Baccara Fan
(news date 18.XII.2001)
(from Lewis Foulke)

Hey,
I used to be a huge Baccara fan in the late 70's/early 80's when I lived in Germany and used to collect every article, album, song etc. I could find. I have lived in the USA for many years now and almost forgot about the ladies until I found a used CD in a store last year and it brought back many great memories. Just for fun I typed in their name and found your website. Great job and it brings me back to being 14 years old. I was wondering since you seem to have a lot of information if you also have access to video tapes of vintage Baccara, when Maria and Mayte were still performing together. I would LOVE to buy a copy. I have e-mailed a couple of the people on your site who talked about video tapes, but did not get a response. So I figured I would ask you. Especially the years 1977, 78, 79, 80 interest me but anything would be great.
Could you please let me know. And keep up the great work!
Fellow Baccara Fan
Lewis

(from Sergey Semenov)

Hello
With the best regards from Russia. Sorry for my bad English.
I take the opportunity of expressing to you my gratitude for your site about the Baccara. For a long time I take a great interest in creativity of the Baccara. I collect a various information about the duet, including their lyrics. Till this day I can't find the texts of the songs:
Spend The Night
Boogaloo
Colorado
Ohio
Yummy, Yummy, Yummy
My Kisses Need A Cavalier
Bad Boys

And now exotic request: could not you write the text to these songs by hearing if you haven't an original? Because of my bad knowledge of language I can not make it. If it is possible, please, help me. Thank you.
Sergey.

Baccara fans still exist!
(news date 15.IX.2001)
(from Tanya Shilson)

Hi,
I found your site on Baccara and had to email you! I absolutely love Baccara and Maytes solo records.
I have had trouble finding fans who spoke English until I saw your site.
In "Yahoo! Clubs I started one for Baccara fans called YES SIR,WE LOVE BACCARA. Unfortunately most people who saw it could not speak English, but it has had about 400 views...so Baccara fans still exist!
I had a few things I wanted to find out about.
I don't have the Bad Boys lp,but have the Russian Baccara Collection cd. It features 8 tracks from that album. How many tracks are on the whole LP?
Is there an album containing "I do,I do" from Mayte. I just have that single plus Roses and wine.
Is "Devil sent.." and "Sleepy time toy" the only non lp singles..or are there others.
I hope to hear from you because I really need to discuss Baccara with another big fan.
thanks,
Tanya

Baccara in Münster/Germany
(news date 23.VII.2001)
(from Jörg)

Hi Roman,
I´m a big Baccara-fan and quite often check out your homepage for news - you´re doing a fine job there!!!
This is just to inform you about a live-gig that Baccara are going to do in my hometown Münster (Germany) on Saturday, August 4th. They´re going to perform at the "Hammerstraßenfest", which is a local party that takes place here every year, usually with one interesting highlight - this year Baccara (as far as I know, it´s going to be Maria and Marisa).
Unfortunately, and as you can imagine, very, very much to my regret, I won´t be here myself, as I had already booked a holiday in Spain (!) for exactly that time (strange and absurd somehow, but that´s life...). Anyway, I have asked some of my friends to take pictures and to report to me every detail of the performance when I´m back.
Maybe you want to include this information on your homepage, so that fans from around this area are well-informed and can enjoy the live-gig.
Best wishes,
Jörg

Fan number 1 from Spain...
(news date 3.III.2001)
(from José Félix)

Hi Roman!
Congratulations for your superb work on Baccara Page. I´m fan number 1 from Spain. Mad about these 2 (should I say 3,4,5,6?) girls.
I´ve got almost all their records and much taped material.
The two original girls were Mayte Mateos and Maria Mendiola, not Mendiolo, nor Matee or anything like that.
I have many information on Baccara troughout the years. It is difficult to find CDs in Spain (!), specially with Mayte on the duo. Maria and Marisa are more widely Known.
There is so much information I´d like to write about Baccara I don´t know where to start. Maria and Mayte met on Spanish TV as dancers. They become friends and there was only one TV on Spain at that time (TV1). Franco was still alive. The idea of performing together was Maria´s. They spent all the money they had on making dresses (not black an white yet, rather glittering) and danced sinchronysed imitating the Keller twin sisters from Germany, if yoy can recall.
But I won´t go on boring you with the story we all know. I´d rather give some interesting and rare information.
For example, single from "Colours" with A side "Body Talk", B side "By 1999", was also released in Spanish. The title songs were "Baila tu" and "En el año 2000".
"The devil sent to to Laredo" was also released in Spanish as "El diablo te mandó a Laredo". Side B was "Somewhere in Paradise" as well. By the way, "Baila tú" single cover was the one pirated for "Baccara Rare Songs" I see on your page. That´s a pirate CD indeed.
I can´t go on right now, but I pronmise to keep up with details.
Regards. Baccara 4ever,

José Félix.

Hi Roman!
Just found your web site. You've done a great job. It is really good!
I'm a huge Baccara fan and I have been since Yes Sir was number 1 here in England.
I've read your discography and you don't seem to mention the Maria album 'Made in Spain' from 1999. Someone does mention it in your 1999 newsletter but I thought you might like a picture of the album cover & track listing top add to the discography.
Keep up the good work & if you need any help proof-reading your newsletters, I'm more than happy to help - I'm a language teacher!

News from Belgium
(news date 6.I.2001)
(from Peter Goessens)

Hello from Belgium!
First of all, my best wishes to you for a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!
Congratulations with your wonderful website. I've really enjoyed visiting it very.
Please let me introduce myself: my name is Peter Goessens (27) and I am a music lover from Belgium, the small 'chocolate' country in Europe. My wife and I are both great admirers of music festivals and, in particular, of the Eurovision Song Contest.
While visiting the Yamaha website several months ago, we came across some webpages devoted to the World Popular Song Festival, an annual music event held from 1970 until 1989 under the guidance of the Yamaha Music Foundation and involving artists from all over the world. Given the number of well-known artists having participated in this contest, my wife and I have starting searching the internet for more information and have become highly fascinated by this cosmopolitan festival.
I've noticed on your website that you are a great fan of Baccara. As you will know, Baccara did not only participate in the Eurovision Song Contest (1978), but they also participated in the 8th edition of the Yamaha World Popular Song Festival (Tokyo - November 1977), representing then West-Germany with the song "Mad in Madrid", written by Frank Dostal and Rolf Soja.
In your Baccara Discography list, it is mentioned that "Mad in Madrid" was released as B-side to the single "Darling". Do you know if this single is still available today or if the song "Mad in Madrid" is also available on LP or CD? I would very much like to find this song as it would give me the opportunity to add it to my (modest) collection of WPSF songs. Or if the song "Mad in Madrid" is part of your own personal Baccara collection, would it be possible for me to send you an audiocassette on which you could record the song? Of course, I will pay in advance for any costs you have (taping, P&P,...). Just let me know! It would be so great if I could actually add the song to my collection. Many, many thanks in advance for your reply!!!!
Looking forward to hearing from you soon and wishing you all the best with your wonderful site, I remain
With kind regards
Peter Goessens

New website
(news date 1.I.2001)
(from Roar Odegaard)

Dear Roman
I'm glad to have found another Baccara fan on the net!
I have been a fan of Baccara in over ten years time. My parents liked Baccara and I just had to grab their old vinyls and transfer them into my own collection. It's hard to get hold of Baccara stuff and if I tend to find anything the price is often too high. Half of my collection I have bought abroad. If you want to learn about more Baccara released you could try to take a glimpse on a part on my home page:
http://www.geocities.com/roarod/baccara.html
I'm trying to compile a complete list of released og Baccara. That's hard! The years as New Baccara is the most difficult period. The albums "Born again", "Best" and "Bad Boys" on your home page I have never even heard about! The singles "Eins Ist Eins Ist Eins" and "Higher And Higher" also interest me alot! Do you know anything about them?
A friend of mine has a 12" single of Yes Sir, I Can Boogie from 1990. If I recall right, it has 4 remixes. It's a couple of years since I heard them.
Best wishes
Roar Odegaard
