Hey Paul. Just sent that donation that i had promised awhile back : )

I was wondering if i could request for you to rip and upload the 12″ Promo for CeCe Peniston’s “Searchin'”…Some of the remixes which were never released on CD.

If you don’t have the vinyl, you can get it here: http://www.discogs.com/Ce-Ce-Peniston-Searchin/release/1423441

I’d be willing to pay for you get it, the vinyl, if need be.

They’re all Falco mad in Vienna. I went there once, and there was lifesize cutouts of him in the record shops. He’d been dead 10 years.

Thank you very much for these Falco tunes.
I always liked his songs and even now, over 50 yrs old, I still play them 😀

Yep, it’s pretty awesome! The downloads are smooth. I’m still stuck in the 00’s with my 16-bit FLAC though 😀

Thanks for more Falco!
