Resistance "She Went Walkin'/Bombs For Peace" 45 1986









Resistance "She Went Walkin'/Bombs For Peace" 45 1986

Second posting for day 1 of my blog leads us to a band by the name of Resistance. This was their one and only release from the year 1986. It was released on Taboo records out of Los Angeles, CA. "She Went Walkin'" to me sounds like a mimicked Rhyme & Reason-era Missing Persons song. "Bombs For Peace" while similar is a toned down duet track. The band is comprised of Charity James on lead vocals, Ted Steward on guitar/keyboards, Dominic Bakewell on guitar/keyboards, Mary Ann Heimann on bass, and finally Ralph Hale our man on drums. I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on this record. Enjoy!

Beyond Words "In My Dreams/Anything Real" 45 1984










Beyond Words "In My Dreams/Anything Real" 45 1984

Beyond Words are from Maryland, and to the best of my knowledge only released this one 45 in 1984. It was released on Speechless records. It's your typical sound for a record released during this time. The lineup consists of Lisa Matthews on lead vocals, Mike Gehl on guitar, George Kondylas on drums/vocals, Doug Scrivener on sax, synth/vocals, and Mark Evanko on bass/vocals. The band shows characteristics of a cross between Pylon and Rubber Rodeo with a side of Romeo Void. Anyway, you all decide and let me know what you think of this record. I personally favor "Anything Real" over "In My Dreams."
