    Imagine this.....

    If you wre given the opportunity to produce your own HI-NRG record for release on CD/Vinyl - and you had to choose two vocalists to record the song - who would you choose ??
    I would probably choose TRACY ACKERMAN and JACKIE RAWE. They are both well established session singers and I love their material from the 80s... Tracy did great work both as a solo artist and as the vocalist on ASTAIRE/QUANTIZE etc... Jackie Rawe brought us the superb I BELIEVE IN DREAMS and her voice is amazing. Who would you choose ?? :roll:

    Take it one step further Neil!!!!

    What would be your label name and song title? ;)


    I'd have Earlene Bentley on vocals, belting it out like a good un, with Jennifer Holliday & Sarah Dash on backing.

    I'd have Jens Lissat (Mike Mareen) producing & Vince Clark (Erasure) on synths.


    The label?

    Zorro

    The track?

    er, A Hard Man Is Good To Find ;)

    I very nearly once did this, I started writing a song, and talked with Levine about putting it out. Sadly it never happened, I'm now waiting for a Hi Nrg revival so I can finish it off. We talked about getting Evelyn Thomas to sing it, it would have been ace.

    I was gonna be called "straight acting man" . My idea was to make it a real classic with a chugging beat, hi hat symbols, air raid sirens the whole kitchen sink.
