The Joker Is Wild (album)

The Joker is Wild was the second album released by Alex Harvey after the demise of The Soul Band. The album was released in 1972. Some time after 1972 the album The Joker Is Wild was reissued and repackaged, the album song listings stayed the same, but the album was credited as being made by "The Sensational Alex Harvey Band" even though this band did not exist at the time, and the title was changed to This Is.

Background

The album was recorded at Regent Sound Studio, London in early 1972. These songs are unfinished demos only, recorded for a Spanish singer named Tony Caldeira (who wrote "The Joker Is Wild" and "Silhouette and Shadow"). Alex was teaching Tony vocal delivery and phrasing. Alex received a cheque for the session which subsequently bounced. The producer, Paul Murphy, sold the tapes to Metronome Records in Germany and they issued the LP as The Joker Is Wild in 1972. This Is SAHB is a low budget reissue of "Joker" intended to cash in on SAHB's success (even though Zal, Chris, Ted and Hugh weren't involved with the recordings). The photo of SAHB on the sleeve features keyboard player John Martin on the far left.

History

Prior to the current Show! Music Core, numerous music programs with similar content were aired on MBC. Below is the list in chronological order.

Live Music Camp was cancelled due to a broadcast accident of revealing genitalia.

After a brief hiatus, Show! Music Core began airing on October 29, 2005 with charts similar to its predecessors. However, the charts were removed on January 7, 2006 and continues to air without any charts or awards. Even without the weekly chart award, the show was known for its special production and stages.

From 2007 to 2008, a Mobile Ranking segment was used to rank the popularity of songs downloaded to mobile phones and from online music sites.

This Is Mine

"This Is Mine" is synthpop trio Heaven 17's second and last single of 1984 from the album How Men Are. It was written by all three members. The single was released in late 1984 and peaked at #23 in the UK, spending 7 weeks on the chart. This would be the last top 30 single for the band until 1992 which saw the release of "Temptation (Brothers In Rhythm Remix)"

A promotional video was created for the single that featured the band robbing a bank, and Martyn Ware leaving. In the end, Gregory and Ware crack open the safe and escape in a van driven by Marsh. The video ends with Gregory in a helicopter throwing money into a river.

Allmusic stated "Sunset Now", "Flamedown" and the brilliant "This Is Mine" are just a few of the reasons for this album's greatness." The track is also recommended by allmusic.
