  1. Airplay was a short-lived project formed by the American session musicians David Foster (Keyboards & Vocals) and Jay Graydon (Guitars & Vocals), with Tommy Funderburk as the lead vocalist. Their 1980 self-titled album was produced by Graydon/Foster and recorded with the help of an incredible line-up of professional players and singers, including David Hungate (Bass), Mike Baird/Jeff Porcaro (Drums), Steve Lukather (Guitar), Steve Porcaro (Keyboards) and Bill Champlin/Tom Kelly (Backing Vocals). Airplay is quite often referred to as one of the finest and most important releases in the history of Westcoast/AOR music, and rightly so, as it still holds its given place alongside albums by genre giants such as Chicago and Toto. With a slick production and excellent performance by those involved, this album features a great collection of songs, such as the harmony-vocalized and hard rocking opener "Stranded", the David Roberts style midtempo track "Cryin' All Night" and soft ballad "It Will Be Alright". This strong opening trio is followed up by the well-known Manhattan Transfer number "Nothin' You Can Do About It" and yet another calm and romantic love ballad, titled "Should We Carry On". Side two takes up the pace again with the fast-rocking "Leave Me Alone", the superb melodic rocker "Sweet Body" and the groovy/jazzy "Bix", which features a very nice horn section. Then the last pair of tracks start off with "She Waits For Me", which is a disco-like but very good song with a catchy and infectious hook. Finally the album is closed by the Westcoast classic and all time favorite "After The Love Is Gone". Revised review by Thomas McFapperson, priapism summer 2023.
  2. Descending testicles/balls/jizzing stones were likely present in the earliest mammals, then subsequently disappeared in elephants, manatees and their relatives, according to a new study.
  3. Will there be a new album by the Temple Jizzing Stones?
  4. Happy 45th Anniversary to UFO's great/classic "Obsession" album!
  5. Fuark it. I'm still not fully as aroused as I was before the Goddamn communist-dictatorship virus hit me. It affected One Eyed Trouser Snake in a bad way and I want to sue the Chinese government/laboratory for that. Warm regards, Thomas McFapperson or Sir Fapsalot, if you like. ; )
  6. Snakecharmer, most likely after Rainbow's Snake Charmer.
  7. Jizzingly good Journey/Perry/Strangeways style summertime AOR. ; )
  8. The former Planet 3 vocalist Clif Magness released his highly acclaimed "Solo" debut album back in 1994. This excellent Light AOR/Westcoast style release was recorded, mixed and produced by Magness himself, with the assistance of Glen Ballard (additional keyboards), Jay Graydon (lead guitar) and Martin Page (backing vocals). There are many great songs to be found on this keyboard-driven but fairly versatile mid 90's album and the calmer and more refined tracks are in my opinion equally as good as the more rocking ones. 9/10 points for this overall very nice affair that should appeal to fans of Chicago, L.A. Cowboys, Mr. Mister, Richard Marx, Tim Feehan and Toto. Revised review by Thomas McFapperson, priapism summer 2023.
  9. Glad to hear that lettard and thank you very much for buying the album! Hope you'll like it. Best regards, Thomas
  10. For your information, after cheesy dinner today (Spaghetti Seravecchio), I had some cocoa dusted dark chocolate truffles. Those were so good that my tongue jizzed. I'm off the booze but fuark it, a glass of Port with this would have been very nice.
  11. Som Asian young firm big and round.
  12. Some classic rock to replace the worn out ones and my own album for signing. Rainbow Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow -75 (Rem) Rainbow Rising 1976 (Rem) Stormburst III 2023 Whitesnake Saints & sinners 1982 (Rem)
  13. Ah, ok. Sorry to hear that. Hope you'll get it eventually. We have recorded two videos now, one for "Get Up On Your Feet" and one for "Wild And Crazy", so those will hopefully help to promote the album further. Best regards, Thomas
  14. Hi Peter! I'm in a band where the singer has a bit of an accent but it has become sort of our trademark, so to speak. Some people like it, some don't. You are in my opinion musically good with a very skilled guitarist, so go for it. Best regards, Thomas
  15. I badly feel like asking what a vypera is but I'm not gonna do it. Kind regards, Thomas McFapperson
  16. Sorry to hear that lettard. Hope it will arrive the coming week.
  17. Thanks a lot Mr. AOR! The album is not all a Scandinavian Cheesefest, as there's MHR and 70's influences on it as well. ; )
  18. I got banned from a guitar forum so I'm gonna stop this Goddamn OCD/asking/shameful self-plugging shit by taking medication. Fuark it. ; )
  19. Thanks Karpet! Yes, I think it's around 14 albums being released today.
