4 Rare 80s Albums [Part 1] New Wave [Re-seed] torrent

A Year ago today I started posting these series that have now reached 53 volumes. I am going to re-seed them gradually because of many requests I am getting for a re-post. Apparently older torrents have either no or few seeders. Also since my intention is to promote these long forgotten bands, I am hoping there will be new downloaders as well.

Blue Zoo was formed in 1980, Band members were: Mike Ansell on bass, Matthew Flowers (formerly of new wave band "Sore Throat") on keyboards, Pete Lancaster on trumpet, Andy O on vocals, Tim Parry on guitar and Mickey Sparrow on drums.

Trees - Sleep Convention [1983]

Fronted by Dane Conover, Trees was a New Wave one-man band from San Diego, California. Trees only released one album on MCA and produced by Earle Mankey in 1982 called Sleep Convention which was a critical success but a commercial failure due to MCA's problems at the time. And also created 5 Low Budget Music Videos. Reviews included comments like " Pop Music of the Future, and "is a stunning debut which shows remarkable originality and talent. That this record died the commercial death is not just incomprehensible, it's criminal." Dane Conover ended Trees after one album to move on to other projects.
