Globos - The Beat Goes On (single)
The Globos were a musical comedy cabaret group formed in Melbourne in 1980 by Mark Trevorrow.... famously known as Bob Downe and Wendy De Waal.
The Beat Goes On, is the second single release for The Globos..
Their first single was Tintarella Di Luna and was featured many times on Countdown. In fact, Mark and Wendy hosted the Countdown show on 2 occasions.
The group mimed old records and commercials, in a loving and hilarious recreation of early Australian TV pop shows, and then recorded and mimed their own material.
Below is a great clip from the old Simon Townsend's Wonder World with Jono Coleman as the reporter. It's a classic... with Tintarella Di Luna ----

Mark Trevorrow as Chip Wood
Wendy De Waal as Gloria
