Silver Convention ~ Fly, Robin, Fly 1974 Disco Purrfection Version
Silvester Levay and Micheal Kunze met when Kunze was looking for an arranger and was impressed by Levay's professionalism. Levay brought him an instrumental he was working on and Kunze felt that it was missing strings. While in the session to record them, they added some background singers and realized that they had hit on something big. The song they recorded that day was entitled "Save Me" and was the first single issued by Silver Convention and became a big hit in European discos. Kunze asked if Levay had anything else and he brought in a song called "Run Rabbit Run". The song was hot, but the lyrics were not. After a night of sleeping on it and a half hour before the women were to arrive at the studio, Kunze heard a song on the radio called "Run, Rabbit" and told Levay. He immediately answered with "Fly, Robin, Fly" using the same singers who recorded "Save Me". The tune hit in the discos first, hitting #1 on September 27th spending three weeks there. The US ignored "Save Me" but radio jumped on "Fly, Robin, Fly" and seven weeks later was sitting comfortably at #1 on th Hot100 and stayed there for three weeks. Thus the need for singers who would tour became apparent and the three women who sang declined to participate. At this point Penny McLean, Ramona Wulf and Linda G Thompson became Silver Convention and recorded "Get Up & Boogie", a #2 pop hit. The Silver Convention quietly wound down, but Levay's song "Who Do You Think You're Foolin'" found its way onto Donna Summer's "The Wanderer" LP and into Giorgio Moroder's universe. Levay turned to composing and has had success with the TV themes to "Airwolf", "Otherworld", "Double Dare" and the film score for "The Creator".
