[@AgentB7]

With all the deserved praise for Laura, I would like to mention her producers and their inspiration. Spanish Eddie was an NYC mafioso who went far out of his way to establish a citywide truce and reduce street violence. He got shot while doing so, yet survived, and the meeting actually happened and the truce was established. This song commemorates one of the greatest diplomats of the 20th century. Cudos!

[@allenscott68]

Zulu swashbuckler. Agent b7 I heard and read that it was about some policeman in the 70s who tried to make a truce between the gangs but was not very successful maybe what I heard and read was not accurate if it wasn't sorry definitely don't want to tarnish the name of someone that was trying to do something heroic especially with something like this.

In other words, songs that you can enjoy endlessly...! "Spanish Eddie... " released in 1985 and still popular in 2023. Laura BRANIGAN... pure youth sentiment and American top class...!

She did pretty well in the States, but judging from the comments, she seems to have done even better outside the US. Either way, she had a magnificent voice and it's too bad she had such a tough life (left music to care for her husband, widowed, then died young from natural causes).
