10—The Daily Collegian September 8, 1978
Dittsburgh's Sweet Breeze band is pop, not disco
By KEN FREEMAN
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Some fresh air blew in to State College
this week from Pittsburgh in the form of
Sweet Breeze, a tightly-driven five piece
dance-pop band.
"We're not a disco band," said Greg
Scharpf, sole guitarist of Sweet Breeze,
appearing this. week at Gatsby's.. Their
debut album, tentatively titled "Sum
mer in Malibu" will be • released in
October. "But we have to play some
disco numbers," added Scharpf.
They do not have the look of a disco
band either. When Sweet Breeze gets on
stage in their white attire complete with
white intruments, the first impression is
that of the Archies. But remember the
saying something about a book and its
cover? Greg was quick to point out,
"we're not a bubble-gum band."
Sweet Breeze is five accomplished
musicians who have been playing
together in various bands since high
school days in Pittsburgh and for four
years as Sweet Breeze.
Guitarist Scharpf provides the rhythm

as well as a subtle flowing lead. He
trades off with Joe Dißenedetto who
shines on his synthesizer and numerous
other keyboards. Bassist Freddy Pat
terson and drummer Don Marsico add
the necessary tightness. Marsico shares
lead vocals with Art Bonavoqlia whn
contributes a Latin flavor.
Marsico sings on most of the fast
numbers with a strong, sometimes truly
inspiring raunchy sound while
Bonavoqlia features a smooth, silky
vocal that might remind you of Eric
Carmen. Often, all members combine in
harmonies that echo Beach Boys and
Temptations
Their version of "California Girls" is a
highlight. Before performing an original
song titled "A Beach Boys Song," the
band introduced it with, "This is for our
heroes." This original number is a
glorious tribute to The Beach Boys.
Here's a band that could make it with
that same pop consciousness the The
Raspberries had. Or Sweet Breeze just
might take over where The Beach Boys
left off.
