Interesting Facts
David Hallyday's Musical Heritage
David Hallyday, the lead vocalist of Blind Fish, brings an impressive musical lineage to the band. Born David Michael Benjamin Smet, he is the son of French rock and roll icon Johnny Hallyday and Bulgarian-French singer Sylvie Vartan. Despite his famous parentage, David established his own musical identity, first making waves in Europe with his solo hit "High" in the late 1980s before joining forces with Blind Fish. His multicultural background (French and American upbringing) gives a unique perspective to his vocal delivery and songwriting approach.
Trans-Atlantic Musical Collaboration
Blind Fish represents an interesting trans-Atlantic musical collaboration, combining European sensibilities with American rock influences. The album's production split between Scotti Bros. Industries and Phonogram France reflects this international approach. The band crafted a sound that resonated with both European and American rock audiences, occupying a space between the mainstream and alternative rock movements of the mid-90s.
Scotti Bros. Records Legacy
"2000 BBF" was released on Scotti Bros. Records, a label with an eclectic history founded by Tony and Ben Scotti. The label was known for its diverse roster, having previously released music by artists ranging from Survivor and "Weird Al" Yankovic to James Brown and Leif Garrett. By the mid-90s when this album was released, Scotti Bros. was developing a reputation for supporting artists with unique sounds that didn't necessarily fit neatly into mainstream categories.
