Madison Square – Happiness (Germany 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987

“Happiness” is a 1987 single by German band Madison Square. This single is truly one of those obscure 80’s records I could not find any information about this band anywhere on the internet. According to Discogs they never released a full album and this was their only single release. Kind of a shame because this record is really pretty good. I hope you give it a listen and like it too.
