Eight Seconds "Big Houses"

Postby Glen » Wed Jul 28, 2004 2:32 am

I bought the Rupert Hine-produced band Eight Second's album "Almacantar" in 1986 and really liked it. Definitely influenced by the Fixx and other new wave artists of the time. The singles "Kiss You (When It's Dangerous)" and "Where's Bula" are both excellent. From what I've read, they had a second work that is next to impossible to find, "Big Houses." Anyone have this?

It appears on Ebay occasionally and it goes for big bucks. Try GEMM. One seller has it listed for $50.
