Talented brothers from Netherlands....they should have been huge! Their consistency with melodies put both Duran Duran and Human League and many other bands to shame. And music fans in USA missed a lot by not being exposed to these guys

They were also producers behind Falco (Komissar, Rock me Amadeus) and they also released solo albums

Status Quo covered their "In the Army Now"... originally written and performed by Bollands....Super song/

I have

Silent Partners - SUPER New wave-pop
Brotherology - not as good as Silent Partners, but great still

I've been looking for Domnino Theory on CD, but it's rare :(

I agree, they were sadly overlooked. I'd love it if the late 1979 gem Good For Gold came to CD (unless it did and I missed this one). I also have the ones you mention and they wrote some absolute gems. Some of their earlier material has the sound of 10cc at their very best.
