BACCARA is a female vocal duo formed in 1977 by Spanish artists Mayte Mateos (7 February 1951, Logroño) and María Mendiola (4 April 1952, Madrid). The pair rapidly achieved international success with their debut single "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie", which reached number one across much of Europe and is one of the best-selling singles of all time. A successful follow-up single ("Sorry, I'm a Lady") and European tour led to a number of album releases, numerous television appearances and the duo's selection to represent Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest 1978.
Despite a substantial following in Spain, Germany and Japan, by 1981 the duo's distinctive blend of disco, pop and Spanish folk music was no longer fashionable, and by 1983 Mayte Mateos and María Mendiola were both working on solo projects. Achieving little success as solo artists, the two formed duos of their own: separate incarnations of the original Baccara appeared during the middle of the decade, with Mendiola fronting New Baccara and Mateos keeping the duo's original name. During the 1990s New Baccara was renamed back to Baccara; as a consequence both Mateos and Mendiola now head different duos with the same name. Both principals have subsequently had prolonged but separate legacy careers based on nostalgia and their earlier fame.
Mendiola's Baccara has seen more international recognition, releasing a string of Hi-NRG club hits such as "Fantasy Boy" and "Touch Me" in the late 1980s and the later UK club hit "Wind Beneath My Wings". Mateos' Baccara has released few new recordings, but has remained in demand for television and live appearances in countries such as Spain and Germany where the original Baccara developed a loyal fan base, performing the duo's back-catalogue and modernised versions of traditional Spanish songs.
 
NEW BACCARA is a disco group who had some hits in the 80's with the singles "Call Me Up", "Fantasy Boy" and "Touch Me". The super group worked with euro-disco producer Luis Rodriguez (Modern Talking, Creative Connection ect.), together with the songwriter and producer Reinhardt Frantz (Sweet Connection, Casablanca, Pepper Girls). Reihardt Franzt with Ian Cussick and Lee Smith wrote songs for Maria Mendiola (ex Baccara) and Maryse Peres. Maria was the writer of the spanish lyrics of the song Talisman (B side and spanish version of Call Me Up). Today their older records are rarities. These days, as well as several times in the past, the group has droped the "New" and chosen to be known simply as Baccara. The most recent things released by them are the 2002 remixes of "Wind Beneath My Wings" & the 2005 remixes of their re-recording of "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie".

MOSKWA TV "Tekno Talk (Bombing Mix)" 1985 italo disco electro hi-nrg eurobeat 80s Classic

"Tekno Talk"
(Bombing Mix) 1985
 

The Classic 1985 "Bombing Mix" featuring United States President Ronald Reagan's 1984 "We begin bombing in five minutes" audio recording.

On August 11, 1984, United States President Ronald Reagan, while running for re-election, was preparing to make his weekly Saturday radio address on National Public Radio. As a sound check prior to the address, Reagan made the following joke to the radio technicians: "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes." The joke was a parody of the opening line of that day's speech: "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you that today I signed legislation that will allow student religious groups to begin enjoying a right they've too long been denied — the freedom to meet in public high schools during nonschool hours, just as other student groups are allowed to do."

Contrary to popular misconception, this microphone gaffe was not broadcast over the air, but rather leaked later to the general populace. But the Tokyo newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun reported in October 1984 that the Soviet Far East Army was placed on alert after word of the statement got out, and that the alert was not withdrawn until 30 minutes later. An unnamed aide to US Representative Michael Barnes (D-Md.) confirmed that the Pentagon was aware of the alert. There was no report of any change in the DEFCON level for the United States. The Soviet reaction, and mild confusion it created, was covered by NBC news anchor Tom Brokaw, which has since been uploaded to internet video hosting websites.

This was not the first time Reagan had joked prior to giving a speech or address. The Soviet official news agency, TASS, condemned the joke, declaring that "The USSR condemns this unprecedented and hostile attack by the US President" and that "this kind of behavior is incompatible with the great responsibility borne by heads of nuclear states for the destinies of their own people and mankind"
