Alpha Centauri - 1977 - Alpha Centauri
Alpha Centauri were an American band, formed in Greely, Colorado, in 1971. They then moved to Canada and gathered themselves even more of a following with extensive touring, playing right round the country. Before the internet really took off, this was one sought after album, commanding high prices by many dealers in the know. But then a re-issue in 1995 on Pacemaker Records, and the internet being made readily available to the man in the street, this kinda lost its aura of the unobtainability. A great album, if a little dated, full of flashy guitar and keyboard interplay. Kurt Smith (vocals, guitar), Jess Redmon (keyboards, vocals), Garth Hannum (bass, vocals, 1975-83) and Randy Thompson (drums) 01 - Hard Life 02 - One Night At A Time 03 - I'm A Rebel 04 - Earth In Motion 05 - Love Is A Curse 06 - You Shot Me Down 07 - Love Only You 08 - Make It All Rock 'n' Roll LINK RS or LINK FS
