I don’t know this artist, but I once saw Debby Harry naked once, online. That by itself seems like a good reason to download your fine rip 🙂
The lovely cover art was the hook for me. Thanks, Paul

hi paul,

saw the name deborah harry, and automatically
had to check it out.

i love obscure releases, and side projects like this.
gives the artists more chances to take chances.

yes, this had shades of erasure in it.
thanks again for more great selections.

Wasn’t familiar with Paul Zone before but I super dig the Erasure-y vibes here. That vocal jam in the last 50 secs of the House Mix is bonkers fun – I can’t tell if it’s Debbie Harry or one of the men in falsetto. LOVE the cover. Thanks for introducing this to me.

You positively rock Paul!! What a cool looking post!! I haven’t played it, but based on the cover alone, this is just awesome. Wow, Debbie Harry on vocals along with Paul Zone, from Man 2 Man, is truly something special. Thanks Paul for this one. You really think outside of the “coffin” when it comes to Halloween!! Absolutely “spook-tacular!!!”

P.S. And being from New Jersey, isn’t that a picture of Tilley from the Asbury Park funhouse amusements? Just magic!!!!!!!!
