Celena Duncan - Faster Than The Eye Can See

Celena was yet another diva on the eighties High Energy scene. She was a young soul singer and a professional dancer, who came from Cardiff in Wales, and had a few notable R&B funk type singles on RCA in the early eighties. I came across her and made some records for the Nightmare label. The first one was this song, "Faster Than The Eye Can See", which I wrote and produced with Fiachra Trench, and which we released in 1986, one of the early records on the label. We then did two further singles with her, on the same label, "Questions And Answers" and "Running For The Moon". This video once again was shot at that amazing night in Heaven in 1987, called "A Nightmare On Villiers Street". We hired a professional camera crew to shoot all the artists with three cameras, and that's how we have so much priceless footage from twenty years ago of a bygone era.

One of my favourite releases on the legendery Nightmare label.. I remember spending endless saturday afternoon's in Les Cockell's tiny record shop listening to all these classic tracks. Running for the moon is a gem.

Les Cokell was my best friend. I miss him. We fell out for a few years before he died.

I loved also her song "I want your love back"

Les was a lovely guy and a very talented DJ. I recently found a couple of his own releases ! A great disco remix album called ENERGHIGHS and his version of MAGIC FLY which he recorded with Andy Robbins on your Saturday label way back in 1988/89.

A brilliant Hi-NRG classic from Celena Duncan which appeared on the Nightmare Records label which followed the legendary Record Shack label. All this was thanks to Ian Levine and Fiachra Trench. The music industry owes those guys so much...they are iconic legends!
