Easy Going

Italian disco band taking its name from a gay-club in Rome. The group was formed by [a=Paul Micioni] (the disc-jockey of [i]Easy Going[/i], who later became one the creators of [i]Italo-Disco[/i]), and the dancers Francesco Bonanno and Ottavio Siniscalchi (the DJ and the light-jay at Mais [i]"Music and Idea System"[/i]) in Rome. Their first hit of 1978, [i]Baby I Love You[/i], is produced by [a=Giancarlo Meo] & arranged by [a=Claudio Simonetti], both forerunners of the [i]Hi-NRG[/i] and [i]Italo-Disco[/i] scene. Easy Going released two more albums: [i]Fear[/i] (1979) and [i]Casanova[/i] (1980). In the latter work Paul Micioni, who left to work with his brother [a=Peter Micioni], is replaced by singer-dancer [a=Russell Russell].
