The Bernhardts - I Hear You Calling 7" (1984)

This dude reminds me of Mario Lopez of the sitcom Saved By The Bell. Anwyay, I don't have any information about the band. I highly recommend this single. If you have any information about them, feel free to post a comment.

Fat And Frantic - I Don't Want To Say Goodbye 12" (1990)

This band was introduced to me by my friend Jonas D. One of the songs in the mix tapes he gave me years back. Fat and Frantic were a humorous Christian music group who played a self-styled mixture of Gospel Music and Skiffle which they described as "Goffle". According to the write up their best song was "Last Night My Wife Hoovered My Head". I personally think " I Don't Want To Say Goodbye is much better single.

Counterfeit - Good Samaritan 12" (1989)

A British synth pop trio releasing The Good Samaritan / Four Years on Creation Records in 1989. I put this up on youtube august last year and the lead vocals Lee McFadden posted his first comment... "I provided keyboards and guitar as well as vocals - also - who put this up - it's embarrassing!" I got some information about the rest of the members after he posted a second comment..."
Glen is in Blue October (UK) - another electronic pop band - well recommended. I'm in various groups - Alternative TV, The Long Decline, Angel Racing Food, Head & Shoulders, Demi-Monde, and help out with TV Personalities (the band) from time to time. Heath is not currently musically involved - but has recently become a proud dad." Anyway, I don't care what he thinks about his band, I still love this song. If you like Depeche Mode and other Synthpop bands like Celebrate The Nun, Elegant Machinery, Cetu Javu, this is for you.

Mecano - Those Revolutionary Days 5" (2007)

Mecano is best described as new wave, with remarkable arrangements, colored with unusual guitar harmonies. This is not the same Synth-pop band from Spain. This is their new album after 22 years. I'm posting 2 of the songs from this album.. Atheist Chant and Untitled. If you like their songs please support the band and buy their cd.

New Wand band from U.K.,formed in 1985. “Here Comes The Man” was their first single released on the independent “Fun After All” label.
