Icon - Holy Man's War

Talk about a band that should have made it big. The first two Icon albums are still "iconic" hard rock releases that showcase the sad fact that musical talent wasn't usually what dictated success in the 80s/90s music business.

Here is another band from that same scene that seemed to have all the pieces in place for being huge...

1991... there was so much wonderful music happening and money (and other things) flowing that it felt like it would never end. At least we got some now forgotten gems before grunge pulled the red carpet out from under our boots. Here is a Jeff Scott Soto led band that sadly went directly to the clearance bins.

PC69 - Pinball Wizard

I just can't fully embrace PC69 without Andi Deris. And once again, a real stunner from 1991...

Keith Urban - For You

This makes me think of one of my teenage crushes. Funny thing is I have bumped into her from time to time over the years. She is even taller in person than I expected, if that makes sense. The song "I See Boys" is a top notch one hit wonder too, Thanks Pétra. Actually, I don't remember there ever being a song during this part... young me was obviously distracted.

KMFDM - Godlike

I prefer the original song where the guitar riff sample comes from.

 

[trash80]

And while I do love Sascha and KMFDM, I think Public Enemy sampled it more effectively...

 

[trash80]

Speaking of KMFDM... have you ever walked into a room full of people and had a single individual knock you over the head with their magnetism without anything more than a glance and eye contact? This is one of those people, and it doesn't hurt that he is a legitimate artistic genius gifted with a brutal work ethic.

great bunch fellas , some really good ones . I never ever thought I`d see BMX Bandit in this lot !!! there were so many great bands in the 80s & 90s , sometimes you have to be lucky to be in the right time & place .

(shotgun messiah - i'm a gun)

that's a -killer album- trash80, no joke!! ;0 think i just found the title-track video; never seen this before...

shotgun messiah - violent new breed

p.s. the album track is a little bit extended, front and back, and adds to the simmering, smoldering effect of it all... i label this in my itunes as a 'hard-core stripper track'... ;0

 

[WhiteChocolate]

Flo singing That Old Black Magic was something.

[WhiteChocolate]

[WhiteChocolate]

Lincoln's Speech "Legends of Springsteen" (The Ben Stiller Show)

[WhiteChocolate]

something so sweet, and calming... perhaps my favorite classical piece ...

Seong-Jin Cho - Claude Debussy: Clair de lune [Suite bergamasque, L. 75]

"Claire of the Moon".... maybe no sweeter whisper of words ever spoken... nor notes of a piano... and it sneaks up on you so sweetly; you won't even guess when your tears will be sweetly tugged from your eyeballs.... ;0 then head-bang yourself on the desktop 'cuz you're sucha metalhead you won't allow yourself to be so taken in!! ;0
