IDLE EYES - "TOKYO ROSE"
Topic: New Tab Postings

Drawn from their 1985 self-titled debut album, the single "Tokyo Rose" gave Vancouver band Idle Eyes a Top 20 hit in Canada (#16 on the RPM chart). The success of the single brought the band several accolades. Most prominently, it earned them the Juno award for Most Promising New Group in 1985, in a nominee field that included The Arrows, Images In Vogue, The Box and Rational Youth. Idle Eyes also swept the major awards at the 1986 West Coast Music Awards, taking Group Of the Year, best album, best song ("Tokyo Rose"), and best songwriter (Tad Campbell).

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
Topic: Riff-In-A-Jiff

The TPOH song "Killed By Love" was originally released as a non-LP single and video in 1987, the follow-up to the Toronto band's first indie single "I'm An Adult Now". Both songs were re-recorded for the band's platinum selling (in Canada) 1988 debut album Love Junk. Due to the re-record, there are two slightly different versions of the Intro to "Killed By Love". Both are tabbed here.

CHESTER - "MAKE MY LIFE A LITTLE BIT BRIGHTER"
Topic: New Tab Postings

The single "Make My Life A Little Bit Brighter" gave the band Chester a Top 10 hit in Canada in the summer of 1973. Together for only seven months when the single hit, the band released a few other singles, but ultimately didn't remain together long enough to record a full length LP. Members of the band went on to work with such artists as Chris DeBurgh and Ken Tobias. In 2008, a compilation CD entitled Chester, Mancel, Argue Collection was released. The disc brought together singles by Chester, as well as solo career tracks from some of the band members.
