The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Long before Kylie Minogue hit American charts with such songs as “Can’t Get You Outta My Head”, she recorded this little single at the age of 21, and well… I thought she was like 14 on the cover. Anyway. The A Side is the track “Wouldn’t Change A... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I like Traci Lords as an actress, I’m sure she’s a very nice person too. But that album cover… why is she surrounded by anal beads? So, the album opens with the “Perfecto Mix” and it starts off alright, nothing overly bassy or techno sounding, but hey,... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “FORLORN LISTS TRUE CONTEMPT DESTRUCT DRIPPING RED IS IT TIME TO COME CLEAN WASH AWAY EVERYTHING HOLD THE FRAME STILL LIFE FOCUS ONES INTENT TO NOT BE NOTICED LOST IN LIES GRACEFUL CHARMS LOSING TOUCH WITH EVERYONE MANAGEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS WAITING FOR OWN IN ADDITION CONTRACT IS RAISED THE...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: This is the one Adam Ant song that got me into loving Adam Ant as much as I do, though I really don’t have as much Adam Ant in my collection as I’d like to – I do have every album digitally. So, the A-Side opens with... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Elizabeth Daily to me will always be known for her songs “I’m Hot Tonight” and “Shake It Up” – and like, they’re great. So, the A-Side is the extended mix, so I’m gonna listen. So, it goes in with that cheesy 80’s tambourines, then some piano and... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “RSPCA THIS RECORD HAS BEEN RELEASED WITH THE FULL SUPPORT AD APPRECIATION OF THE RSPCA. A PET IS FOR LIFE AND NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS GARY NUMAN GARY NUMAN WILL DONATE HIS ROYALTY FOR EVERY COPY OF THIS RECORD TO THE RSPCA” Personal Review: I got this LP for two... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, this is one of those early 80’s rap songs that was politically fueled, and who else can help fuel that fire? Britain’s finest firestarter of course, John Lydon (Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols) of course! Anyways, so the A-Side is the radio version of the... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “I smell a hit!” Personal Review: Well, the song opens with a whole lot of dogs barking – and it’s definitely some Southern Rock here, it’s not that bad either. The lyrics aren’t the best, considering Norman is literally just singing “bow wow wow wow” – the musicianship however, is... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “SPECIAL THANKS TO: God and my mom and dad G. Louis. The Louis families and to those of you who co-operated in this realization. Love to my friends and to all of you everywhere.” Personal Review: So, the A-Side opens with the title track “A Love Affair” – it’s pretty... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So basically, everyone knows this song from two places, the first and most primary being the soundtrack to the 1983 film, “Scarface” – the second, where I first (and most people my age) heard the song was the video game Grand Theft Auto III, which featured almost...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, let’s start this review. The “Original Mix” starts off this LP (Er, 12″ Single!). Oh yay. The same words repeated over and over… and over. Generic techno beat. Yes, it’s 1994. Going to be honest, I like Traci Lords as an actor, she’s done a couple... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Let me start by saying I am not going to listen to NINE different remixes of Paris Hilton’s “Nothing in This World” – especially NINE dance remixes. Not my thing. I will however, give you an overall review of the song. I’m gonna go with the “Nothing... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I like rap music, not a lot of the new rap music, but I do like rap, mainly old school 90’s stuff. This rap, however, goes past that, way past that, back all the way to 1981. This is Wayne Garland & Charlie Chocks hit, “Check it... Read More »
