Yet another brilliant album by Midnight Star. This particular one, is their 1986 original Solar release, whic does not contain the extra tracks, just as I like. The title Album track, headlines, also has a bonus instrumental version. This is by far my favourite album by Midnight Star, and the only one that contains the versions of 'Midas touch' and 'Engine N. ' that I love; not too long & not too short; just right.

Got this one on cd a couple of weeks back, the 'Sequel records' one. Still great album. Only track 11 is not 'Engine no. 9' 12'' mix but the song 'Operator' from the 'Planetary invasion' album. And there's a track 12 'Curious', also from the 'Planetary invasion' album. Is that the case with the whole batch of cd's....if anyone knows?

This album proves that rare groove doesnt always have to cost a ton

Sure you can! On Headlines for example! At approx. halfway through the song, during the chorus.
