The Fixx Reach the Beach LP (Blue Vinyl) LIMITED OUT OF PRINT AUDIOPHILE LP

Limited Edition Blue Vinyl LP!

Mastered by Joe Reagoso from the MCA Records Tapes!

The Fixx's second studio album, Reach the Beach, was released on May 15, 1983 on MCA Records. It reached #8 on the Billboard albums chart, making it the bestselling album of the band's career. The hit single "One Thing Leads to Another" reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. George Underwood designed the cover artwork for this iconic album.

Reach the Beach is a significant step forward from the Fixx's debut album, Shuttered Room, simply because the band can now craft immediately accessible, incessantly catchy pop/rock melodies....[A] pleasant collection of immaculately produced and stylishly danceable new wave.

DAN HARTMAN INSTANT REPLAY AUDIOHILE Limited Anniversary Edition 180-gram translucent red vinyl IS NOW OUT OF PRINT AND BECOMING A REAL COLLECTORS FIND

In 1978, mega artist Dan Hartman ("Free Ride," "I Can Dream About You," "Living In America") was sitting on top of the world. After a long tenure performing with superstars such as Muddy Waters, Johnny Winter and The Edgar Winter Group, Dan rewarded his fans once again with one of the most important club and pop songs of the era with Instant Replay.

Featuring the classic line-up of Dan Hartman, Vinnie Vincent (Kiss), G.E. Smith (Bob Dylan) and former bandmate Edgar Winter, the Instant Replay album rapidly became one of the most definitive albums of his very successful career. The LP kicks off with the No. 1 title track "Instant Replay" and simmers on with the lengthy dance smash "Countdown/This Is It." His rock and funk side continues with even more classics like "Double-O-Love" and the brilliant "Time And Space,"making this one of most popular albums of the time and continues to be heard on radio and in dance halls all over the world.

Friday Music is no stranger to the stunning recordings of Dan Hartman and his affiliations with our other artists Johnny Winter and The Edgar Winter Group. Mastered impeccably by Joe Reagoso (Johnny Winter/Isley Brothers/ Instant Funk) at Friday Music Studios and pressed at RTI, this stunning LP was long overdue for the audiophile vinyl domain. Dan Hartman would go on later to become one of the top recording artists, composers and record producers of our time. Collaborating with such diverse artists as Joe Cocker, Stevie Winwood and James Brown, his career ended with his untimely passing in 1994.

	SIDE ONE
	1. Instant Replay
	2. Countdown/This Is It
	SIDE TWO
	1. Double-O-Love
	2. Chocolate Box
	3. Love Is A Natural
	4. Time & Space

The trick to topping or maintaining a debut album featuring a sound unlike the danceable New Romantic/Second British Invasion sound of Duran Duran or Spandau Ballet is a hard and rocky ground, especially with a single like "Life In A Northern Town." Well, the Dream Academy's second term, titled Remembrance Days, has them maintaining that same sound, Nick Laird-Clowes's gentle vocals and guitars as well as co-producing work, Kate St. John's oboe and cor anglais, and Gilbert Gabriel's keyboards.

The reflection of a summer spent at a rented house on the shore that one really enjoyed staying at drives the dreamy "Indian Summer" which gets backing vocal support from J.D. Souther and Lindsey Buckingham, the latter who co-produced this song. There's a basso Indian-sounded chant mid-song, lending to the atmosphere.

"The Lessons Of Love" benefits from a lilting guitar and an overall gentle feel and backing choir. When Laird-Clowes sings against leaving the city of love and moving to the valley of reason, I see a true romantic at work there who believes anybody, rich or poor, even a self-made liar, can learn the lesson. This song was produced by Patrick Leonard.

"Humdrum" is another portrait of the industrial city, of the workers whose labours benefit the higher-ups, who live in a world of deadlines and are wound up so tight in this dog-eat-dog situation.

The soft percussion and the haunting aura of "Power To Believe" reminds me of Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight" telling the story of a privilege-born man who turns his back on that to find a deeper truth, and the hard trials he undergoes. At the end he says "Keep me warm and dry/where other men are worrying/and other men must die/and when the lies are spoken/give endurance to the weak/and when the heart of man is broken/give the power to believe."

"Hampstead Girl" is a song of personal woes in the lonely city, and how one yearns to do whatever to cheer her up, but the timing's never right, so she remains with the blue in her eyes that look at the grey of the town. A leisurely mid-paced sound, with St. John's vocalizing reminiscent of Christine McVie.

The title of the album is taken from a lyric in the refreshing "In The Hands Of Love." The most upbeat song, a modern look back at the days of flower power and the Summer of Love, extols people: "Now that the war is over, put your hands in the hands of love." The second best song here.

"Ballad in 4/4" has a man wanting to hold onto everything despite living a life of lies, having an affair with a married woman and falling in love with a single girl but not dumping the other woman. His deeming take-home pay as the false security as opposed to the love that really makes him rich belies a more romantic nature concealed.

The folly of indecision is explored in "Doubleminded" which has a lush strings-synth section. Then the quiet minimalist guitar and oboe ditty about opening up to love because "Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime." This was produced by Lindsey Buckingham and Richard Dashut as well as Laird-Clowes and Hugh Padgham.

The last song, "In Exile," is a harrowing sobering narrative, with music to match, of people exiled from countries like Argentina and Chile, recalling images of national strikes, civil unrest, soldiers firing at students, and people ending up as los desaparecidos. The tempo briefly ratchets a notch as Laird-Clowes narrates the events taking place before yielding to an angelic choir. The ending has a hopeful note, "someday we'll return there... someday we'll be free there in the land where we were born." The best song on the album.

A worthy second debut, with the same mix of reflective songs, the woeful tales of the forbidding urban jungle. And the change of producers, to Hugh Padgham of the Police and Phil Collins fame didn't hurt either. An underrated effort that should've done better.
