OK, lets give these bands a chance. One To One is from Ottawa. I had three of their albums. The first one FORWARD YOUR EMOTIONS was not bad for a debut from 1985 with songs like "Angel In My Pocket" and "There Was A Time". I found the second release better. It was released in 1988 with "Hold Me Now" and the remake of "Lovechild". This CD was great from start to finish, for me anyway. The third CD had the song "Peace of Mind" but it mellowed out after that.

Strange Advance are from my hometown, Vancouver, BC. I met their manager on several occasions. He signed their CD OVER 60 MINUTES WITH STRANGE ADVANCE for me. Darryl Kromm owns a recording studio near my house. The first two albums WORLDS AWAY and 2W0 were my favorites. The third release only had two good songs on it [8D]"Love Becomes Electric" and "Who Lives Next Door".

I fondly remember "We Run" getting frequent airplay on WLIR 15+ years back and then found 2W0 in a little record store in Frederick MD about 10 years ago, Great Stuff! [:)]

Forward Your Emotions never came out on CD. But, I have a strange hunch it may be out on CD in Germany because there are a number of Canadian releases that only came out on LP and cassette being reissued on CD in Germany. Platinum Blonde's "Alien Shores
