RUNNER (USA) - Runner MiniLP (1984)

RUNNER (USA) - Runner MiniLP (1984) front
Don't confuse this RUNNER with the UK band under the same name. These guys are from USA, and their sound is totally Radio oriented AOR.
This self-released private miniLP features 4 wonderful tracks with strong influences from those years' popes: LOVERBOY, SURVIVOR, PREVIEW, etc. There's lovely harmonies, classy keyboards and melodic vocals.
The four songs are easy on the ears, with some pomp hints here and there, featuring the mandatory ballad as closing track.

"Runner" is a short but catchy first half of the '80s Radio-AOR little record, a vinyl-rip quickly cleaned and de-clicked by me.
A collectors item as well, so a recommended addition to your vaults.


1 - Here It Comes Again
2 - Hold On To Lose
3 - Maybe I'm Right
4 - It Should Be Easier

RUNNER (USA) - Runner (1984)


Don't confuse this RUNNER with the UK band under the same moniker.
These guys are from USA, and their sound is totally radio oriented AOR.

Self released indie miniLP, with strong influences of those years' popes; LOVERBOY, SURVIVOR, PREVIEW, etc.
Lovable harmonies, classy keyboards and good vocals.
The four songs are easy on the ears, with some pomp hints here and there, featuring the mandatory ballad as closing track.

A little but catchy first half 80's collector's item, a recommended addition to your vaults, AOR freaks.
This is not the crappy version floating the web, fully of clicks and disengaged tracks.
Here I offer a good rip cleaned and declicked by myself for your listening pleasure.


1 - Here it comes again
2 - Hold on to lose
