After the succesful soundtrack compilation, now VOL.2, full of rarities, more 'rock oriented' than strictly AOR, but with the soundtrack-aorish spirit intact.
First track is the wonderful JOHN FARNHAM song, only featured in the movie "Savage Streets", awesome AOR.
CHRIS THOMPSON (wonderful voice) rocks with "It's Not Over" (also recorded later by Starship).
DWIGHT TILLEY's song from the rare "Heavenly Bodies" is a killer.
Both JOURNEY tracks are only available in their respective soundtracks (pretty rare ones).
"Armour Of God", sung by action-star JACKIE CHAN in cantonese language, its a very classy typical AOR-movie-song, pumpin' and thrillin' rythm, and rare as cold hell.
STUBBLEFIELD & HALL performs the main theme of "Best Of The Best", another fantastic tune and rarity.
Cult film "The Warriors" has an excellent DESMOND CHILD song, a very hard to find soundtrack.
GLENN JONES' "Youngblood" track is a delicious classic sound AOR, after repeated listens, it grabs in your head forever.
AUTOGRAPH make 'You Can't Hide From The Beast Inside' exclusively for this terror movie (Fright Night), you can't find this track in any band's album, a shame, because its a monster, and maybe the best song they ever recorded.
"National Lampoon's European Vacation" track "Back In America", by the short-lived band NETWORK (ex members of LE ROUX), features the lead vocals of Terry Brock (later in STRANGEWAYS).
Here you have the very rare original full version running 3:37 min.
A bunch of cool songs, very rare most of them, more than 70 min. of music, vbr , artwork, enjoy...

Ace! This is another excellent compilation thank you very very much. More please...
Excellent compilation with great AOR/Melodic Rock songs! I think the first track "Nothing's Gonna Stand In Our Way" is from SPECTRE GENERAL (from the movie Transformers 1986)?, SPECTRE GENERAL is the same band as KICK AXE !.
Hope there comes a Vol. 3.....
Many thanks !!!

Awesome...get it while it´s hot...a real nice and "hard-to-get" album...smashing and THANX in a bunch...fancytommy
I never seem to able to complete the download of this one; sometimes I get a file with 2 songs, 13, songs, 14 songs, 16 songs but never the complete file including the artwork. This is such a nice series of rare tracks, too bad I can't get them all.
Host problems...
Mirror added, new host.
Excellent!! The new mirror works like a charm, thanks for this very nice series of rare AOR tracks. I hope to see volumes 6 through 10 or maybe even up to 20....

Very Cool, Took me ages to find the mike reno song. Had some trouble with getting all tracks using origional link but mirror worked great.
thanks

Great compi! Thx cblue!
Amazing compilation, it's a nice surprise to see the Jackie Chan song inclided (however I've been familiarized with the song for years) for americans and westerns listeners. Great job, thanks a lot for sharing
P.S.
The Jackie Chan song it's called in english 'High Up On High', the cantonese translation is called 'The Flight of the Dragon'.

@ bastardsword:
Glad you like it.
You're right. The translation of Jackie's song is 'Flight of the Dragon'.
I have left the english movie title as 'song name' to make it easy to the people identify the track.
Thanks for your comment
Please fix link!
Thnx !
