Had to do it. Give the Original Mirrors their own thread. These guys were (yes) one of my favorites-and as many times as I say that ,they really were one of my favorites. They got a decent amount of airplay up here, particularly of their first self titled LP. "Reflections" , "Panic In The Night" , "Could This Be Heaven?" and "Flying" all got quite a bit of college station play. "Darling In London" and "Dancing With the Rebels" from the 2nd LP got some , but less, airplay.

Are there any other Original Mirrors fans besides me? And..if there are , does anyone have quality sounding tracks from their 2nd lp? I have their first one complete but I am having a tough time with number 2-Heart Twango and Raw Beat.

Weird thing. After years of looking for their 2 lp's on cd ( to no avail ) although I have been able to get all of their first and a few songs from their second lp through varoius downloads , I hear twice in one week about this "Heartbeat" cd which has th

I will be in touch. Nobody seems to appreciate them!

I see one of their albums all over the place but never give it any consideration. Next time I see it I'll give it a spin or 3.
