1988 Boys Club – Boys Club

Boys Club was a pop duo consisting of Gene Hunt and Joe Pasquale from Minneapolis, Minnesota and was created and put together by Don Hunter Powell. They had a big hit with “I Remember Holding You” in 1989, which peaked at #8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. Throughout the greater part of Minnesota, Boys Club was also regarded as “Minnesota’s version of Wham!”. “I Remember Holding You” was their only song to reach the Billboard Hot 100, making them a one-hit wonder. Their second single, “The Loneliest Heart” peaked at #39 on the US Adult Contemporary chart a few months after “I Remember Holding You” had peaked at #4 on the same chart.
