Way back in 1971 Todd Rungren produced a debut album by an odd little band called Half Nelson. Very shortly after this they changed the band name to Sparks, and I guess you'll know some of what happened thereafter. Fast forward to the new documentary by Edgar Wright about Sparks. As part of its record of their early years that first producer Todd Rungren is interviewed. Shortly after that a demo track from Sparks is sent to him, what could he do to improve it? The result is Your Fandango, a small gem of a track, with a characterful video starring its director - Liisa Vääriskoski. Four minutes twenty four seconds of mischievous fun and delight.
