I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
"THE RECORDS" - a British powerpop/rock band, were formed in 1978 by guitarist/singer-songwriter - JOHN WICKS - and drummer/lyricist - WILL BIRCH.
They recorded three albums for Virgin, and played with such acts as - THE CARS, ROBERT PALMER, ELVIS COSTELLO, THE JAM and JOE JACKSON. Their first album - "SHADES IN BED"/"THE RECORDS" - released in 1979 - produced by - MUTT LANGE and TIM FRIESE-GREENE - went top 40 in the US., spawning the classic hit single - STARRY EYES. Several singles followed, including 1980's - HEARTS IN HER EYES - which was also covered and released on Sire Records by THE SEARCHERS. These days JOHN WICKS is a solo artist, who writes, records, produces and plays live shows with a new "RECORDS" line-up, billed as - "JOHN WICKS AND THE RECORDS".
A new CD entitled - "ROTATE" - was released on the Kool Kat record label in April 2007.

Thanks for the friendship..How's life treating you?.. Hope you enjoy the music and message behind it. My mission in life is to fight Human Trafficking. understanding the individual pain of others is sometimes to painful for an other individual to touch and that is frightening ...what i mean is that someone whose life is not traumatized and brutalized as a regular sequence of every day events unconsciously seeks the camouflage and shelter of apathy and banality from the reality of such devastating anguish and terror ...but the spirit of young people who are used as sex slaves in the systematized global industry of human trafficking is now reaching out to the human fellowship in hope and desperation and through technology ...it is scary when humanity turns a blind eye to this horror ...its like ignoring genocide whilst it is happening ...what i am asking is that if you hear the cry of these young people who are existing in an environment of torture and brutality each and every day that you then please do not turn away from them ...please reach deeply into your heart and soul and please in 2009 join a movement or become a part of an event that challenges modern slavery in the 21st century ...
Thanks for being our friend!
