Baccara was a female vocal duo formed in 1977
by Spanish artists Mayte Mateos (born 7 February 1951) and María Mendiola (4
April 1952 – 11 September 2021). The duo rapidly achieved international success
with their debut single "Yes Sir, I
Can Boogie", which reached number one across
much of Europe and became the best-selling
single of all time by a female group,
eventually selling more than 18 million copies worldwide. 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 their blend of disco,
pop and Spanish folk music was no
longer fashionable, and by 1983 Mateos and 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 reverted to Baccara and as a
consequence both Mateos and Mendiola headed different duos with the same name.
Both principals 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.
Baccara is the debut studio album by Spanish duo Baccara, first
released on RCA Victor in Germany in 1977. It contains
the European hit singles
"Yes Sir, I
Can Boogie" and "Sorry, I'm a Lady".
The rights to the RCA-Victor back catalogue
are currently held by Sony BMG
Music Entertainment - the original Baccara album
in its entirety remains unreleased on compact disc.
There is an alternative cover for the album
from Scandinavia featuring the girls standing with a black background. Some
editions of this album feature a limited edition poster. The album was
re-released in Germany in 1982 and featured an entirely different picture
sleeve.
Mister
Your eyes are full of hesitation
Sure makes me wonder
If you know what your looking for
Umm, baby I wan't to keep my reputation
I'm a sensation
You try me once you'll beg for more
Oooohh! Yes sir, I can boogie
But I need a certain song
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay, you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
No sir
I don't feel very much like talking
No neither walking
You wanna know if I can dance
Yes sir, already told you in the first verse
and in the chorus
But I will give you one more chance
Ooohh! Yes sir, I can boogie
But I need a certain song
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay, you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay, you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
But I need a certain song
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long
Yes sir, I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie woogie all night long.
