602.0. "MAX Q" by AYOV10::CAIRNS (This is ABSOLUTE REALITY !!) Mon Feb 12 1990 14:23

    Did anybody out there happen to see the "Chart Show" on Saturday
    morning - and in particular a song my 'MAX Q' called SOMETIMES.
    
    It turns out to be a project by Michael Hutchence , minus Kylie
    Whatsherface + someguy called Max Q .
    
    It was the first time I had heard of the track or the band but it
    was just a brilliant mixture of House and raunchy Rock'n'Roll.
    
    Anybody out there happend to catch it also ? !
    
    If not - set the video for the repeat showing of the Chart Show
    sometime this week !!

602.1Now hear this, now hear this...SHAPES::BROWNMEee, it's grand up northMon Feb 12 1990 15:5616
    I saw it!  I got up early enough (for once - 11.30 is early for me at
    weekends)
    
    I've heard the track `Sometimes' a few times and haven't thought much
    of it, but now it's beginning to grow on me - just like fungus.
    
    Record Mirror said the LP was crap and gave it 2 out of 5.
    
    I have the first single, `The Way Of The World', and think it's great. 
    All the `rags' said what a crime it would be if the single flopped and
    I agree, it really is good.  It is in the same mold as the `Sometimes'
    being a crossover House/Rock sort of thing.  The b-side is crap though
    - all drums and a bass guitar.

    MAX Q is a band that michael hutchence is working with while INXS 
    is on 'hold'.
    It's primarily a 'project' with a guy called Ollie Olsen, who
    wrote the song. He's the other member.

    I heard the Max Q single "Sometimes" about two months ago whilst I was
    in  Australia and thought it was one of the best things Micheal
    Hutchence has done.  Apparantly the 12 inch remix is brilliant and one
    to be heard loud.  
    
    With regard to the previous release "way of the world", the B side
    "Zero to Zero" is a really good dance instrumental that you should
    check out.
