MERRY CHRISTMAS 2018 AND HAPPPY NEW YEAR

Hello and welcome back..

Just wanted to wish all my readers of this site a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2018 / 2019.

Also a special 'Thank You' to all readers who supported this site through kind donations using the 'Shout Me a Coffee' tab, you guys are what keeps this site alive, so "Thank You"

I picked this song because it means alot to me.

It was 1984, I had received my first Walkman for Christmas that year and this was the fist song i heard when i switched it on... 'In Stereo' (that was a big deal back then)

It was also the year that both my grandparents came to Christmas lunch and it was truly a memorable moment, now that both have passed away, i just have to close my eyes and listen to this song and it takes me back to Christmas 1984... One that i will never forget.

Merry Christmas, see you next year.

Michael Bailey xx

FOREIGNER - WAITING FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU (5.1 SACD Mix)

Hello and welcome back... This sounds magic

Found this while traveling Youtube.

Its a 5.1 SACD (Super Audio CD) surround mix of 'Foreigner - Waiting For A Girl Like You' by YouTube user MarioPindaBR

I wish all music sounded this good, instead of this so called 'Remastering' that pushes the sound so high, it distorts... horrid.

Take a listen, you will see what i mean, try to use a good set of headphones.

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY (Movie)

Hello and welcome back... Went and seen this movie today.

I seen this at my local cinema (Glenbrook) and must say, I was impressed.

The music, the acting and best of all "Live Aid'... Absolutely nailed it, to the point that i got chills several times throughout the film (We will Rock You) was one of those times.
I didn't even get chills when watching Star Wars back in 1982 (Empire strike back?) but i did with this movie.

Bohemian Rhapsody is the story of rock band Queen and Freddie Mercury...The loves, the band and of course the music, how songs came together and the personal life of Freddie.

If you get the chance to see this amazing movie, do so.

I'm not a big fan of Queen 70s music, mostly love the 80s stuff and of course 'Live Aid' but its given me a new look at the early Queen.

Seriously, if this movie doesn't win awards... There is something wrong.

For me, Its a 10/10

FUNDING DRIVE

Hello and welcome back...

I will say this first... I hate asking for money

But, sadly its what makes the world go round, it also helps support websites like this, not only in extra storage but music content... Good quality music content, mostly from original CDs using AAC 320kbps files... This costs money

Why don't you go out to work? i hear you ask..

Sadly my working days are behind me, thanks to several medical problems, i wont bore you with details but it involved a car going 90kmph and a bike (i was on the bike).. A smashed pelvis, back problems, shoulder problem, ect, ect... = Pain and more pain now is a part of my life, but im not ungrateful, im alive and i have music, dont get me wrong, i can still do a few thing, but God, it hurts.

Proof i hear you say, photo or it didn't happen... see below

 This was me, spending 4 months in hospital with 4 breaks to my pelvis

The scar that you see here was because of internal bleeding, when the pelvis broke, it cut the main arteries to my legs that then bleed into my stomach, died twice and 24 blood transfusions later.


So, where are i going with this?

What i'm asking is for donations this weekend to keep the content coming in, and to help with storage costs. In return i will provide this site and you guys (music lovers) with interesting and sometimes rare versions of albums in high quality for your enjoyment.

All i ask this weekend, is that if you like this site, just click on the "Shout Me A Coffee Fund" on the top right corner of this site and donate $5 or $10 (or more) and it only takes 30 seconds to do but it means so much to me...

Like i said at the start, i hate having to ask for money, but it goes a long way to make life enjoyable and if i can give something back (interesting, high quality music for you to enjoy) then my job is done.

Thanks for reading, and letting me share a small portion of my life with you..


Back to regular Posts shortly

PROMISES - BABY ITS YOU

Hello and welcome back... Just outside the 80s

From 1978 (seems so long ago), Canadian /American band 'Promises' had this wicked sounding track which made it to #1 in New Zealand, #2 in Australia #4 in Germany.

The lady at the front with the huge voice is 'Leslie Maria Knauer', shirtless synth player is 'Benny Knauer' and guitars was 'Jed Knauer'... Yes, they are all related.

Love the early synths in this, sounds amazing...

SANDRA - WE'LL BE TOGETHER

Hello and welcome back... Absolutely loving this..

From the 1988 album 'Into A Secret Land' comes this amazing track 'We'll Be Together' by German singer 'Sandra'

'We'll Be Together' made it to #9 in the German music charts and was co-written by Sandra, most other tracks were written / produced by her partner 'Michael Cretu' who was also huge in Europe

This song is everything i love about the 80s, amazing vocals, lush melodies and lyrics you can sing to.

Its a shame that here in Australia, we never heard of Sandra... Only wish i had found out sooner.
She reminds me a little of early Madonna, in fact, she even managed out-sell more albums than Madonna at one stage.

Defiantly a song to play up loud... Enjoy

THE INTERNET OF THINGS

Hello and welcome back... A small rant

I love Ebay, there are so many CDs, so little time..

I buy and sell several CDs a week. Most of the time its smooth sailing.

But their seems to be a practice by a few CD sellers that seem to think its O.K to hold on your purchased goods for 1 -2 -3 weeks before posting your items...

You see, when i sell a CD, within that day, i will head to the post office and bid that beloved CD
bon-voyage as i send it on its way to its new owner.

So, it pisses me when i stumble across certian sellers who use the excuse 'Its Being Processed'... for 2 bloody weeks?... Seriously, put it in a jiffy bag and sent it to me... You've got my bloody money.

Speaking of money, for those who have never sold anything on Ebay, when you buy something, the money is held by Paypal until everything is finalised then in about 1 -2 - 4 weeks later, they release the money, that way if there are any discrepancies, the money can be refunded, which is fair enough.

BUT, certain sellers will hold posting your item until the payment has been cleared and then decide to post it, a few weeks later.

I already have a list of sellers who live by this practice and will not be buying from them again. Not a good way to do business

I am currently in this situation again. I stupidly (without checking their terms and conditions) brough a fairly rare CD (which i will share with you) when it finally arrives.

Its being Processed... Still

12INCH DANCE - AUSTRALIAN POP OF THE 80S

Hello and welcome back...

Back in the 80s, if you really, really, really loved a song, you would go and buy the 12inch of that song, and gaze in amazement that your fav song sometimes sounded even better than it did previously.

I was one of those people, and towards the end of the 80s, even ventured into the city to specialist shops to buy 12inch imports to add to my collection.

The 12inch dance mix was my fav, as was certain dub mixes.

In this collection (Taken from CD) we explore Australian 12inch tracks, some are quite rare and some, well, they really shouldn't have bothered.



I chuckle to myself as some these tracks that made it to a professionally made CD that they sell in shops, some versions are pretty chronic, sounding like they were recorded from a dodgy tape deck or even... (Cough), a Youtube stream... don't even get me started on the volume differences.

Still its better than nothing... Enjoy

STEVE MILLER BAND - I WANT TO MAKE THE WORLD TURN AROUND

Hello and welcome back... Stunning song this.

From their 1986 album 'Living in the 20th Century' (2nd song) comes this lush sounding track called 'I Want To Make The World Turn Around' which made to #1 in the U.S Rock Charts (stayed there for six weeks).
The Saxophone is played by Kenny G.

I had actually forgotten this song, until i found a tape called 'Classic Tracks' which i recorded around the late 80s.

Take a listen and be swept away by this magic song.

Hello and welcome back... Been looking for this song for years, exept??

This song was only known to me by an Australian Actress / Singer 'Jo Beth Taylor' who did a version of this song back in 1986 and was aired on TV show 'Hey Hey, Its Saturday'... The video has long disappeared.

And, I found it again, the original version sung by Marianne Faithfull.

Its a powerful ballad, sweet but haunting at the same time.

Hello and welcome back... Lately iv'e been checking out some of my Fav T.V shows from the 80s & 90s. These include shows like Magnum P.I, Knight Rider, Sliders and... Baywatch.

And this is where this song comes in. You probably don't recognize the name but you will know the song 'Im always here' as the Baywatch theme.

Jimi Jamison was the frontman for 80s band 'Survivor' (think Eye of the Tiger).

Sadly in Sept 2014, Jimi died of a heart attack, he was only 63 years young

Such a mad song... Turn it up :)

JIMI JAMISON - IM ALWAYS HERE
