I bought the band's 1988 self-titled "ALL ABOUT EVE" album both on Vinyl and CD formats just to remember the band and of course both formats have different tracklists.YUP!! The Vinyl Record contains only 11 Tracks while the CD includes 3 bonus tracks giving you a total of 14 songs. It's the only album that every PINOY NEW WAVE collectors should have in their music collection among the band's releases. Aside from "FLOWERS IN OUR HAIR", three more songs in the album got a little airplay in POWER 105 back in 1989-1990 and these were "WILD HEARTED WOMAN", "SHELTER FROM THE RAIN", and "EVERY ANGEL" which I bought the 12 inch Vinyl shown in the photo along side their self-titled album. Well, these three songs didn't really became popular back then comparing with "FLOWERS IN OUR HAIR" that made massive radio airplay back in the 80s and of course it also invaded the playlists of other Legendary MANILA NEW WAVE Radio shows in the 90s and the millennium like WAVE 180, CLUB RETRO, and LITEWAVE. Definitely, this album is worth having on your collection so just in case you wanna have a copy of it then I uploaded my CD that contains 3 bonus tracks for your listening pleasure. What kind of music ALL ABOUT EVE presents to us? Hmmmp!! I consider the blending of Gothic Rock with Traditional Folk infusion in their music.

Well, if you ask the common Filipino people(MASANG PINOY) nowadays regarding "All About Eve", then they will mention to you the KOREAN TELENOBELA which was dubbed in Pilipino entitled "All About Eve" that was shown on GMA7 back in 2008. That's not all!! They will also mention the Pilipino Version of this Telenobela starred by Filipina Actresses IZA CALZADO and SUNSHINE DIZON last year 2009 also shown on GMA7. Both versions made it big in Philippine Television. Wheeew!! How did this topic got into this blogpost? Ha Ha Ha!! Do you wanna include Sandra Bullock's "All About Steve" movie? Naaah!! It's not about Steve, It's about Eve!!
I hope you enjoyed another trip down memory lane with my blogpost regarding "ALL ABOUT EVE". It's not about Adam and Eve's explosion on New Year's Eve okay. He He He!! It's about a band that didn't quite made it big in the Pop Charts but will still be remembered with the kind of music they made.
I'll leave you with the controversial TOP OF THE POPS appearance of "ALL ABOUT EVE" performing "MARTHA'S HARBOUR" uploaded by "aliveinsound" on You Tube. As you will notice, Julianne Regan and Tim Bricheno can't hear the backing track for the first half of the song and so they were caught live on camera just sitting on the stage while the track was already playing to TV viewers. That's all folks!! THANKS for dropping by again!!
