Why I Do This
I was lucky enough to be a teenager through the eighties and I was mad on music, big hair, bad make-up and all that went with being a teenager of the times. All these years later I still have the big hair but now it is "touched" with grey and the bad make-up is gone but the tunes still play loudly in my head and even louder if they grace my radio, tv or mp3player. I will gladly admit to being a"mainstream" fan for the most part but I do have the odd liking for some of the less "played to death" bands of the time. What started all this was a drawer full of slowly decaying cassettes and a fear of losing the music that is on them. So I began to recreate them onto CD and I am loving it and finding some fantastic albums along the way.
I would like to re-dedicate this site to my late husband, he lost his long battle with cancer in 2011, he was a huge 80's fan, possibly even more so than myself. So for you my love.

Great album - I have this on LP but I seldom play it and it is in good condition - all that's needed is a working turntable and Goldwave music studio...
Perhaps the best song on this album is Poison Arrow - ABC. I first heard this on my birthday in 82.
Thanks Meggsy. Brings back some great memories.
Just downloaded a cd (lossless)version on Utorrent.
It sounds fantastic & very close to
original.
A MUST GET!!
