SILIPIN NATIN...

Grabe naman Derf! Di ba nung kelan mo lang sinabi sa akin na wala kang plaka niyan? Ngayon may ilan ka na? Ok yan, itago mo lang dahil ang presyo yata ngayon niyan is $200+ na!

derf wrote:pls tell me hindi ako nag-iisa....

meron ba sa inyo na may ganitong sakit (sakit na ata ito ) - na kapag sobrang paborito mo yung LP o CD, at alam mo na rare ito eh nagtatago ka ng multiple copies....



hindi pa nakuntento, nag-order pa ng US pressing na bihirang bihira lumabas sa eBay

rare title indeed bro ryan salamat for posting a cassette this time - ang cassettes ay naging mahalagang parte rin ng aking buhay - alaala ito ng isang nakalipas ng dala dala mo ito upang mapakinggan kahit saan ka mapadpad (sasakyan o walkman) - bagay na hindi mo magawa sa plaka. there is also something relaxing kapag nagpapatugtog ako ng cassette sa deck ko - habang natatanaw kong umiikot ang reels, parang pag-ikot din ng platter sa turntable - tunay na nakakapag-relax. sana makagawa ng paraan na nakikita mo rin ang pag-ikot ng CD, kaya lang sa sobrang bilis ay baka hindi mo mapansin ang ikot.

etong album na ito ay yet to be discovered pa para sa akin (except syempre for Only you my friend and If only) - dahil ang kopya ko ng plakang ito ay sealed pa, one of these days ay bubuksan ko ito at papakinggan (malamang mapadali dahil sa iyong posting

ang ganda ng kopya mo derf mukhang well maintained. with regards to the cassette ok din naman nasa pagiingat mo lang din yan pero vinyl pa rin talaga 'coz analog sya. ang problema lang sa cassette eh inaamag pag matagal mo di nagamit and nakakain especially pag nag malfunction yung tape deck. hehehehe! tapos na agad yung cassette mo maibalik mo man the sound is not the same anymore. ang counterpart nya naman sa vinyl eh yung gasgas, kaya dapat ingatan.

ps:

kuya ed thanks for admiring.

By the way, I'm not sure kung inalis mo lang, pero napansin ko na medyo walang plastic sleeves yung ibang very valuable LP's mo.
I'm sure marami ding available dyan, pero kung wala at gusto mo, pwede kitang ibili dito nang LP sleeves para maprotektahan mo ang mga deadly LP's mo. Dito kasi medyo maarte sila sa mga collections kaya maraming mga tindang LP sleeves.

salamat sa offer ghe - magkano LP outer sleeves jan? dito kse 7 pesos isa or 700 pesos 100pcs. ako naman, maarte sa outer sleeves - gusto ko yung sakto fit - hindi masikip hindi maluwag - walang flaps - tsaka clear transparent. meron kse hindi ganun ka-clear.

Derf nacheck ko na yung sleeves. halos di nalalayo price ah..sa rate today pumapatak na mga 720 pesos ang 100pcs nang resealable type. kung type mo, pwede muna natin try yung 25pcs para macheck mo quality. PM mo sakin ang mailing address mo.

Ghe,

etong Michael Cretu LP, mahirap ding hanapin na....alam mo ang naaalala ko sa Love me at Moonlight flowers nya, ay yung "beerhouse days" ko...

Derf,

itong LP mo ni Michael Cretu sa itaas na may lumabas na CD from Korea ( as you mentioned to me before)... sa ebay meron na nito last month pa... Baka wala na siguro... pero sa tingin ko lumubog lumitaw ito :

the world of music mourns as one of our pop culture icon passed away, he is the most influential, the most electrifying & perhaps the best performer of our generation. some say he is the elvis presley of our generation. jacko and madona are perhaps the only 2 bright spot which carried the u.s music during the 80's new wave british invasion.

as a music enthusiast we have to give respect & remember his huge contribution to the of world of music.


RIP MICHAEL"THE KING OF POP" JACKSON (1958-2009)

i am proud to own some of his best works. don't you miss jacko during his early years?


One Day in Your Life LP - 1981
which include the song one day in your life.

Farewell My Summer Love LP (1984)

a compilation of unreleased motown songs from 1973-1975 and many considered this as one of his best kept works.

Thriller (1982)
finally his best album ever, the best selling album of our generation and all time according to LIFE Magazine. the bearer of billboard song such as thriller, billy jean, the girl is mine, beat it, human nature etc. universally praised & produced by quincy jones in 1982. thriller is voted mtv's #1 best video of all time during the turn of millenium winning over ray of light by madona.

I join the whole world and the rest of my generation in mourning the loss of my idol, my icon - he taught me how to moonwalk in my teens, i grew up with his music

yesterday i finally felt what the other generations felt when they lost their idols - for years i never felt the real meaning behind Don Mclean's sentiments in his lyrics "the day the music died" - because buddy holly, john lennon, elvis presley was never my generation, Michael was. Yesterday i finally felt it's true meaning

this morning i played his early vinyls and can't help but feel sad and be teary-eyed when Michael sang "You'll remember me somehow....though you don't need me now....I will stay in your heart...."

so long Michael, my friend, my brother


his only album with his signature

I share the same sentiment guys. He will never be forgotten.
Goodbye Michael, and thanks for the music.

PURE 70's "36 Mellow Hits of the 70's" (EMI Phills.) double CD compilation

Kuya Ed, thanks a for posting this sa blogspot mo emv710.blogspot.com kaya't nadagdagan muli ang munti kong collectibles. Nang makita ko ito sa blogspot mo ay di nako nag-aksaya ng panahon, to drop by is a must sa madadaanan kong mall/record bars sa Manila tuwing luluwas ako. Gusto ko talaga kc magkaron ng copy ng Craig Ruhnke song na I'll Always Love You at yun ang nagbunsod sakin upang di mapaipot at di mapakali sa paghahanap nito lolz. Ang ending mas nagustuhan ko at mas nakarelate ako sa mga awiting nakapaloob dito tulad ng I Didn't Mean To Love You by Helen Reddy at ang pamatay para sa akin dito ay ang kay Eydie Gorme na It Takes Too Long. Meron pang isang track dito na nagtanggal ng bara sa mga ugat ng utak ko, walang iba kundi Wildfire by Michael Martin Murphy na halos di ko na maalala. Saka yun 2 instrumental eh swak na swak. I admit, i'm much more into hardrock, metal and thrash metal music at 80's baby ako pero for me 70's pa rin ang the best para sakin. Meron syang isinasaysay na wala sa music ng ibang dekada (my personal opinion). Nostalgic that is..........

Anyway, dito lang pala sa isang record bar sa Etivac lang siya nananahimik at naghihintay sakin. Unang linggo ng buwan ng Hunyo of this year ko sya napasakamay. Dang tagal na daw itong nananahimik at last na. Wala na sya display, ready na siya for pull-out sabi nung saleslady na nag-assist sakin. Napansin ko na walang naka-indicate kung kailan ito na-release? Kailan nga ba ito na-release?

Same to Kuya Wilbert and dErf! This CD makes me feel so mellow while it gets me so high wika nga ni David Castle!

P.S.

Gusto ko sana i-post yun back ng front cover kaso wag na lang he he he . Kaya sa mga wala pa nito baka meron pa sa local record bars na malapit sa inyo. I highly recommend this compilation. Mabuhay ang lahat ng members! At saka sana po magkaron ng Main-EB lahat ng members sa mga darating na taon. Yun bang lahat ng nasa overseas ay uuwi...malay natin di b?
Para mapa-autograph ko sa inyong tatlo itong CD ko d b? Wish ko na wag mawala enthusiasm ng lahat ng members!
Dang - this word is used by Caviteños w/c means ubod ng or saksakan ng
for ex: ubod ng ganda / saksakan ng ganda (sakali po kung mapasyal kayo ulit or marinig nyo d2 sa Cavite)

AUNT IRMA from an OLD TWINKLE OR USED TO BE JINGLE MAGAZINE :

Picking up from our friend who requested for some new wave gems, I'd like to post some great releases that might interest some of you who remember and for some that might want to acquire. These are music that have shaped a generation and still carry the music within. I hope you enjoy these post as much as I do sharing it with you.

ARTIST: FRIENDS AGAIN
ALBUM : TRAPPED AND UNWRAPPED (Japan release)
LABEL : Mercury Records
Original LP Release : 1984

HIT SINGLE : State Of Art



A one hit wonder across the US, Friends Again is a jangly guitar group that brought out the melody above in every song they put out. Though most of the songs were superbly written, Freinds Again fell victim to the black hole of not being too "NEW ROMANTIC" or as was it called "NEW WAVE" in the UK. For what its worth though, the group surely made waves in the local shores and Asia. This remastered, Japan release features 6 bonus tracks and extended versions that never made commercial success(except for SUNKISSED which was played on UK radio). Browse through the net and you might bump on this release with a very appealing price tag to it(but be sure to hold yourself down with the shipping cost). This is a certified DELETED release making it an endangered specie to wave collectors.

WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT IF: The extended version and remixed version of STATE OF ART were included.

ARTIST : VITAMIN Z
ALBUM : RITES OF PASSAGES
LABEL : GEFFEN RECORDS re-issued by RENAISSANCE RECORDS
Original LP release : 1985

Hit single : BURNING FLAME



The track still rings to my ear and its catchy guitar intro will certainly call your attention and throw you back in time. This obscure group became a one hit wonder in the US and the UK but because of internal disagreements, they were never able to jump back in the saddle of pop stardom. The group tried to release a second album called SHARP STONE RAIN which they included their hit single but unfortunately fell into silent void. Through the years some tried to re-issue the LP but were unsuccessful. Flash forward 2009, Renaissance Records managed to pull the strings and were able to re-issue the entire LP on CD with bonus cuts.

FACTOID: RITES OF PASSAGES made it to CD on a limited basis back in 85' BUT never made it across Asia. You might come across ebay and find a PROMOTIONAL CD for sale without the paper parts which is priced wildly beyond your imagination.

WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT IF : Maybe its just me but my ears tell me that the album cuts were lifted from an LP master or reel master which the re-mastering engineer did not thoroughly enhance the audio. Bonus cuts include all the remixes of their hit single. All in all I'd rate this release 10/10 because these sort of re-issues will never happen again.

ARTIST : GENERAL PUBLIC
ALBUM : ALL THE RAGE
LABEL : I.R.S. RECORDS
Original LP release : 1984

Hit Single : TENDERNESS followed by NEVER YOU DONE THAT



Pop Wave never sounded better when General Public starts playing on radio. With its catchy hand claps and backing vocals, you can easily hear their pop sense jived with the jumpy beat of Brit music. General Public was the other half of of ENGLISH BEAT (the other half being FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS) that decided to part ways due to musical differences. The group released a couple of LPs in the US and UK that made ripples(HAND TO MOUTH) of which local wave aficionados rather prefer but for some who really are just for the beat and good music, ALL THE RAGE is the album for you.

FACTOID : This is a deleted 1984 CD released by IRS Records in the US. You can still find this CD re-issued back in 1990 by A&M

WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT IF : The re-issued versions included the extended versions of the singles as well as the live versions from previous LP recordings.
