Dollar

Dollar were a British pop group, formed in 1978 and led by vocal duo David Van Day and Thereza Bazar. They had a string of hit singles between 1979 and 1982, some of which were produced and written by Trevor Horn (member of Buggles, Yes and Art Of Noise, and producer of ABC). The couple split both artistically and romantically in 1983. Dollar re-formed in 1986 enjoying a further hit with 'Oh L'Amour', originally recorded by Erasure, before splitting up again shortly after. Occasional live reunions have taken place from 2002 onwards, including a Trevor Horn tribute show in 2004.
