TAWNY KITAEN -
Don't Touch The Heart - Demo - 1990 - USA
The then Mrs Coverdale did it all, album covers, video clips, bad television
and attempted to be a pop goddess. Guess she missed on the last one - although
this track from 1990 is very aor in a Fiona kind of way.

BALANCE - She's Alone Tonight -
Outtake - USA
Balance. One of the most under rated AOR bands to my mind. This track would end up
making it out on a Japanese b-side. |

HEART - If Looks Could Kill - Live - 31-081985 - Raleigh USA
With a raw new album just out thought it made for a good excuse to feature
some classic 80s live Heart. Anne Wilson, big girl, bigger voice! HUGE! |

ROXUS - Body Heat - Live - 26-4-1991 - Festival Hall, Melbourne Australia
Audience Recording of the Month. Australia's Roxus here supporting Warrant in Oz and
ripping things up with the classic Body Heat track that was criminally left off their gem Night Street album.

TOUR DE FORCE - You're The One - Demo - 1990 - Scotland
Not to be confused with the US band of the same name. These Scots did release some
great demo material but unfortunately again never got to any real heights!

MARCHELLO - Riot - Demo - 1990 - USA

albums/advances to not see the light of day officially...yet anway.

EUROPE - Start From The Dark - live - Sweden Rock - 12-6-2004
This show seems to be floating around the net but I thought I would feature the new Europe song from
the Sweden Rock set. Although I can't say I'm totally convinced by the de-tuned riff style in the song all up, but am most definitely still
anticipating the new Europe studio album.

AGENTZ - Time Will Tell - Demo - 1986 - USA
Pre Stick to Your Guns demo this New York band was another glammy bunch with
big tickets that didnt really amount to much other than hair band cult status.

PETE GOALBY - Chance of a Lifetime - Demo - 1990
Ex Trapeze/Uriah Heep man can do no wrong here. Despite apparently having given
up the singing biz on a pro level it's always great to hear him sing toons of this standard. |

JULLIET - Rain Cellophane - DEMO - 1991 - USA
Los Angeles band that caused a stir on the strip street papers with major advertising
