The All Sports Band had 2 hits appear on the Billboard Charts:
- I'm Your Superman (1981)
- Opposites do Attract (1982)

I have 'em both on mp3 [:)]

Thank you very, very much!!! I had forgotten about "Opposites Do Attract" until somebody from the '80s days in Manila brought it up. What a great song!

John, kumusta? Welcome aboard. I share your radio history. I was a hardcore 99.5 RT listener before my full conversion to XB-102. Do you remember Rosie Vela's "Magic Smile" from the RT days? I actually have a number of your mp3s like Private Lives and the Lover Speaks. E-mail me at XB_102FM@yahoo.com. Rubbeet, another member here, is also from the Philippines. We got into New Wave in a big way.

I don't have that Primitives track, though. I had already left the Philippines by then so I missed the glory days of BM and NU. I caught the first few weeks of NU and BM broadcasting New Wave and then I was off to the U.S. XB is coming back as an online radio station with some of the original DJs, by the way.
