That's a picture of my Respect The Beat - Cassette. I dug it out from my forgotten piles of cassette stored in my parnets' house in my home town. This sure bring back lots of good memory. I am proud of Aishah, the lead singer from this group who made it big in New Zealand.
Aishah and The Fan Club, better known as The Fan Club or just Fan Club, were a New Zealand-based singing group in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The group released their first album Sensation in 1988, which spawned three number 1 singles in the New Zealand and Malaysian charts, namely Sensation, Paradise and Call Me.
Respect the Beat was released in 1990 with a free poster (sponsored by Pepsi). My favourite song from the album is "Color Me Blue" (sounds a little like Tell it To My Heart - Taylor Dayne).
The Fan Club was set to make it big USA with Respect the Beat album but the band's only single to make the US Billboard Hot 100 Charts was "Don't Let Me Fall Alone". The remixes for this song were among the most played dance tunes in clubs at the time.
Acknowledgment: Thanks to Judd's Lair....I am able to hear Aishah and The Fan Club again.
Wei Bradder, do you like Aishah's Malaysian's joint???
I remember when I was in NZ there were lots of Fan Club albums on sale at the 2nd hand shop!! I dont know - thought i mention it to built up the thrill of going there
Welcome to my music vault. Here you will find my favourite songs from the yesteryears. My intention of putting up this blog is to pay tributes to the entertainers who were there for me - especially during my ups and downs, throughout my carrot-cut-jeans-wearing high school years and those tea-dancing college years. Heheh! Seems like just yesterday....
I have a collection of 80’s & 90’s music on original CDs - little gems that I dug out from the bottom of the bargain bins. Hours spent from rummaging through the used CDs in 2nd hand shops and SPCA jumble sale are sometime worth it.
Some CDs were purchased during my trip to Japan a few years back. You will be amazed at the "retro" stuff that you can find in Japan! Of course having friends with the same music taste for swapping helps to add increase my collection.
I can safely say that none of the track posted here are available in Malaysia now. You can't buy them anymore! So, this will not affect albums sale. (OK..They were probably not released in Malaysia at the first place. LOL). Mostly are extended versions and remixed stuff.
My own thoughts and comments about the songs are written in the comment tab to keep the blog uncluttered. Please leave yours too.
I hope you enjoy this blog. Please drop bouquets and brickbats to runwitme@gmail.com
Please share with me if you have the REMIX or EXTENDED non-album versions of following songs (preferably in high quality). Thank You!
01. (You're My One And Only) True Love - Seduction 02. Could This Be Love – Seduction 03. Two To Make It Right - Seduction 04. High Time – Nia Peeple 05. Gotta Tell You (Milk & Sugar Club Mix) - Samantha Mumba (7:56) 06. Sandy Lam remixes.
