Poll: Your favorite 2 Costandinos albums and why

[DJ Jimmy M]

Well thank you all for the imput on this poll. I see there are some I agree and some I disagree. Alec should get all his LP's out on CD. BEWARE THE CD'S THAT LOOK VERY REAL THAT SAY "MADE IN RUSSIA". They are on Ebay alot. The people that sell them say they are great masters with no vinyl noise and in reality they are the biggest pieces of shit you'd ever get your hands on. The CD artwork and layouts are nice as hell and are very real. But...when you play it..OHHHHHH SHIT!!!! I recently got suckered into one of theese and I am sending back in the mail tomorrow to get a refund(and the seller agreed to.. 33.00 for this piece of shit? NO WAY). You can hear surface scratches from the record and they are late in cueing up the tracks. It clocks 3 sec. into the track before the sound kicks in and when it does they almost fade the song in and the level goes from silent to suddenly pumped up to normal level. I could make my own Costandinos CD's and remaster them using my EQ and compleatly edit out all the vinyl sounds and fade out with the tracks etc..(I've done it on tape and it sounds great and very scary...but like a CD). Make your own before you waste your cash on these jokes. Anyway, here is the compleate discography of Alec for those who are trying to get it all(I still am, and I only have a few left to track down):

Love In C Minor

Love And Kisses

Sphinx

Romeo And Juliet

Sumeria - Golden Tears

Thank God It's Friday SNDTRK(2 tracks of Alec)

Love And Kisses - How Much I Love You

Hunchback Of Notre Dame

Trocadero Bleu Citron

Paris Connection

Tina Turner - Love Explosion(is on CD IMPORT)

Bad News Travels Fast - Look Out

Winds Of Change

Bad News Travels Fast - Ordinary Man

Love And Kisses - You Must Be Love

Tony Rallo And The Midnite Band - Burning Alive

Ariol And Jaquette

Americana



That's it except for in 1984 he produced a track for Albator 84. A french group with a theme song to a cartoon in france(sung in French, I have it from a friend who burnt it onto a CD for me)



I also heard he had something to do with the Konga's LP "Anikana-o", don't know for sure because I don't own it. Just know the song itself. Also, he played keybords on the Love Deluxe LP "Here Comes That Sound". I was told that but he is not on the credits except a special thanks credit. I took another listen and on side 2 his signature sound is all over it to an extent so, maybe so.

I have to say Romeo and Juliett. Brings back a lot of good memories from the late 70's early 80's club days....
