Story behind the song
This song was the first song recorded for my groups 2nd album in 1989 Which would be titled "Fire Power 2" Our previous album in 1985 was titled "Fire Power 1" after the bands name, Fire Power. We began the recording sessions for the album right after Christmas in the winter of 1889 with "Be A Winner". However months later, half way through through the recording of the album ( Only five songs in ) we broke up and decided to go our separate ways. I continued to record overdubs on the songs to get them as close to a finished product as possible! It became almost impossible to complete without the rest of the group. I had never been on my own before as a solo artist. Being forced to play other instruments and sing all the vocals only made me grow as an artist! I look back now and see how it all was a blessing in disguise! We recorded 6 songs, 5 were mine and 1 by another member of the group. For the next year i was in and out of the studio driving 22 miles to record at $50.00 an hour and that was high back then and i could not continue! I would have loved to finish and do a final mix on these songs because they had real potential. I had to finally stop recording due to a lack of funds and i never got the original master tapes. So what you hear is the Re-mix version of "Be A Winner" but it was only Pre-mixed, it's not a final mix. I also have the incomplete unmixed version. Well, i decided to put the Unmixed Version and the "Re-mixed Version" on an EP after all these years along with other songs from that unfinished project. That's why i titled this (EP album) "Unfinished Business" because the songs were never completely finished, although they sound very close! Fortunately i was able to get a copy of each of the songs on a high quality cassette tape during my last session in the studio and that is what you hear. These tapes have been locked away for over 20 years! Thank God for technology because i was able to convert them to the MP3 format for downloading! The songs are "Comin Like A Thief" "Charismatic Dance" "Love Me Tomorrow" "Be A Winner" and "Perilous Times" I'm so glad to be able to share these archives from the past! I HOPE YOU ENJOY HEARING THEM AS MUCH AS I DID RECORDING THEM BACK IN 1989 AND 1990... You can purchase the 1990 (Ep album) or any (Single) in my Soundclick Mp3 store only on this website! ( Also available on itunes, amazon cdbaby and all major mp3 stores worldwide! ) )
