Syntonic (album)

Syntonic is the second album by Kon Kan, released in 1990 by Atlantic Records. Syntonic was the first Kon Kan album to solely feature Barry Harris; Kevin Wynne had departed the previous year.
Two singles were released from the album: "Liberty!" and " I Told You So", the latter featuring a recreation of Jimmy Soul's 1963 number one hit, "If You Wanna Be Happy".
"Time" features a recreation of Canadian band Trooper's "We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)".
Four songs were co-written with Bob Mitchell, who had also co-written Cheap Trick's 1988 number one hit, "The Flame", and songs on Kon Kan's previous album.
Four tracks were produced or co-produced by renowned disco producer John Luongo, who had also worked with Blancmange in the early 1980s.
Two tracks were co-produced by Paul Robb, a member of Minnesota band Information Society.
"Victim" was originally a 1978 Candi Staton single. The Kon Kan version was originally conceived as a duet featuring Tim Curry and Carole Pope.
