Actually, Athletico Spizz and Gruppo Sportivo are the same band (I believe).
Gruppo had a tendancy to change their band name every other week or so
(not unlike The KLF).  And yes, you can find this on "URGH!", a great
live compilation featuring some of favorite bands such as XTC, Gary Numan,
Gang of Four, etc, etc.  It's worth the price of the double album just for
Klaus Nomi's "Total Eclipse".

As for MY favorite KaTe song:  Breathing
Song that turned me into a KaTe FaN:  The Man with the Child in his Eyes
Bonus Questions:
LEAST favorite KaTe song:  Dreamtime (an insturmental version of The Dreaming,
which is odd because The Dreaming is one of my favorite KaTeSoNgZ).
Favorite Kate Video:  The Big Sky, Cloudbusting (tie)
Favorite Album Side:  HOL, side 2
Favorite Cover:  The Dreaming
Least favorite album side:  Lionheart, side 2
and, FAVORITE ALBUM (no surprise here):  THE DREAMING!!! YAAAY!!!!
