The answer to question 1 should read "Grace Kennedy."

I have the zyx/Nightmare release of it. Side A features Footprints in the sand by Miquel Brown (7:56). The B-side featuers Take it or leave it by Grace Kennedy - 116 BPM (Ian Levine / Mel Wesson).

I have that as well !! - I got it from e-bay last year. I also have EARLENE BENTLEY "DON`T DELAY" & BARBARA PENNINGTON "DON`T STOP THE WORLD" on the same ZYX label. They must have released them all as Double A sides..

Yes, you're absolutely right. One can view them as double A-side records. It helped save money at that time. I think each of these tracks were a seperate Nightmare release in the UK.
As for the track "Outrageous," Eric Roberts could be the name of the singer you quiz us about.

All answers appear to be the right ones ;

The BOYSTOWN GANG's LEVINE produced gem was called WANTED FOR MURDER.

You are quite right - the Nightmare releases were all seperate here in the UK.

Well done guys.. you were quite correct with your answers. GRACE KENNEDY released TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT in 1986 and ERIC ROBERTS sang OUTRAGEOUS. BOYSTOWN GANG recorded WANTED FOR MURDER.
