Distraction... Video Alphabet "H"

Forging ahead... more videos, more comments, more proof reading!

H is for Haircut 100 - "Love Plus One"



One of my favourite songs from the 80s! I love how jazzy New Wave music could be at times!

H is for Nick Heyward - "Kite"



The New Wave frontman of Haircut 100 went solo and a Twee Pop star was born! I am also "young and far too serious" ...but who isn't these days.

B is for Holy Hail - "Cool Town Rock"



I love this band so much! Remember when videos were like works of art? Video director Mirrorshade does!

H is for House of Love - "Shine On"



I dedicate this video to the former Camelot Records location that once inhabited the Camp Hill Mall. Their cutout CD table turned up this little gem one afternoon. I'd never found much of their music on disc at the time and then here it was for a mere $2.99! This band always reminded me of a blend of a band somewhere between The Alarm and The Jesus and Mary Chain.

H is for The Housemartins - "Happy Hour"



I got this tape for Christmas when I was thirteen along with the cassette of Closer by Joy Division. I remember being distinctly miffed at my mom thinking I didn't get any music I wanted for Christmas, only to discover my stocking was full of tapes! Thanks mom!

H is for Hurricane #1 - "Step Into My World"



The demise of Ride couldn't keep Andy Bell down, but it's a shame he and Hurricane #1 didn't last longer. His contributions on Oasis' Heathen Chemistry and Don't Believe The Truth albums were welcome though.
