Share: An 80s Vinyl Compilation

Postby retromusic » Mon Feb 13, 2017 2:02 pm

Hi - Here's a compilation of various 80s vinyl tracks. None of these tracks have been released on cd.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gl6vurc0fhaegw8/AAC36CgxQk_bgzyeX9Dfx2POa?dl=0
I've recorded them as WAV and this will fit nicely on to an 80 minute cd-r.

[1983] Ice The Falling Rain - Lifes Illusion [FS 7 ; 7" a-side]
[1986] Boom Boom Room - Here Comes The Man (12" Mix) [EPIC 650054 6 ; 12" a-side]
[1980] Berlin Blondes - Secret Days [EMC 3346 ; lp track]
[1982] President President - All Good Men (12") [12 MAG 219 ; 12" a-side]
[1980] 00.3 Minutes - Automatic Kids [XPRES 40 ; 7" a-side]
[1983] Search Party - Lost Paradise (12") [12 SP 1 ; 12" b-side]
[1980] The Books - Metaphysic [VOLUME-1 ; lp track]
[1986] Secession - Michael (12") [SIREN 23-12 ; 12" a-side]
[1981] Those French Girls - Close Up [SAFE 40 ; 7" a-side]
[1981] The Quarks - Mechanical (Extended Dance Version) [12 MAG 212 ; 12" a-side]
[1981] The News - Audio Video [GEORGE 1 ; 7" a-side]
[1984] Immaculate Fools - Tumbling Down [AMX 214 ; 12" b-side]
[1986] The Fountainhead - Sometimes [WOL 3 ; lp track]
[1986] Light A Big Fire - Lovers [SIREN 28-12 ; 12" b-side]

Enjoy,
Jon

Lots of thanks, Jon! That's the kind of posts I love :D Great that you include some "minimal synth" gems like Basking Sharks (one of my faves of the genre!) and Ice the Falling Rain. Music for Pleasure are also great. And The News one I have (I actually have all of their singles) and love dearly :D

Do you by chance have The Quarks track on 7"? I feel the dance mix stretches a bit... And maybe you also have "Urban Foxes" by Search Party? Can't get it in a bitrate higher than 192 for quite some time now :?

Unfortunately I don't have the Quarks 7". I've possibly got Urban Foxes (I recognise the front sleeve). I'll have a look for that one. I've got the 7" and 12" versions of All Around The World with a shorter version of Lost Paradise.
I have those 3 singles from The News as well.
I have only got the Basking Sharks album, Shark Island as 128kbps.
I've got a few Music For Pleasure vinyls (The Human Factor and Fuel To The Fire on 7" and Time on 12"). I've also got Into The Rain (1982), with bonus tracks as 192kbps and Blacklands (1985), with bonus tracks including Chrome Hit Corrosion 12" as 256kbps. I can upload any of the above if you are missing them.

I do like minimal synth. Looking around, I can see Industry's 12" ep from 1980, so I guess that will be my next project. Ready For The Wave is a top track :D

Cheers,
Jon

Thank you! Look forward to listening to this.

BTW, Here Comes The Man (12') finally came out on CD on a Pop & Wave compilation, Kult Prasentiet (spelling?)

I didn't know that. Hopefully they will release the other tracks. I am missing a couple of their 12" mixes.

Really?? I thought I had all of the Pop & Wave collections. Is a recent one? Which volume?
