Believe it or not, we actually had a fairly large thread about this:

http://www.nwoutpost.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=8168

Recently departed board great eight6 ripped it for us. Since there is virtually no chance of this ever being back in print, I'll post a link to the full album. Mods, feel free to moderate if need be.

I think Apollo, that the best tracks prob appeared on his Greatest Hits CD anyway.

it's funny...3 tracks off this (WASP) are on his Greatest Hits, stuff that never charted and is really in no way like anything he's remembered by...oh well....

I think, Shaun that, WASP was too late in the game...besides, the album seemed to be different just to BE different (for him), and with all the Covers anyway on it, it wasn't like it was a very personally creative project, just re-marketing the singer.

He seems to have taken a very indifferent approach nowadays to his pop music career; not like big brother David, who stopped biting the hands

Hi Apollo; if it's OK with you (and the rest of the forum)...how about starting a BUBBLEGUM music post?
Those that don't care don't have to be involved; just think it would be an easier way to corral all requests and posts for this kind of music...

you know,i didnt say anything before but since you asked...

i dont know what happened we have a good thing going here, cool people posting cool stuff and then for some reason people came along and we started getting weird topics like "underground early synthesizer polka bands from the 70's" and very strange non related postings of stuff that was way out there.
I loved the way this board was going because if you are not a casual 80's fan you are going have most all the 80's songs that have been requested here, and to this day people are still trading things they can buy but dont want to spend the money... and how many times can people come along and ask for MCL or Fiction Factory or early Minstry etc? It's the same stuff over and over, and i dont think we were doing anything wrong.. but i think it got abused to weird posts that had absolutely nothing to do with 80's music or what i believe is its off shoots house and dance music.. so i am all for it...but i dont know if someone is going to get jacked out shaped for seeing a "luther vandross" topic or a "sheena easton" one for that matter.

And one more thing..

also dance music or 12" are rare forms of music, most of the stuff on this format have never made it to cd.. there are so many great 12" singles out there that are lost on vinyl and if i could go buy the cds i would..

I said my peace

So i would love to see other things posted within reason.. but i dont know why if you dont like it. just dont open the post... no one is probably going to see my rantings and ravings under this Shaun Cassidy thread but hey..i said my peace.
