I did always wonder though... the scandal was w/ the company and the imposters using other peoples' music, so.... why did the band just die instead of the actual singers getting to continue w/ the popularity and success their music had garnered? People obviously liked their music, why didn't they get to become big name artists after the truth came out? The producer (Frank Farian, a first-class asshole) had specifically selected Rob and Fab as the public face of the singers because he didn't think they were photogenic enough to be pop stars. After the whole thing blew up, he washed his hands of it and let the project die. And in that era, it would have been very difficult to find information/photos of some random studio singers. --- The world may be going to Hell, but I am personally awash with convenience. <cite>DiScOrDtHeLuNaTiC posted [p:979909739] in Are you ol...
