Andy,
Where did you hear these tapes?Id love to hear them
Hi there great website!! I'm after some help in identifying a load of tracks from Robbie Leslie's White Party at Teh Saint cds for 1983/1985/1986.
Firstly has anyone managed to track list these, as that would save a lot of time! If not can you help identify a few for me from the lyrics. I have mp3'd them, just trying to work out how to upload them to my internet providers webspace as their website is a bit ambiquous!!
Ok here's the lyrics.
From 1983 White Party
Slow intro female disco tune.....
Love has only just begun, my heart is gonna make up my mind
Now there's magic in the air, that comes from all the love we share
So take me in your arms, take me i am your tonight
Take me in your arms and rock me till the morning light
From 1983 white party
Female disco track, quite a twee vocal, and a spacey sounding flute, quite trippy
Dance with x 3, come on and catch me if you can
Dance till the music's gone, we can go on forever
Dance with me till the dawn
From 1986 White PArty
Male nrg track voice similar to Martin Fry from ABC
You got a one shot, aim it out of here
You got a big shot get into gear
You got no stop look into the ground
You got a long drop 2nd time around
From 1986 White Party
Female nrg track quite fast great Moroder like synths
You're the kind of a guy, you're my alibi, i'm taking off to fly away
No matter what you try i love you my oh my
I'm taking off to fly away
Up Up in the sky is where i'm feeling free
Up Up in the sky it's you and me
From 1986 white party
Italo track male vocal, starts with phone ring and girls chatting bout blind date then male vocal sings
Chorous
My heart keeps beating, i'm sure I can't be so wrong
Your heart keeps burning why I've been waiting so long
I give you my love, all my love
From deep down inside
If anyone can help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Andy

Are you the Andy Farley who used to play at the Nightingale with Tony?
Thanks again nrgbeat
to Ladyboygrimsby yes it is the same one. I used to play at The Nightingale from 1990 till 1996.
Hi guys any more ideas on what the remaining tracks are at all? I've managed to blitz a few of them, so there's only a handful left now. Cheers :D
any chance you could geti n touch with me? I want to ask you a couple of questions (related to your career rather than the Saint). My email: bill @ djhistory.comOriginally Written by Andy Farley
Andy where is this sample: I dont see it in the list. Do you know what this is yet ?

Up Up in the sky it's you and me

Hi jbandes yea found out what it was so deleted it from the list. It's by Dusty called I'm Taking Off on Belgian Fellow Records. Great track!! :D
Thans Andy. I correspond with Robbie often, he is currently in Maine on vacation. If you send me what your still missing I will send him samples and ask him to identify them for me.
Sincerely James
Also going nuts trying to find an MP3 of the following:
"Good Morning My Love” it was written by D.C. LaRue of “Cathedrals” fame. I believe there was another partner involved. The Harlem Boys’ Choir did the backing vocals. The song was never signed and therefore there is no label behind it. The year would be about 1983 or 1984, but that’s an approximation. If you have it or know where to find a copy please let me know
Andy found another one for you.
84 Disk 10 Track 5
This is a Limited Edition Pressing the song is called Precious Lies and the Group is Five Sinners. There is a special thanks on the lable thanking Emil DiPrizito and Chuck Ryan and Michael Jorba, DJ and Michael Cavallone, DJ
M Records 496A Hudson Street Suite K5 NY, NY 10014
Post production Mark Melnick and Gregory Brown for Palsy Walsy Productions. I beleive the above info was from a bootleg version and the BASS was a bit light, on the bootleg repressing. There was a big fight after this bootleg came out, hope you find the original much better quality than the bootleg repressing.
Regards, James
