Honeymoon Suite – ‘New Girl Now’ – 7″ Single

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic5 Comments

Honeymoon Suite exploded on to the scene back in 1984 with their self-titled debut album all propelled by their debut single “New Girl Now”. The song went to #23 in their home country of Canada and only went to #57 in the U.S. So, maybe they didn’t explode on to the scene and it was more like a whimper. I remember seeing the song on MTV and I thought it was a great tune, but honestly, it didn’t make me run out and buy it. Granted, I didn’t have a job that year so I had no money to go out and get it.

The picture sleeve is really basic as it is a copy of the cover of their debut album. The back cover has a picture of all the band members including Gary Lalonde who plays bass; however, he didn’t play on the album as that was handled by Brian Brackstone. Gary was added to the band after the completion of the album. My pressing is the standard U.S. pressing and no non-album track on the B-Side. But I love saving 80’s picture sleeve singles from sitting in record stores and not getting loved.

The song was written by guitarists, Dermot (Derry) Grehan and the song was semi-biographical as he wrote after ending a relationship and moving off to college. The band started out as a cover band and would sneak their own songs in at the end of the sets and people noticed. They entered the song in to some local contest and actually one. This lead to more demos and eventually a record deal. For now, we are only focusing on the 7″ Single that I found this Summer while on vacation in Florida. It was in decent shape and it look like it needed to be adopted so I grabbed it. I figured my Canadian friends would be mad if I left it behind.

Bruce Fairbairn – Producer Extraordinaire #3

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic23 Comments

In my producer extraordinaire series, this is the 3rd producer who helped create some of my favorite albums.  The first post in the series was for Robert John “Mutt” Lange and then second post was for Brendan O’Brien.  Both legendary producers.

Bruce Fairbairn didn’t have as long as career as the first two guys due to his untimely death back in 1999.  However, during his brief time, he crafted some of the most memorable albums of the 80’s & 90’s and the albums sold well over 65 million copies if you just count the platinum and gold albums.

It all started in back in Canada in the late 70’s when he started out producing for a band called Prism.  Prism had moderate success in Canada, but not much internationally.  In 1980, Bruce started production on the debut album for another Canadian band called Loverboy.  Loverboy opened the doors for Bruce with the bands international appeal. He produced 4 albums with Loverboy in the 80’s.  They were as follows:

  • Loverboy – (2x Platinum)
  • Get Lucky – (4x Platinum)
  • Keep It Up – (2x Platinum)
  • Wildside – (Gold)
