SABRINA - BOYS (Lost Hit)

Hello and welcome back..

Italian songstress Sabina ( Sabrina Salerno ) graced our screens back in 1987 with the hit "Boys".
The video to this song caused a huge controversy due to the fact that she was wearing a swimming costume that seemed to have a mind of its own.. so due to that, this video was banned in the U.K until it was edited.
It is one of the most downloaded video clips ever shown ( 14 million and counting ).
Apart from the eye candy, the song is quiet catchy and the album ( Sabrina ) also had the hit "sexy girl" which was also a huge hit.....Belissima

COLLETTE - RING MY BELL ( Lost Hit )

Hello and welcome back... In 1989, it became quiet fashionable to wear your gym wear as your normal attire.
Collette ( Collette Roberts ) did this very well, dancing hi-energy in her bike pants and bra top, she released "Ring my Bell" ( an Anita ward cover ).
I don't mind this song, it's very catchy with the acid sound that was popular around this era.
She also had another song which did well called "All i want to do is Dance" and came of the same album "Raze the Roof".

MI-SEX - 79-85 ( best of )

Hello and welcome back... Yet another band that had heavy presence on countdown, Mi-sex was a New Zealand/Australian new wave band that had a huge hit called "computer games"...

Its chocked with hits like "but you don't care", "castaway", "falling in and out", "people", "computer games", "space race" and my pick of the album would be "blue day" with its moody synths and the amazing voice of Steve Gilpin.The band continued till 1984 then disbanded then Steve was working with a band called "under rapz". In 1992 Steve was involved in a car accident and lapsed into a coma and died. The album 79-85 is a collection of 3 albums... "graffiti crimes", "space race" and "shanghaied" and even has a best of song called "non stop sex" ...

MEO245 - SCREEN MEMORY (lost band)

Hello and welcome back... Countdown was an Australian music show back in the 80s, kinda similar to "top of the pops" in the U.K and was the platform for most bands to gain exposure.One of those bands was Meo245 ( named after a catalog number for German imported Beatles album ) who was a Tasmanian new wave band before moving to Melbourne and could be classed as a "one hit wonder" band. The album screen memory was set free in 1980 and had the hit "lady love". My pick of the album would be "other places" with its twangy guitars and smooth synths, For me... this is one of those albums that is excellent from start to finish and has a sound that envelops classic Australian  music, in a nutshell... its brilliant. In 1983 the band disbanded and the synth player went on to play in the band " the little heroes " ( one perfect day ).
Track listings are =

1 = other places


2 = jewels


3 = burning bridges

4 = promises

5 = closing in

6 = white lies

7 = will he ever

8 = so far away

9 = generator

10 = wrong world

11 = lady love


LITTLE HEROES - one perfect day   1982


So many memories... CLICK HERE to Download & listen to songs from this album and more from my Mixtape series.....Cheers

HOUSE OF LOVE - shine on ( lost hit )

Hello, welcome back.. In late 89 i was involved in a nasty car accident ( SEE HERE ) and spent alot of time listening to the radio... this song came on quiet often and i actually rang the radio station wondering what it was called ... to sum it up, its very catchy.. more guitar driven than synth which sometimes is a refreshing break. The band is from the U.K and had a kinda psychedelic sound to it and the song "shine on" was from the album fontana ( butterfly album ) and reached top 20. Hope you enjoy
