Rick Astley, Teena Marie, Ruby Turner and more

These are the only Rick Astley albums I own: Reissues of "Whenever You Need Somebody", "Hold Me In Your Arms" and "Free/Body & Soul", plus the album "Keep It Turned On". But I mainly just listen to the first two, and the uptempo tracks on "Keep It Turned On". The rest are too slow in my opinion. Can't beat the eighties Stock Aitken Waterman and PWL sound!



More CD's from my collection: "Show Me Love" by Robin S., "Shades Of Red" by Paris Red, "Jakie Quartz" by Jakie Quartz, reissue of "Women Hold Up Half The Sky" plus "The Motown Song Book", "Paradise (Japanese Edition)" and "The Other Side" by Ruby Turner, "It Must Be Magic" by Teena Marie and "Joey Lawrence" by Joey Lawrence.



And finally: Reissue of "Come On Inside" by Rena Scott, "House Of Cards" by Elen Cora, "Mystic Time" by Siberian Heat, reissues of "Emerald City", "Starchild", "Robbery" and "Naked To The World", plus "Ivory" and "Since Day One" by Teena Marie.

"How am I supposed to live without you?"

Some CD's from my record collection: Reissue of "Branigan 2" by Laura Branigan, "Glitter To The Neon Lights" by Nicki French, "Echoes" by Will Young, reissues of "Movin' On" and "Half And Half" by Vicki Sue Robinson, "Start Over" by Cheryl Lynn and finally "The Girl I Used To Know", "Trust" and "Can You Keep A Secret? (89 Mix)" by Brother Beyond.



"Don't Let Go: The Very Best Of En Vogue" by En Vogue, "Caution" by Mariah Carey, "Ambush In The Night" by Jayne Collins, "Say Goodbye To La La Land" by Sirens,  reissue of "Genobia" by Genobia Jeter, "Peace" by Sabrina Johnston, soundtrack to "The Phantom Of The Opera" movie, "Boylife" by Lo-Fi-Fnk and "Flashback!" by Björn Again.
