THE PROMISE - HEART TO SELL

Hello and welcome back... Funny story this one.

I had a dream the other night. I was at a convention of some sort and this guy introduced himself as being in a band called "The Promise", he then asked me who i was and i replied that my name was Michael Bailey and i was from the band 'Dream Sequence'...
'Aahh yes', he replied, 'ive heard of you'... which i was pretty chuffed because not many people know of my band... and then, thats all i remember.

So, where am i going with this?

I checked the internet this morning and turns out there is an Australian band called 'The Promise' which is surprising because i had never heard of this band before... and, they had a kick arse track back in 1984 called 'Heart to Sell'
Love the bass in this song, also a big 'Thanks' to the bass player (Kerry Dunne) for putting the track on YouTube for all to hear...
Am i destined to meet this band?... only time will tell.

Hello and welcome back.... Wow, this brings back memories..

The Skatt Brothers (or Skatt Bros.) was a band from Los Angeles, California formed in 1979. At first they were compared to bands like the Village People for parallels in music, but later returned to their more rockish roots
