Taste The Rain

The best-known alter ego of the Harry Vanda/George Young songwriting team (the creative force behind the Easybeats), Flash and the Pan began simply as a between-production project in 1976. By 1979, the project had turned out a novelty hit with the single "Hey St. Peter." A second single, "Down Among the Dead," also became a hit throughout Australia and Europe, inspiring the release of the album Flash and the Pan. American radio began playing import copies which led to a deal with Epic Records. The album would soon reach the Top 100 in the U.S. despite the lack of a supporting tour.

Music Brokers presents a new volume in the series that has revolutionized the music industry: The Many Faces. A collection of albums that delve into the depths of many of the most important artists in pop music’s history. This time it’s The Beatles’ turn, the greatest band of all time. CD 1 is dedicated completely to the years were Pete Best was The Beatles drummer (before Ringo Starr). CD 2 is a tribute to their songs, and includes versions by stars such as Ike & Tina Turner, John Denver and Marmalade (who reached at # 1 in the UK with their version of Ob-La-Di, Ob -La-Da and that is included in The Many Faces). CD 3 is a fascinating tour through the originals versions of songs that The Beatles covered on their early Eps and the albums Please Please Me, With The Beatles, For Sale. Includes songs like Anna, Twist And Shout and Money (That’s What I Want). The Many Faces Of The Beatles is a wonderful trip through the world of The Beatles, an album to collect and to treasure.
