    I was Strong... (my moment)

    Miquel Brown has always been one of my favourite HINRG divas ...
    One particular track she released in 1990 was "I WAS STRONG.. (MY MOMENT). It did not seem to do very well over here in the UK (Probably cos most of the clubs were abandoning hi-nrg for House music).
    Was this track a hit anywhere ??

    To the best of my knowledge it wasn't a big hit here either. Never heard it anywhere, but found and bought the 12" record. I think the version on the flip side was better than the mix on side 1 if I recall correctly. One of her BEST tunes IMO. This track would have been huge if it had been released in the early eighties.

    As a huge MIQUEL BROWN fan ; unfortunately I never heard this song although I've read about it and heard many mention it among their favorites MIQUEL tracks.

    It was only released on the HANSA label and I managed to get hold of the limited copies available here in the UK. Its a real pity it did not get a domestic/bigger distribution and club play as its a corker of a track. Miquel has always been one of the HINRG scenes finest divas

    I wish I'd been able to get it ; I read the reviews in DMR and they loved it.

    On the other hand I managed to get a copy of EVELYN THOMAS' "High Voltage" and it is one of my favorite from her.

    I thought there were a lot of copies around as I had one on ebay for £1.50 and it never sold
