Rare Hits of The 80s Vol. 12 (Re-post)

Back in 2007, I started putting together these mixes of songs from rather obscure 80s bands that I believed deserved far more recognition. Anyhow I am re-posting this series for those who are new to TPB or missed them when they were first posted. If the mainstream music is all you know about the 80s, then get ready for a bit of revelation. This comp. includes so many cool songs that it's hell of a job to pick the best song, but if you ask me to choose the best three, then the vote goes to: 1) Strange Advance - We Run 2)Spoons - Nova Heart and 3)Flynn - The Only One. Enjoy and please seed while you can. Keep these mixes alive for the others. Track Listing: 01 The Adventures - Always 02 The Screaming Trees - Tangiers 03 Strange Advance - We Run 04 Two Of Us - Two Of Us 05 November Group - Pictures of the Homeland 06 Twins - Face To Face Heart To Heart 07 The Glove - Mouth To Mouth 08 Comateens - Ghosts 09 Leisure Process - Love Cascade 10 Spoons - Nova Heart 11 White Door - Behind The White Door 12 The Nobodys - I Scratch 13 Blue Zoo - Love Moves In Strange Ways 14 Flynn - The Only One 15 Secret Sanity - Pattern Of Life 16 Telex - Tell Me It's A Dream 17 Thirteen At Midnight - Other Passengers 18 Scarlet Fantastic - Stay 19 The Triffids - Goodbye Little Boy 20 Cloud Nine - Fraction Of A Second 21 Gangway - Going Away 22 The Bowling Balls - You Don't Know What It's Like To Be Alone In The House 23 Screaming For Emily - Last Goodbye 24 Slow Children - Spring In Fialta 25 I-Lands - Back Before The Pain 26 The Engine Room - Love Her (She's Poison)

Great stuff! Any chance that you could upload a higher bitrate, i.e. 320 kps?

dragonbandit314, seriously I did not think people would realize there are some new stuff added cause I thought only new downloaders would get this series.
@ikrhumba, sorry dude, there's the problem of bandwidth and HD space so that's why I post them in 192. From the other hand the majority of the songs are ripped from vinyl and most of them are not of a great quality anyways. Thabks for the comment though.

80zforever, I have been collecting your 'UPS' for a while now, and yes I do notice when you make an improvement to a collection. I now have the quandry, do I keep the old one or not??? I loved the 80's and you are showing me that I know nothing!!! You are one of the reasons that I joined TPB. Just to say thankyou. T

takes balls to request higher bitrate. i'm of the camp that the vinyl can sound better but even a 192kbps rip suffices quite well.
and dragonbandit, if you're referring to the 'hard copies' of tracks you've upped, than YES keep the originals...digital storage is fleeting and can fail.had it happen to me. getting a solid state drive is a good bet.

dragonbandit314, it's totally up to you man. I have them all and will be seeding them from time to time. Thanks for your comments and interest. Much appreciated.
