Never heard of these before.. ‘Somebody Like You’ is a great tune. Good shout man. 

Shea Roxi were from San Francisco and had a bunch of demos that were floating about back in the day and i remember Kelv Hellrazer raving about them back then. AOR blvd records finally released them as the album 1988 but i would loved to have heard these with a decent production job.

Thanks for the info - I’ll track that album down. Agreed, I can imagine these sounding pretty huge with a decent production.

AWESOME!!! Album and one of MTM's best releases. I remember reading an interview with Brian Mcdonald were he said Chicago and Def Leppard were some of his influences and you can hear that all over this album. Plus you have the Awesome Reb Beach playing, stellar stuff.

Awesome song and still sounds as good now as it did when it was released in 81

Have to mention their album Just Getting Started 2007 which has to be one of the best comeback albums ever.

Love this track and many other Loverboy/Mike Reno tracks.

One question I've always had about the title "Working For The Weekend" is, does it mean working over the weekend or does it mean working Monday to Friday "for the weekend"?

I'm still not sure.

Another cracker soundtrack song from Mike Reno, featuring the great Ann Wilson.

On a side note for the Aussies, have any of you ever thought that Mike Reno sounds like John Farnham at times?

I always have.
