Bang Gang – Love Sells 1990

1479054177_frontDuring the 80’s and early 90’s, glam worked hard and so many combos had the chance to be signed on the majors, it is good to report or remember that there were also groups that came out of the glam albums on independent labels. This is the case, among others, The Bang Gang who released his debut album “Love sells” at Sinclair Records. As a side remark, note that The Bang Gang had in its ranks former members of Culprit 2 (heavy metal band of cult 80’s): bassist Scott Earl and guitarist KJ Kristoffersen.

That said, The Bang Gang has nothing to do with Culprit musically because here, as was stated earlier, one deals with the hard / glam. And the title “Pedal to the Metal”, loaded to open hostilities, should not mislead: the festive atmosphere, the melodies of both light and punchy ri

s Australia’s number one sleaze band and are rapidly gaining a large following in the international glam/sleaze scene. Likened to early Guns N’ Roses with a healthy dose of Motörhead, the Snakes are determined to bring the style and attitude of the eighties sunset strip scene, kicking and screaming into the present. In July 2015, they released their debut digital split single, “Lost Saints/Cruel and Indiscreet” which is enjoying widespread radio play in the United States and th

Inspired by bands like Tower Of Power and Earth, Wind & Fire, The Rhythm Of Life claims its identity in the funk-and-soul universe with inventive arrangements, clever rhythms, and a timeless quality that transcends the notion of what music from Hawaii should sound like.

Wendy Waldman ?– Which Way To Main Street 1982

r-3642638-1376262687-2410-jpeg
Of immediate interest is the track ‘Heartbeat’ which kicks things off. This version precedes the one that Don Johnson released in 1986 which became a break-out hit for him. Wendy’s version is fairly raw and boisterous, unlike the smooth AOR of Johnson’s. ‘Fighting It Out In The Heart Of The City’ is as tough as the song-title suggests.
‘We’ll See In The End’ has some energetic moments in the second half of the song, while ‘X-Ray Eyes’ is the quirkiest tune on offer. Tapp
