THERE WON'T EVER, EVER BE ANYTHING LIKE THE 80'S AGAIN!!!... SO PROUD TO LOVE THE MUSIC FROM THE ERA I GREW UP IN!!!.....

Very rare band but you can find their Cds on Ebay!

[TheLost80s]

Their Cds are being sold on Ebay in case anyone was interested. I was really shocked to find them in that form but they are remastering many obscure bands from the 80s. Face to Face, Device, One To One, and Altered Images are just a few that we have purchased on Ebay!

@vastjosie, the full Nine Ways To Win record has been relased on CD, however a bit tricky to notice. As you might know Nine Ways To Win was a side project for the guys in the band Random Hold and Nine Ways To Win songs are on disc 2 of Random Hold CD called "Differing Views". It's on amazon at a great price.

Love this...I used to dance to this song in clubs, in San Diego, in the early 80's. Makes me smile.....Thanks for posting!!!

I loved this band back in the 80's. I wish I could find this album. Unfortunately, the album I had got ruined in a house fire back in 2003.
