KP was a Belgian 1970s band featuring former actors Ludo Koeck and Remi Peeters.
Their most famous release[citation needed] "Go For The Eyes" was a 1974 hit on the Brussels based Pommefrites label (POMME-KP 057), and was a top 10 hit in Denmark[citation needed], West Germany, Poland, and Belgium. It dealt with the then-taboo subject of disabled (blind) sex and claimed in no uncertain terms in the lyrics that both Ray Charles and John Lee Hooker owed all their musical ability to their blindness—something that potential UK distributors found distasteful. The duo's only English language release was "It's Hard To say I Love You (When You're Sitting On My Face)", which mysteriously failed to find an Ulster Covenant distributor.[citation needed] Koeck died in a climbing accident in the Ardennes in 1983. Peeters still plays in the St. Truiden-based folk group Les Trois Skiffleurs Bizarres.
