Owen Paul (as opposed to Paul Owen), 1986 iirc. Now vastly rich (Hard Rock Cafe and Village (as in Warner Village Cinemas). Oddly enough he was the 'neighbour from hell' that the Osbournes were feuding with.

Stiltskin - Inside




Good choice!

Just died in your arms tonight - Cutting Crew
Big Area - Then Jericho (I think they were a one-hit wonder weren't they?)



Then Jericho also had a hit with 'The Motive' - Cracking tune

And also "What does it Take?" with a certain Miss Belinda Carlisle on backing vocals.

Not sure if it ever charted.

Its mainstream popularity came from the fact that it was the backing track to a bitmap brothers game called Xenon 2.

#6 for 8 weeks in 1988 - DOH!

Hang on a mo...


it did chart with MC Merlin on vocal/rap.

Sample from "Assault on Precinct 13", fact fans :geek:

Indeed, the full title is "Megablast (Hip hop on Precinct 13)"
