Richard James Burgess Solo Releases

Postby Gyroscope2 » Fri Dec 02, 2005 1:05 am

Does anyone have any of Richard Burgess' solo releases from 1984 including "The Fugitive" and "Breathless". These singles were released under his full name "Richard James Burgess". Thanks in advance!

Here's all six songs I have of his. 'Swim To Me' and 'Breathless' are the best ones here.

Thanks from me too on this; the extended versions of some of these songs were mixed by John Luongo, the founder of the “Boston Record Pool” that I belonged to many years ago. One, if not, the very first record pools in the States; it’s been debated who was actually first, by maybe only a few hours difference. Thanks, I enjoy trying to collect a lot of this stuff from the very early members of that record pool, even though when these were made he had long since turned over control of the record pool to Arnie Ward.

Would you know if there are any credits to John Luongo on that mini album for any of the versions on it.

Thanks for posting this and the original request.

This site can be so awesome at times!! Who'd ever thunk to see a thread concerning Richard James Burgess? What I loved about this was the mentioning of John Luongo. He's a hero of mine. Loved his work for EBN/OZN and Dubset and Yoko Ono. Too cool!!

Question concerning Mr. Burgess: Wasn't he the one who did the 12-inch extension of Kiss' "I Was Made For Loving You"? I know this song isn't new wave (more like disco) but I've always lamented that this version has never wound up on CD.

Again, excellent topic!
