The Morse Code Of Love: The Capris And Manhattan Transfer

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .





From the first "Dip - Dop - Diddy..," RadioDAZZ promises that you will be swept away by this song. Further, he certifies that you will have this song playing in your head every single day for at least a week.

The Morse Code Of Love, was an underplayed hit for the Capris in 1982, but you'd swear it was an HQ recording stolen out of a 1950s time machine and enhanced by Spielberg and James Cameron (my attorneys). It is upbeat, bright, rhythmic, and catchy to the point of musical contagion. It is joy in a single.

Manhattan Transfer (yep - the ones who did the powerful remake of the hit "The Boy From New York City" and made it world renowned) added the song to their touring repertoire a few years later at spread it far and wide.

I've included both the Capris' original version as well as the Manhattan Transfer cover to this post for your double pleasure and newly-discovered treasure.

Click away, mates! And remember, DAZZ says that louder is better for one like this. When you've listened to it, forward this post to some friends and make their day [apologies to Clint Eastwood] -- they'll love you for it. No kidding. Litter your Twitter with links and RTs.
