Where the fuck is Matti Alfonzetti? It's been a while since I've heard anything about him. He should be more prominent. One the the best Vocalists in the business. Here's a couple. One early, one later, both quality.

Yeah, absolute Killer! A timely reminder of CJ's legacy.

Nice comparison. Are you sure your only 21?

It's a bit weird, the only thing they have in common is the chorus.

Thanks mate.

Great track. I actually heard this version first.

C'mon Thomas, you knew this thread was gonna be hijacked by this sort of stuff.

Existance - Dead or Alive. It's my first Saturday off in a while and I'm smashing the tunes (and beers). Not sure if I've posted this before, but fuck it, I'll post it again.

Love.Might.Kill. - Xtc. Great band, Great track, Great album.

For someone of my age, the name Midge Ure is synonymous with "Ultravox", but his solo track, "If I Was" was a big hit in '85 and brings back heaps of memories for me.

Joey Tempest - Pleasure and Pain. One from Joey's Great solo album of '95.

Welcome back mate.

Gary Powers loves these guys.

Another classic Drummer/Vocalist combo.

Here's another surprising one, Keith Slack from Steelhouse Lane. A Drummer by trade who filled in one night for an AWOL Vocalist with an older band. Pre Steelhouse Lane of course.

Three songs from the killer "Von Groove" '92 album "Once in a Lifetime". A great band that features a Drummer as Lead Vocalist. There's a few examples of that, but it's fairly uncommon.

Nice. Thanks Stefan and just for the record, I know this isn't your thread, but just wanted to let you know that even though I may not leave a comment on all of your threads, I certainly view them and greatly appreciate them as all of us do here.

One of the best ever.

Yeah, the original is THE version of course. I wasn't claiming Prayer '94 was superior, but it's still a Killer version that I reckon should be considered. A bit of a no brainer TBH.

Me too. I don't get the RATT comparison at all. I always got a Danger Danger vibe from these guys.

This may be controversial, but If it happened, then I reckon "Prayer '94" should be included.

Here's one more.

Sic Vikki - I Don't Want Nobody But Yours. I remember buying this CD in '93 not knowing anything about them. Turning it over and seeing Steve Plunkett as producer sealed the deal. The album is definitely one of the unsung Masterpieces of the genre.

You'd be wrong.

He sang this track on one of the Liberty N Justice albums.
