Episode 272 - Roxette

from Dope Nostalgia · host Naomi Carmack

Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson were the duo Roxette. So many smash hits from one of Sweden's finest exports of all time! The loss of Marie in 2019 took a toll on the music world, and Per has kept her memory alive through the band to this day. My guest Patricia runs RoxetteBlog and is an expert on the subject! We talk about their top 90's tracks, The Super Mario Bros. Soundtrack contribution "Almost Unreal", Sweden, Joyride The Musical, Per's band Gyllene Tider, and bringing in Lena to form a new version in PG Roxette.
