Zodiacs band
- •
This week, we point the LOUIE spotlight at a 1976 recording by a Dutch band known as Zodiac.
The band Zodiac was formed in Rotterdam (The Netherlands), featuring members of Crown’s Clan. I wasn’t able to find out details on all six of the band members, but some of the core players included vocalist Sylvia van Asten, guitarist Jan Kroon and keyboardist Fred Sammelius.
LOUIE LOUIE was released as a 45 single on the CNR label in 1976, with the song “Back Again” on the flipside.
This may, quite possibly, be the ONLY the version of LOUIE LOUIE that could be categorized as “Dutch Glam Rock Disco.”

The leader of the group, composer Janis Lusens, who was very preoccupied with timbre and the search of sound sets, from organs, to the Soviet Time’s first accessible synthesizers. A very significant occurrence was Lusens’ meeting with firm’s ‘’Melodija’’ Riga branch director and sound director Aleksandrs Griva.
It was a very significant moment in order for the first recordings to happen and for Aleksandrs Griva producing talent to be realized in the first Soviet electric music record Zodiac “Disco Alliance” (1980)
