Tim and I were listening to a mix cd last night that he made in 2009. It has this song from Jason Falkner's band The Grays; from the album Ro Bo Sham. Falkner is a noted Kinkophile who was in the lauded power pop band Jellyfish! My 10 year anniversary on the forum is coming up and my brother joined here well over 12 years ago. I am going to try to convince some of the old gang, such as moderator Holly Hughes, uncleson, Sleepwalker, Smiley, and Kinkcan to come back on here.

Every time I listen to Jason Falkner, I wish Jellyfish would get back together.

Not sure how I missed the work of John Gray since I dig Power Pop, but totally did. Thank you for sharing. I’m going to check out his work.

That's alright mellie! You got it right now! Hey Todd boogieman, great to see you came back here. I am trying to get some of the old posters who are on FB to come back here. By the way, I posted that Personal Column video on the prior page that you liked so much! Colin Brown is posting on this forum!

Thanks for posting our "Strictly Confidential" video on here John, wow that is so long ago. Love The Grays video, anything connected to Jellyfish is ok by me. A while ago I managed to track down an album by Imperial Drag which is an offshoot of Jellyfish and is excellent.
This is a video of a single by Personal Column's singer, co-written by him and me, Elektra spend $500,000 on his album in 1984 but refused to pay pluggers $10,000 when they guaranteed to get it onto the top 30, and there went my chance of fortune and fame, haha.

A nice recent duet between 50s/60s UK rock star Marty Wilde & his daughter Kim who was UK's biggest charting UK female artist of the 80s!

Oh my. I'd never heard this track before getting the comp Blonde and Beyond. It was on the last album of their original run, 'The Hunter'. The band was in deep turmoil so it's incredible to me that they pulled off such a wonderful song; probably in my Top 5 Blondie songs.
