Albums I can upload if anyone would like.

I have a few full albums I can upload and post if anyone is interested.

Rocky Burnette- Son of Rock and Roll (1981) Features 'Tired of Toein' the Line'. A decent rockabilly album with a few keyboards thrown in.

The Shoes- Silhoettes (1984)- Everyone knows The Shoes, but this album kind of fell through the cracks. The Shoes abandoned their power pop sound and added a ton of keyboards on this one. It was rereleased in 1991, but is now out of print.

Peter Wolf- Lights Out (1984)- I actually like this album as much as I like any J. Geils album.

Robin Gibb- How Old Are You (1983)- Yes, it's THAT Robin Gibb, but a few of these songs have a new wavish feel to them. The title track is actually real good. So is the song "Juliet'.

The A's- self-titled and/or Woman's Got The Power. Philadelphia-based power pop band from the early eighties. Both albums are great.



I didn't bother uploading any of these yet, since I have pretty wierd taste in music. I figured that there's a possibilty that no one else would want any of these (or they already had any they might want).

Anyway, let me know if there's any interest in any of them. I'll gladly upload them and post a link.

SITE, I'd be interested in the Peter Wolf, if in fact it is OOP. Was part of my now-in-pieces vinyl collection. It is down my list, I haven't even tried looking for it yet.

Cool, thanks, SITE. I have to admit, this is another one I just assumed I would be able to find easily when I went looking for it. How did this go OOP? [:0]

No clue how they decide that stuff. 70% of the songs on Lights Out are excellent.

Thanks for the Peter Wolf! I have the Shoes CD -- it's a great one -- and has "will you spin for me?" on it, which is a great, great track.

Apparently I can only use the adjective "great" today. Time for more caffeine.

You're welcome. I agree. "Will You Spin For Me" is awesome (didn't want to use 'great' LOL) I also really like the track, "Dormant Love".

OK, I'll request The Shoes. Love "Will You Spin For Me" and would like to hear the rest of the album.

Never knew that Robin Gibb released an album with that on as all I could find was the single. Great video which was based on St. Trinians and the song should of been a hit. If you wouldn't mind SITE I wouldn't mind hearing the rest of the album.

Sure Frank No problem.
You have to sift through a little garbage on this one, but there are a few gems here. The track 'How Old Are You' is great.

Enjoy. (these are all very good) You can tell they were produced by Rick Chertoff, who also worked with Robert Hazzard and The Hooters.

Hello

I hope it's not bad ettiquete to request something on my first post, but if the offer is still open, I would very much like to hear the Rocky Burnette album please. I'm becoming a bit of a neo-50's rockabilly fan!

Thanks very much
