CLIMIE FISHER GETS THE REISSUE TREATMENT:









One of my favourite bands from the 80's was Climie Fisher. Simon Climie and Rob Fisher (from Naked Eyes) released two albums that have just been reissued by Edsel Records with bonus tracks. Not clear on if they have been remastered, but still nice to have the cds back in print. You can order "Everything" here and "Coming In For The Kill" here.

VARIOUS BITS AND PIECES:



Teitur's third album "The Singer" gets a U.K. release on February 16th on A&G Records with an added bonus track "My Only Companion".

Producer/songwriter extraordinaire Simon Climie (Climie Fisher, Eric Clapton) has produced the second album "The Distance" from American Idol winner (fifth season, 2006) Taylor Hicks. You can hear the first single "What's Right Is Right" (MP3) on his MySpace site or homepage. I think there is a pic of Simon working with Taylor in the photo section of his website.

Ohh Crapp has a remix of "Empire Of The Sun's" second single "We Are The People" up on his site. The Shazam Remix is certainly one of the better remixes of the song that I've heard. The blog also has a good remix of the Sam Sparro track "Pocket", it is The Presets Radio Mix.

The new U2 single "Get On Your Boots" isn't bad, looking forward to the album due out in March.

Check out Canadian band "Honey And The Money" at their website. I saw them open for Ben Lee years ago when they were called Madison and I enjoyed the duo.
