On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

  1. This is some of the best 80s new wave I've heard. You say you have more?

    Thanks for the great shares.

    3. Greetings from Pennsylvania. Just relocated here after 40+ years on the West Coast. Great to hear from someone in Uruguay. Glad I could dig up your request. My whole reason for doing this blog is to share music I like. If you ever want anything else, just let me know somewhere on this mess & I'll see what I can do. Listening-partner...compañero de escucha...I like that. Thanks.

  6. Is 'Imagination' officially on any particular album? Just curious.
    Do you happen to have that one?

    1. Sad Lovers And Giants fell apart at the end of 1983. In the Breeze is a collection of previously unreleased recordings spanning their lifetime. "Imagination" is an out-take from Feeding The Flame. Recorded at Spaceward, summer 1983.

      Sad Lovers & Giants - In the Breeze, Midnight Music CHIME 00 07 M, 1984.

    2. This is the only official release of “Imagination”. This is a different version than the two album versions. SLAG were not satisfied with this original take & re-worked the song.

      Sad Lovers & Giants – Clé 7“, Last Movement LM003, 1981.
