China Crisis - Difficult Shapes and Passive Rhythms

The first of two masterpieces. More adventurous and sophisticated in their use of synthesizers than most of their contemporaries, their music might have had less immediate chart appeal, but has aged considerably better, similar to Simple Minds' "New Gold Dream" and Japan's "Tin Drum", but with slightly more optimistic and poppier tunes. Highlights: Red Sails, Seven Sports For All, African and White, No More Blue Horizons, Some People. Tracklisting: 01 Seven Sports for All 3:18 02 No More Blue Horizons 3:48 03 Feel to Be Driven Away 2:55 04 Some People I Know to Lead Fantastic Lives 3:33 05 Christian 5:37 06 African and White 3:46 07 Are We a Worker 3:30 08 Red Sails 4:43 09 You Never See It 2:57 10 Temptation's Big Blue Eyes 3:25 11 Jean Walks in Fresh Fields

youve got a lot of great stuff on here, and i was wondering if you have anything by the mighty lemon drops or the lime spiders ?

Hi dbluz4, I actualy have them both but I am kind of hesitant posting stuff that only a handful will download. However I'll see what happens, if I locate the CDs, I might up either or both this weekend. cheers

In the late 80's I had an super-cool double 7" with an awesome, live version of Christian. I've been looking for that song for a long time, now. Thanks.
