Hi people. I was wanting to post this here, as I have scoured the internet back to front for many years now, trying to find information on a band called Suite Jane. They had a song "Innocent 'Till Now" which appeared on an episode of Playboy's Hot Rocks show back in the early days.

 

 

For many years, both my brother and I have tried to contact record label Spectradyne Records (which could maybe have been a side-label of Playboy's cable channel), stores, magazines and websites. For a long time, people did not believe us that the band actually existed until others had seen the video we had recorded from cable too.

It has surfaced on Youtube, and yet still no further information known about the band or the wonderful singer behind it. Link posted above.

PLEASE HELP solve the mystery ;-)

Thanks in advance.

Any idea what town / state / country they are from? Do you known any of the band members names?

I did a quick Google search and this topic is on a number of boards.

 

There is a thread those goes deep into some history like maybe this is some hired players doing this time for the videos.

 

Otherwise I could come up with zero.

Yeah I did see those posts on the other forums too. My first thought was that maybe this band only had this one song before they called it quits but it seems strange for an unknown band with only one song to have produced a video clip.

 

Anyway I do hope the original poster finds an answer soon. I posted it on FB in the hope someone there might recognise it.

Looks as if the poster has been MIA since starting this thread was started.

 

That said, I was provided the following intriguing information regarding the singer of the original posts song Lisa Jane and a previous band entitled Blackat which also included these members: Dave Morris - Guitars, Dale Holland - Drums and Carl Morris - Bass. Not much else out there but this adds a few more tracks for those that enjoy the singer...

 

 

 

 

Many thanks to (XXXXX), I will leave that up to them if they choose to take credit where credit is due.

Suite Jayne was a band in Austin Texas that existed in the late 80’s early nineties. The band consisted of Jayne(vocals) Tim(keyboards) Ed (bass) Will (gtr) Bill (gtr) now deceased. There was an albums worth of material recorded but never released or finalized. Spectradyne was a video company but not a record label. They made videos for the playboy channel I believe but it was long ago and hard to remember for sure, They choose this song and shot the video and we were allowed to use it for promotional purposes. When the music scene changed and alternative became the norm the band was disbanded.

    • As best I can tell, it’s Acousticyzed re-issued with new artwork, and in all the various formats mentioned. This is exactly why I didn’t worry about picking it up earlier this year, as I figured MS would whip out the holy schlong and try to get the hardcore fans to shell out for a second version. 
    • Mirror to the Sky - Yes
    • Not really something that fully appeals to me, but I certainly don't see it as dogshit. If it came on the radio (not that I listen to radio) I certainly would not turn it off or skip it on a playlist.
    • Yeah, this whole thread offends me. 
    • I'm liking that first track as well
    • Interesting song choice as far as covering Journey, but they likely wanted to go with a lesser known track.   I'm not a fan of the vocal effects nor the guitar tone.  It's a skip for me, but not as bad as I was expecting after reading the prior comments.
    • The nice voice will change for future records, according to Graywolf's Facebook page:    
    • Mirror Mirror-Dokken
    • Ehh? Is this the same content retitled, or a completely different set of live material?... there's so much wrong with this announcement: This album was previously released as a very-limited CD/DVD.  It sold out instantly.  So we went back in and did a Dolby Atmos remaster/remix of the album, and all new artwork. But CD and DVD don't support Dolby Atmos. That's not a thing. Blu-Ray yes, but not CD or DVD. ALSO - Not only will this be available on streaming platforms but we will soon be announcing the release of Vinyl, CD/DVD, and Cassette.  Yes, you read that right.  Cassette.  Oh - let's talk about the video - the BluRay video has been upgraded to 4K for this release "Upgraded to 4k"... whut? Unless it was reshot using 4K cameras (or was originally shot in 4K but simply authored to blu-ray in SDR) and is completely reauthored to support HDR, a 4K UHD release may not actually be an improvement. Boomers saying boomer things...
    • From the Michael Sweet FB page: You asked for it!  And we listened!  To Hell with the Amps, our acoustic album, is being released worldwide on May 10 to streaming services everywhere.   This album was previously released as a very-limited CD/DVD.  It sold out instantly.  So we went back in and did a Dolby Atmos remaster/remix of the album, and all new artwork.   ALSO - Not only will this be available on streaming platforms but we will soon be announcing the release of Vinyl, CD/DVD, and Cassette.  Yes, you read that right.  Cassette.  Oh - let's talk about the video - the BluRay video has been upgraded to 4K for this release.   There are so many exciting things to come with this release.  Stay tuned here and at Stryper.com We are looking forward to taking this acoustic album on the road starting May 30.
