Some really hard to find 80's tracks

Some really hard to find 80's tracks

Postby SicilianScofflaw » Sat Feb 03, 2007 12:13 am

I am new to this board so I thought I would post some songs that I have had a really hard time finding on the web. I have a huge 80s collection, ad always thought I had alot of obscure stuff, but after ready some posts here, there are so many more songs that are more obscure than I have.

Anyways here is some of the stuff I have on LP but was never able to find on mp3:

Pale Shelter - Tears for Fears (remix vesion). There are tons of remix versions for this song on the web but there is 1 which I think was a canadian mix that I could never find. It starts with kind of a scratching sound. Can't really explain it. Listening to canadian radio in the 80s this was the version they always played but I could never find it on mp3.

Other songs include :

- Soultrader - Missing In Action
- anything from the band Re-flex aside from songs from their album The Politics Of Dancing...They had other songs like How Much Longer, Flex it (b side of politics of dancing)
- East Of The Sun, West Of The moon – Wireless
- Killer On The Rampage – Glen Johansen
- Walking A Fine Line – Glen Johansen
- Tubular Bells – Keyboards Affair

I am willing to trade for any of these songs if anyone has it.

Thanks.

Glen Johansen released most of his stuff using just his last name. I remember Killer On A Rampage, but I'm not sure if I have a copy, it may be the B-side to Walkin' A Fine Line.

I think I have the Pale Shelter version you want, but it will be buried somewhere, I'll see if I can find it. No promises though.


Walkin' a Fine Line (ext) - Johansen

Here is the Wireless track:

<a href="http://www.cyberus.ca/~cs/Wireless - East of the sun, west of the moon.mp3">Wireless - East of the sun, west of the moon</a>

The two Wireless albums (including No Static" that this track is from) were released on a 2-in-1 CD [b]The Anthem Years[/b] that is available (like so much AOR/corporate rock Canadian stuff) from <a href="http://www.newworldcds.com/">NewWorld Records</a> for about $16 (Canadian) but the sound quality is a little disappointing.
