So now the Dynamic Duo have completed their November challenge and after some bitter exchanges are now challenging each other to see whose post is most annoying.
RJHog strikes first with Bruce Springsteen, Jon? We shall see... All I know is that we all suffer when these two can't get their act together. So in comes SHT to save the day yet again. Too bad nobody listens to this small, time friendly, high quality playlist week over week. But no time for bitterpills, I'll leave that RJ and Jon.
This week I received the Rock Candy Records new release bundle from Honeymoon Suite and now you all get to hear the love. Its kind of a three-fer hidden treasure fest...
Ladies and Gentlemen - HONEYMOON SUITE..
The band was originally formed in 1981 by lead vocalist and guitarist Johnnie Dee (of Niagara Falls, Ontario), Keyboardist Brad Bent (of Toronto, Ontario), and original drummer Mike Lengyell, formerly with The Diodes. By 1983, the line-up changed, with Dee (the only original remaining member) now on rhythm guitar and lead vocals, along with new recruits Derry Grehan on lead guitar and Dave Betts on drums. Grehan became the band's primary songwriter, and penned "New Girl Now," which won them an unsigned band contest put on by Toronto radio station Q107.

I had the first and second album and, except for a few tracks, wasn't really too into Honeymoon Suite. Most of their stuff was too poppy for me, but the first track here is good, the second not that good and the third is pretty good. See, I now have a greatest hits disc and it has what I want and I believe 2/3 of these tracks are on that disc. "Feel It Again" is a great song, but you didn't include that here which I guess I understand since you hate me, but that's ok. I'll grab my greatest hits disc and listen to it there whenever I want.
Hey, you also posted a Canadian band. Another dig at Rjhog and his post this week? VERY interesting. VERY, VERY interesting.
I have bought a few albums from Rock Candy Records and everyone should check their website out. You will find some things you probably haven't thought of in years or have never heard. Their prices are reasonable too.
Plus you can get them cheaper at importcds.com and use SAVE10 to get an additional 10% off. Not a shill!
I liked the song New Girl Now, but I never really even tried to get into this band. Maybe that was a mistake.
Burning In Love - Wow! This song is great. This is a truly lost hidden gem. And Scott found it. Awesome. I like everything about this song.
Wounded - This has an air of familiarity to it for me. Jon's wrong, it's not bad at all. And it sounds reminiscent of Bon Jovi to me. So Scott likes this song, which sounds like Bon Jovi, so he must like Bon Jovi. Right? Nice guitar playing on both of these tracks.
Love Changes Everything - Another cool sounding song. With a terrific little guitar solo. Three for three on this one Scott.
Song Ranking:
1. Burning In Love
2. Love Changes Everything
3. Wounded
Terrific post. I'm gonna get one of these albums for sure.
