Drum Theatre-Eldorado

[upfrontbear74]

Love this song, I have 3 of their 4 singles on 7 inch, this, Living In The Past and Home is Where The Heart Is, and would never ever get rid of them, even if my record player packed up, just need to find Moving Targets on 7 inch, and the CD Everyman which doesn't cost an arm and a leg

[Renegade4439]

I saw them in Sheffield around 86/87 they were the support band for Human League.

[un4gettablefire1]

@Renegade4439 hi renegade4439 . i was at that same human league gig at the Sheffield city hall. i seem to remember they were all suited and booted that night, unlike the previous time i saw them when they supported 'King' (again at the Sheffield city hall) they were all dressed as Indians and the energy they had on stage was unbelievable, they totally blew me away that night. i even still have one of their drum sticks : )

[megaphoenix2001]

1 of my fav 80s songs should have been a huge hit

[RJCStrijen]

Nergens te vinden dit nummer. Iemand een idee waar ik dit (betaald) kan downloaden.

Does anybody know where to get this song? (payed download) It is not in iTunes

[tomhillybilly]

loved this band! i remember going 2 a king concert in bham in the 87 and drum theatre were the warm up band and wen the encore shout came up at the end of the king set we all shouted 4 drum theatre 2 come back out!! pity they never quite made it in the uk i thought they were fantastic!!

[TheRobbi08]

I have the LP on Tape, it's great, still love listening to it

[dogleeds]

I still have the album (everyman), i thought that i was the only one that bought this...£100 eh?

[sandy11080]

ma che fine avete fatto?mi mancate con la vostra musica.

[RvdB1965]

Mooi nummer, maar zingen ze nu "sjalalie sjalala" ?

Heeft vader Abraham de tekts soms meegeschreven ?

[roadrunner1ification]

Well done Romy I'm really proud of drum theathre as well. I wish drum theathre could have been remembered as an even bigger band in the 80s. In 1985 I bought your other single Living in the Past after hearing it on Saturday Superstore. It was a favourite by Keith Chegwin as well.

[MegaYaden]

i love this band but i dont find any songs nowere ........ this song is really awsome

im sry that today missing that soch good music ,,,,,,,80"s come back pls i miss those years ..... i was born 1986 but i love that music 80s 90s rock and electric pop

is so great XD

[tomhillybilly]

first saw drum theatre in 85 wen they supported king in there love and pride tour. at the end of kings set and with the encore chant we all asked 4 drum theatre 2 come back out, needless 2 say we didnt get our encore lol!

[Lacivetta]

@TheRomymoore : Hi Romy, I was one of your father's band groupie when I was 18. I used to follow them in Italy and England with my friends. You are right to be proud: they really where good boys, never a scandal, nothing to share with today's rehab stars. Take care.

[littlenige]

ADORED THIS TUNE FOR YEARS. Were they produced by Trevor Horn? Their stuff had a classy production quality about it.

[gvulpis]

there are 2 video version of Eldorado.....

[belnea67]

bellissima....canzone...tantis­simi ricordi mi legano a questa canzone....mitici anni ottanta....grazie

[damianbenedict100]

Hi Simon, Paul, Gary and Pat. This is Miles' son, Damian aged 21. Do you know where my dad is?

[DutchHeartMonger1]

From the times, MTV was still fun to watch.... Love this song!

[depecheboy68]

fantastic song along with the rest of the album

[marialthomas]

Bought this song all those years ago.

[Jesus4Truth]

What's the drummer guys name, the dark hair, on top of the tallest car? The guy who appears at the very end of the clip hitting his drums looking to his right, then he looks straight ahead.  Anyone know his name?

[jaycee1601]

Wow I loved these guys and was very lucky to meet them one afternoon in Birmingham Pat was such a star!!!!!!!!!

[LadyScarlet2007]

Una band che m'é piaciuta moltissimo perché molto colorati, freschi, estivi... E come non dimenticare l'estate, del 1986? Soprattutto quei giorni di Luglio su a Foppolo?

[Giumbolo1970]

grandi!

[MrZidan262]

@Giumbolo1970 VERO..............

[Timithos]

I never met Kent Brainard, but his dad was our attorney. I'm glad his music career is still successful.

[denny70mi]

che ricordi.... fantastici gli anni 80!!!

[KrazeHouse1988]

anche allora l'italia era ricettacolo di sfigati che nessun altro stato civilizzato si filava....

[carloelia1]

[usarfireman]

@eggbeater26 I ripped the album to my iTunes from my Everyman CD

[eggbeater26]

@usarfireman

Where did you get the Cd from?

[usarfireman]

@eggbeater26 I bought the CD when it originally came out, according to amazon its worth quite a bit now as its in perfect condition

[TheRomymoore]

Hi Miles, Paul, Gary, Kent and Pat. This is Simon's daughter, Romy aged 8. I am very proud of my daddy having been a popstar and I love the video of Eldorado.

[Dutchhobbit]

yes, you can be proud of your dad, this song is great...

[secretcaptivation]

@TheRomymoore My mum is 49 and she LOVES this song still :-p

[claudiota1970]

Eh! bei tempi... le medie,i primi approcci,le gite...cazzo come vola il tempo..!

[danyxluna]

io avevo 15 anni più o meno, e il loro poster appeso in camera.... mamma mia quanto tempo è passato!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[sterlina69]

aaaaaaaaaaaaa che bei ricordi....... grazie di cuore

ciao Eldoradoooooo 1985

[janahr]

Sorry,Jacqui.I only have a vinyl copy of the album.

[LAKESIDESTUD]

I was lucky to have know these guys Gary Tarn,vocals Simon Moore guitar and Kent Brainard.The album should be available on Amazon...I went to Sarm studios when they were recording with Gary Langham...one of Trevor Horn's guys.Its brilliant and a real shame they didnt get a chance! Simon writes music for TV as does Kent who is a successful TV commercial composer.The drummer I believe joined the rock group UFO dont know what happpened to the bass player but he was really excellent! Mike Marshall.

[lauri1970]

What happened to the singer...Gary Tarn? You don't mention him.

[MikeGiunta]

i love how a roto tom sounds like a snare. who is this, devo?

[s3faded]

did he die?

[ohiderr]

i'm 12 and what's this

[MOTORMAK]

I have the LP here in Italy. Great time!!

[ildico1]

Drop dead gorgeous men!

[janahr]

I saw this band back in the '80's.If I remember rightly,they were supporting King.The gig was at the Manchester Apollo.I had the album too,on vinyl.Very underrated."Moving Targets" and "Wide Sargasso Sea" were exellent tracks.

[Dutchhobbit]

[mistykinsey]

OMG i used to love these guys!! :-D

[Beakerinnetje]

I do understand RighteousBrother! I thought I was the only one as well....when you're young you think you're the only one on the world who knows something (in particular)!!!! :-)

[SuperDRY125ml]

The new world

[kungfusnowbunny]

Wait! I am jonsing for their song "Home is where the Heart is" anyone know what Im talking about? Must have a copy! LOL no seriously....

[Almull5]

Ha ha - I have Home is where the Heart is. If I knew how to get it onto my PC I would post for you. It's funny how you think you're the only one who knows a song - turns out I'm not!!

[kungfusnowbunny]

LOL!  I can't wait to see it!! This really proves nobody is EVER an Island!

:)

[kungfusnowbunny]

OMG!! I LOVED This Video so long ago, once upon a time when I was living in Florence Italy and at 21 having the time of my life!! There was another song this band sung that I lied so much more. So funny, so cheesy, so awesome!!

[zzkasteddu]

Me li ricordo i Drum Theatre con Eldorado ma che fine avranno fatto? la canzone è bella!

[RighteousBrother]

I thought I was the only person in the universe who could remember this - wonder what the guys are up to now

[SuperDRY125ml]

Textbook of base

[DeanTemptation]

"Living in the past"!was the Greatest Hit from Drum Theatre.Not this one

[pegacube]

thanks for this song!!

[Beakerinnetje]

Fearador, indeed this video is a bit pathetic. But weren't all 80's video's like that..? The track is great anyway :-)

Let's dance!

[SuperDRY125ml]

私も

Baseが

好きです。

[Carolinus69]

p.s. Didn't they do 'Home is Where the Heart is' as well?

[littlenige]

Sure did.

[Carolinus69]

OMG - can't believe I've just found this - I loved these guys back in the day - anyone know where you can download this (and Living in the Past)??

[sastal]

They actually were a two-hit wonder. "Living in the Past" followed this single and received well-acclaimed airlplay.

[SuperDRY125ml]

【2回目】

[fearador]

hillarious

[Beakerinnetje]

Nice song. So eighties. In the style of The Breakfast Club.

[ChameleonDue]

And then?

And both perfect anyway. :-)

[Giraffe333]

Kent is a music composer producer in London.

[Giraffe333]

Paul snook has a myspace page somewhere and now lives in New York. Simon Moore went on tour with Thompson Twins in 87 but not sure what happened after that. They were great guys, especially Paul and Kent B.

[faggio60]

Where is Jonh Petrucci?

[nicholavaughan]

Seriously.. if any of the band are out there please let us know what happened after this... I was gutted you weren't megastars... a travesty of justice if ever there was one... Simon - you were a poppet to my sister when we saw you supporting the Human League.. you made her eighties!!

[nicholavaughan]

Ahh Drum Theatre... Loved Loved Loved this.. and had a HUGE crush on Miles Benedict (one of the drummers who left prior to my seeing them as a support act for The Human League in the mid eighties)... still in my top ten "feel Great" songs

[linoetitino]

Che nostalgia!!!! A LEI piaceva tanto questa canzone e a me piaceva tanto LEI!!!! Em. Vi. di Napoli se ti ricordi di me RISPONDIMI CHE IO TI AMO ANCORA!!!!!!!!! NON TI HO MAI DIMENTICATA!!!!!!

[Paardekut]

When I first heard it I thought it was Go West.

Shame they only had this one hit.

Classic 80's track that never wears off.

[bobross95]

This was when music made sense!!

[nuneatonred]

i saw these supporting ' KING ' in brum hippadrome about 1985/6 very good for a support band.

[upfrontbear74]

Dosn't Gari Tarn look like Johnny Galeki who used to be in Rosanne.

[Appelo52]

Isn't that Adam Ant singing?

Great drums I like this song there's some raw beat in it.

Can someone tell me if I am right with Adam Ant?

[bassatnight]

Appelo52 Def not Adam Ant... Can't recall the singers name I have the album somewhere will see if I can dig out for ya.

[incazzinga]

Great song makes me feel happy....new world we can build it up and it will last forever..

[sagan1976]

I can only say this! Holy fucking shit! I haven't heard this song in eons!!!

[michaelplaying]

A good song last for ever.

[joostisabelle]

great song, takes me back to '85/86

[Led1971]

Awesome...Love this Song!!!

[that80sguy1]

[SuperDRY125ml]

この曲を　初めて聴いたのは　２０年くらい前です。

今も　好きです。

[minislie]

[sebastjanl]

Fantastic track! I was looking for it badly! Amazing literally

[littlenige]

You just made my day - can't believe this is on here! Totally adore this track. Thankyou!!!!!

[paquisiempre]

[loudness73]

colega probate  drum theatre - moving targets chauuu nos vemos

[bonovox86]

yo he buscado por mucho tiempo esa cancion... siempre la escuchaba en la radio y no la encontraba... ni siquiera encontraba la letra por internet. PEro hoy un amigo que trabaja en una radio me copio 3 versiones del mismo tema... si lo quieren... ponganse en contacto conmigo... la cancion es espectacular!!!

Drum Theatre - moving targets

[Alfadeth]

Esa cancion es un clasico de los 80's, la tengo en el Cd de la FM Laser [emisora que ya no existe ,era de esa epoca y los temas que contiene el compilado lo pasaban en la tira juvenil "clave de sol"]

Salu2 !

[rpm3345]

Yo tengo el vinilo de FM Laser con Moving Targets, lo busqué años y lo conseguí hace unos 3 meses.Imperdible.

[davidandgracie]

I used to know Pat, the guy on the keyboards. A nicer bloke you could never wish to meet. Fond memories of him and our mate Karen. Hope life has been good to both of them !!!

[Novembre41]

They were someway tied to Culture Club, weren't they?

[Spicegurrrl]

thank you sooo much for posting this song! I loved Drum Theatre, I have a few of their singles (on vinyl) still.

[smashie99]

recently bought Everyman on ebay have had it on tape since release and now its mine! should have been huge. they were suited and booted when duran duran came on the scene, but Duran got the contract

[mirzamarco]

In fact, percussionist Miles Benedict kind of looks like Nick Rhodes in the Arcadia era!

[gmansi]

@mirzamarco totally agree!! Also "El Dorado"... and "El Diablo"....

[DJFreez]

There's a great remix of this track by Ben Liebrand. Try and find the 'Minimix 1' CD (EP), which has this 7:10 version. You might be able to get it from his personal site.

[shamannone]

ho cercato questo video per anni!

grazie!

[owainy71]

The Album (moving target) was great. Favourite track was Wide Sarggaso Sea. Lent my album out never to see it again. 80's in a tin, cracking.

[upfrontbear74]

The Album was called Everyman, well it was in the UK, and it did nothing, but it should have been huge.

[owainy71]

You're right upfrontbear. It was Everyman. Moving target was a single on the album.

Just seen the CD on Amazon for £125! I'm Looking around the internet for downloads cheaper than that.

[upfrontbear74]

OOOOH never thought of downlaods cool.

[beretaproductions]

Geez this takes me back i rem seeing them live supporting King Back in the 80's great track

[Cerifwrdd]

@beretaproductions I saw them on that tour too! they were great live!

[locust720]

Che bei tempi gli anni 80

[couldtoldyouso]

they were very good. singer has a really good voice. never heard 'moving target? I've got the song but video was not realized, I think.

[doomussie]

F@$ckin' great, thanx!

[MOTORMAK]

GREAT GREAT GREAT

[starless1969]

really TRASH!!!

[Christofis]

Doe any one know if The member of Drum Theatre are on myspace.... It would be great to start a community of interest, the net effect to see if the would gig!

[couldtoldyouso]

I don't know but I'm intereted in. I'd love to hear the album. (I've got Eldorado, moving target , Home... , living in the past. on web I couldn't find anything on this group. Please let me know if you can..By

[BritAbroad2]

Can someone please also load Home (is where the heart is) as well as Living in the Past. Loved this band and drove everyone mad playing this album. Brilliant hearing it again after solong.

[verdejade30]

Please I'd like to hear "moving targets" I can't find that song anyplace. Someone can help me???

[Christofis]

Hi I have the song on the Album - Every man, could send it to you in mpg form?

[couldtoldyouso]

excuse me have you lyrics of the songs? i've been searching for them for .... 20 years!

[marcdb5]

Loved this song but does anyone have 'Living In The Past' which I think is even better than Eldorado!

[tordoff]

Living in the past was released on Epic label b side was seventh sign reference on record sleeve is A6798.

B side to Eldorado single is Jungle of people ref A6619. I bought both singles in 84/85 when Drum Theatre supported King at the Manchester Apollo.

[jayne31]

i first heard of drum theatre while they supported king in the manchester apollo, they were fab

[upfrontbear74]

I got both singels to, got them from a record fair about 5 years ago for 20p each, and played them to death

[chezzie789]

i went out with the guitarist, although i cant remember his name lol

[tordoff]

Simon Moore?

[philthyling2]

simon moore nice guy !!! owns BOOM now

[mspeekay]

Great to hear/see this again - I loved this band and saw them live a couple of times. I didn't know they'd done an album - on a quest now!!

[Christofis]

Hi mspeekay: the album was called Everyman released in 1986 on the CBS record label.

[Beakerinnetje]

Nice song - it cheers up my day. Makes me remind the Eighties with bands like the Breakfast Club, Simply Red and so on. Great!

[sastal]

I remember another video for this song, where three of them drive through the desert somwehere in Africa.

[DavidCurci]

Yes, this is the US version!

[harrismille]

A blast from the past which typtifies the music scene in the UK during the 1980's of artists who briefy enjoyed success at that time.

[sunraker27]

i remember this band. towards the end they became a

trio. 'living in the past' was their best song.

[chezzie789]

I loved these guys and met them when they were backing KING. Fantastic. They were on eastenders once in the background in the queen vic.

[svenstrange]

I still have the 12" of this song..

really liked it.

[stunningplayerette]

eldorado (1985), living in the past, home is where the heart is (1986). Then they re-released Eldorado in early '87 with a different look AND a new video. After that came the album and the "moving Targets" single. Love this band, would love to know whatever happened to them. And I would love to see all the vids. THANX for posting, much luv xoxo

[JACKIEANN65]

I thought their biggest hit was living in the past.

[suzylatex]

I never thought id hear this again,I saw them in sheffield many years ago < too many to remember :-)> one of thoes records i regret loosing.thanks to whoever posted this, its made my day xxx

[SKB89]

Awesome work ! I have had the 12" of this song for almost 20 years, great to finally get the original clip. :)

[Tykeaboutit]

Brings back memories, had their album, but only put a few tracks on tape (have to look in the loft!) have got a track called 'Moving Targets'.

[Tykeaboutit]

Brings back memories, had their album, but only put a few tracks on tape, including one called 'Moving Target' which I still have.

[Warriorroger]

Such a great song, I spent years lookin for it, til I found it 1 year ago.

[OctoJan]

They had at least one more hit. I've got a couple of singles. This one and one called Home is Where the Heart Is. And there might be one more, I don't remember. Cool band though.

[TroyTempest]

Right On! Home Is Where The Heart Is was equally good. Or should I say 'is' equally good. Both of these have stood the test of time. Phenomenal tracks.
