A superb British duo. Yes I said British. They were born in the states, they have American accents, they may still have American passports. However the British people have adopted them as our own. Britain will always be their home.
Just saw the Edgar Wright documentary about these guys and it's wonderful. I thought I was already a fan of theirs but I still found new sides to them. I recommend it.
So ahead of their time, you can see they influenced Scissor Sisters/Jake Shears but they fall by the wayside and the original Sparks live on because they are so unique, charismatic and intelligent.
Love it... Die Zeiten waren friedlicher, die Musik eh besser, bin glücklich, wenn ich meine Sparks hören kann, die heuer keine Sau mehr kennt. Ältere Menschen haben schon auch manchmal .

Where and when? I can't see that? If Russell sounds stoned, it doesn't mean he is. He "normally" (on interviews) varies between focused and to have a drifting mind. I guess his personality, you can see (and hear on audio/radio) that on interviews from early/mid seventies. A bit of a dreamer 😂?
