CinisterCee said:

where did that google cached image of the album cover go

I can find a tracklist, but why is that shit so elusive??

Ah, Red Box.

The Circle and the Square was re-issued in Japan on CD about 5 years ago (and I managed to get a copy after 10 years of searching). It's got a lyric book in both English and Japanese and is easily one of my favourite albums.

They also did a follow-up album called 'Motive' which was less poppy and was more of a grower than an instant fix. Still an excellent album though.

I also recommend this;

It's an odd CD and a real unorthodox album, consisting mostly of lovely instrumentals with the odd vocal track here and there.

Musicology (rare concert promo edition)

One of my favorite movies from the 80's -- "All the Right Moves" with Tom Cruise-- ends with a very moving song: "Blue Skies Forever."

I always rewind the DVD over and over to listen to this beautiful song.


I wish I could find it on CD but the soundtrack is out of print and the rare and the relatively obscure singer, Frankie Miller, never put this song on an album.

Download searches only turn up that horrible namesake album by the obnoxious, irreverent, and irrelevant Mary Prankster.

I think the soundtrack's record company went out of business or something. Can't find it on amazon, ebay or second spin. Not even Froogle can find the soundtrack for me.


But it's a fucking beautiful song.

"In this dying town that takes away your soul, you've got to dream the strongest dream until the good times roll. And look for blue skies forever ... blue skies forevermore."

"The Family" - The Family

WOW -- I almost forgot about this one! Skill, Swift, and the King of Chill! This was the ALBUM back in the day; I have the title track on cassette around here somewhere. I also loved "Leeches".

Leeches...blood-sucking parasites...

Raw Power is in print - I don't know if the original "Bowie Mix" is still available, but the Iggy-approved remastered release is definitely out there for the taking.

SO jealous. I can't even find a second-hand cassette of this.
I have NEVER ever in my life seen it in the store and passed it up, either.

I have his first self titled album on CD but his next two albums are hard to get on CD.

WELL WELL WELL


Guess what I fuckin' finally found yesterday, albeit on cassette.

The First Priority Family / Basement Flavor!!!!!

I know you prefer vinyl but I saw that CD in a lot of record stores last year as well as two or three other Cameo albums on CD. In another thread, a lot of orgers were saying these albums were out of print and I thought they were crazy. When I was in the record store last weekend, I saw they were right. All the Cameo CDs are gone except for greatest hits albums. It's funny how they would pull them all at the same time so quickly.

The 12 Inch of The Barkays "Do It (Let Me See You Shake)".

Did anything by REGINA get CD pressing? I'm looking for the song "Baby Love" that was a hit in early '86. Actually, if an mp3 of this is available, can someone please org note me? Thanks!
