FARRENHEIT

FIERCE HEART
- Lost Inside Your Love - Demo - 1986 - USA
Another demo that never saw the light of day
on a proper release from a band that really should have gone on to bigger and better things after
a very special debut album. Rex Carroll of course went on to the christian white
metal circuit leading god inspired Ratt clones White Cross.

GRAND SLAM - Aint No Turning Back - Demo - Aust - 1987
Ex Juna Roxas drummer Steve Moffitt
from the days when he was a front man/singer. This dusted off old demo track actually stands up as a
the Farrenheit "Goofy Boy" styled aor rocker.

MARTEE LE BOW - Love Ain't Written In Stone - Demo - USA - 1993
One of the
most under rated female rockers especially after the release of her
debut ep which in my books is an absolute gem. I hear these days Martee is involved in
country music.

MONKEY SEE - I Can Take The Truth - Demo - Scotland - 1992
Wimpwire.com faves Zero Zero - featuring the mega vocals of Stevie Doucherty - went on
to re-invent themselves as Monkey See and here's another monster track for a band that seems to
have created quite a stir of recent times with demos blowing people away. Maybe one of the melodic labels should consider a release proper of these
high class demos.

SEVEN - Amercia - BBC Session Live -
Great UK band that probably didn't the get the respect that they deserved - maybe lost
in the shuffle? Recommended.

KISS OF THE GYPSY - Promised Land - Acoustic - 30-08-1991 Radio Clyde Scotland
Formerly known as Fantasia this Brit band signed to Atlantic in 92 without much fuss and disappeared
just as quickly after after a few tour supports. A real shame as their debut album is quite a corker and this live acoustic track
from a Tom Russell radio show proves they were indeed quite mighty! |

CRY OF LOVE - Take My Sins Away - Acoustic- 21-9-1993 Radio One UK
