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...

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

DOUG MULRAY - YOU ARE SOUL

 Hello and Welcome back... Used to love listening to Uncle Doug on Triple M.

From 1986 came this trippy little number.

Every one wanted a Little Doug Mulray in the 80s, they used to say 'You Are.. You Are Soul'.. (Can you feel it?)

Put Your Hands on The Radio Everybody and feel the Loooove

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.
