Biography
In 1981, the band released an EP, Magazine 60, by Barclay Records. It sold over 260,000 copies in France, making the Top Ten, and became a gold record. One of the original singers, Danielle Delval left the band that year and was replaced by Michele Callewart. In 1982, the band released their first album, 60's Slows, which sold over 280,000 copies and made Top Ten. The band then released two music videos internationally and went on tour.
After several more line-up changes, the band decided to take a new direction in the mid-1980s. Pierre (Dit El Chico), Dominique,Véromique released the singles "Don Quichotte (No Están Aqui)" and "Rendez-vous sur la Costa del Sol," both of which appeared on the 1985 album that followed, Costa del Sol. "Don Quichotte" became the band's most successful hit in the U.S. However, the Costa del Sol album would not be released in America until 1987, by which point, the group had lost momentum there.
In 2007, the singer of The Black Eyed Peas, Will.i.am, sample resumes Don Quichotte in his song I Got it from My Mama. By June 2013, the music of Don Quichotte tube (No estan aqu) starring Dominique and Pierre resumed, this time in an advertising Sosh the mobile brand. A single entitled Don Quichotte - Edit TV comes in the wake still under the name Magazine 60. The title is also on the compilation Hit 2013 - Special September.
