Metropolis

This group were active in the late 1970s as a disco band that recorded on the Salsoul record label.  The members included the Icelandic keyboardist Thor Bladursson, Nina Baldursson and the British lyricist and producer Pete Bellotte.

They were basically a one-hit wonder although they released a couple of singles in 1978, and their “I Love New York is still heard fairly regularly.  Their album The Greatest Show on Earth was released in 1978.
