Gruppo Sportivo — Rare Tracks

Gruppo Sportivo released a pair of singles in 1976 and ’77, prior to the album “10 Mistakes” being released. After that and their second album came out, those singles and a bonus track were put together onto this very brief compilation. I found this somewhere around 1982, no particular idea where, and honestly, it never got much play. They show promise, but they’re not what would come.

Also, the cover is abominable. It just has nothing to do with Gruppo Sportivo, the music, anything.
