I am looking for information on a CD released in Japan by that superb band FM. I believe it was a compilation of sorts, made up of unreleased or B-sides? Does anyone out there in melodicrockland know anything about this?

The stuff I heard was really good,but the sound qulaity wasn't up to much. So I'd definately be interested in this if it gets the profesional makeover. Certainly these songs are too good to remain hidden.

How about 'Let Love Be The Leader' as a bonus - as I think that was a vinyl only release.

Here's hoping

Some of the tracks became B-sides to the 'Tough it out' Album but most remain unreleased.

My hope is that one day, a label will pick these up for release. As I'm sure people would like to hear them.

While I know Paraphenalia contained live cuts I wasn't aware of any Studio tracks form this period. I'd like to see a track list if someone has one.

There was also a really good radio broadcast of FM on the Tough it Out tour, which did the rounds.

Any details of Paraphanelia? This is more like the stuff I am after, ie the earlier recordings.
I have most of the singles on vinyl with rare/unreleased B- sides, but would love them on CD.
If anyone can help me out, perhaps with a trade please email me
swebb@callnetuk.com

CLOSER TO HEAVE (Brunette, 1993)
1 closer to heave (single mix)
2 burning my heart down (93 remix)
3 don't stop (93 remix)
4 heard it through the grapevine (live)
5 frozen heart (93 remix)
6 all or nothing (12" mix)
7 little bit of love
8 primitive touch
9 flesh and blood
10 need your love so bad (acoustic)
11 rocky mountain way (acoustic)
12 only the strong survive (acoustic)
13 closer to heaven (acoustic)

The 93 remixes are actually rerecordings done of the early material done with the Aphrodisiac-type sound (heavy guitars, less keys).

I forgot, there is another CD with similar type stuff that was the double CD to their PARAPHANALIA CD that has more of the early material.
