    Long Way to Heaven is a good album.
                              
    For any Reading (UK) noters out there - Brian Pithers (Radio 210
    dj) uses "Rock You" as an intro jingle on his show.
         
    One of the many useless pieces of info one picks up on the walk
    of life.

364.6MILKWY::SLABOUNTYThey call me Dr. LoveSat Jun 02 1990 17:149
    
    	I just got "Wild in the Streets" the other night on CD for
    	$10 (I figured "What the heck!!), and it kind of bores me
    	after one listen.
    
    	I'll give it a chance, but so far I'm not impressed.

    Has anyone checked out these guys' latest?  I can't remember the 
    title.  Any reviews, yet?  Do these guys sing "Don't Be Afraid of
    the Dark"?  If no, who does?
    
    "Long Way To Heaven" ROOOOLZ!  "House on Fire" is a killer!

I know that Robert Cray does this song. But as I don't known Helix at all, it
may not be the one you were mentioning.

    	That's Y&T's new song ... "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark".
    
    	Helix does have a [fairly?] new album out ... I saw it at
    	Strawberries last night.  "Back for another Shot" or some-
    	thing like that.

364.12I met these guys in a parking lot in 1983 with Motorhead.ENOVAX::DIBIASICYBERNETIC HEARTBEATThu Aug 02 1990 02:297
    
    Ain't no rest for the wicked. Ain't no rest for a rock and roll band.

364.13I feel like a new man! *)CSC32::H_SOI'm reliable: Made in KoreaThu Aug 02 1990 05:1713
    
    I just remembered, the guitar intro on "Bangin' Off the Bricks"
    rocks, too, as well as "Don't Touch The Merchandise".  
    
    I think the lead singer has a killer voice.  Man, it's time to 
    wear that tape out all over again.  Has anyone EVER found "Long 
    Way To Heaven" on CD?  Are ANY of their older stuff on CD except
    for "Wild In The Streets"?  I can't even find "Long Way To Heaven"
    on new tapes' rack!  God forbid going to vinyl!  8*)
    
    So-Hong  Hey, Motorbreath, you like this one better?  I hope you do
    cause this is the name I was born with.  *)

    Wow, I was listening to oldies this morning and I hear the Origional
    version of Gimme Gimme Good Loving. I didn't even know it was a cover.
364.15Memoriez!DPDMAI::THRELFALLSouthern Fried Freak o' NatureFri Dec 20 1991 14:463
    Yeah, Helix used to be one of my favorite bands!
    
    
364.16CSC32::J_HERNANDEZHippos-HippiesWithLowerVoicesFri Dec 20 1991 14:483
    Mine two. I was totally shocked kinda like the way you get shocked when
    someone walks up to you and spits a doorknob at you. Caught me totally
    off guard. 
364.17Boo, HissCAVLRY::BUCKRexx Rack Rock n Roll!Fri Dec 20 1991 15:152
    I loved Helix, and weeas bummed when they were bumped off a 5-band show
    in Mass due to scheduling conflicts!
364.18DPDMAI::THRELFALLSouthern Fried Freak o' NatureFri Dec 20 1991 16:233
    What was that song they had...something about a rocket??
    
    Jesse, you've flipped!
