The Pointer Sisters could do no wrong between the late 70s through to the mid 80s when they had a string of consecutive hit singles. He’s So Shy was an exceptional inclusion securing a peak position in the Australian Top 10 in 1980

In 1979 ABBA joined the disco club with their album and title track single Voulez-Vous. Some people call it dirty ABBA. The song peaked at No.3 in the UK but didn’t fair so well in Australia where it only peaked at a shocking No. 79
