anything that sounds good!music is about feelings and moods,whether it's an electric guitar...or a violin!
Hi everyone.my name is Babis Kaisas.Zandem is something i had inside of me ever since i got hooked in music i guess,at the age of 14.these are songs that have been on my mind since my teenage years.the name changed from time to time but,the idea behind it was the same...to have a band coming out from Greece that could rock the world.i bought my 1st electric guitar in 2003 at the age of 25.i used to fancy myself as a singer in my teenage years,but i guess my insecurities and luck of motivation never got me into a band.i did take a couple of years classical guitar learning at a local music school,at the age of of 12 must have been...but it was irrelevant to the style of music i wanted to be dealing with later on.i started recording stuff on my own,from my place in 2005.a cover here,and a song of mine there...in 2006 after having some communication with the ex Shy drummer Alan Kelly,we've ended up working on my ideas "together".it was a dream come true for me to be working with someone i admired for his work with 1 of my fave bands.however as everything in life has an ending,or so we are told to believe,so did that collaboration.by September '07 our musical differences,and personal disagreements led to a break up.by that time i had put down in recordings the basic ideas(meaning guitar riffs,and lyrics)for not less than 25 songs,which ever since i try to work on by myself,believing in what my ex band mate used to say "since u can put your ideas down on your own,and do things exactly the way u wan to,why bring someone else in to mess it up...".hard to achieve,since i'm doing all instruments,vocals,production,ever since on my own,but the outcome is closer to my original idea,than if it had been worked along someone else,with a different musical aproach.by the way,Alan did bring in the ex Karrallon basist Dave Deeley for the lead singer's place back in late '06,but that line up didn't last long due to luck of communication between myself and him.some people wonder what does this strange word mean "zandem"...it's a phrase i took from my grandma,as i was growing up she used to call me "zande'm!",meaning "my crazy 1!",cause i obviously wasn't doing things her way...so i took the phrase and made it 1 word "zandem",with the tone originally being at the letter "e"...let me just say that this project is just a part time thing for me,i never made a living out of it(and probably never will),so be patient with me as i continue working on my ideas in my free time,till they get to a desired level...this is just my musical side,into a journey through emotions & thoughts...by the way i usually write by personal experiences,therefore these songs mainly express my point of view,and not nessecerilly somebody else's...

We had a great gig thanks they were a great audience really listened to our original music & jumped around to our covers also sold some of our cd's. Here's to the next one in Hull how's life treating you bye for now....
Alright man! Thanks for the comment. Yeah I changed the appearance... I dunno not too bothered with the long hair. It's bit similar to Rudolf Schenker look perhaps? I think I'll keep this one for while. How's things with you? I did sculpting yesterday. Curving wood. The Japanese teacher is a master at it so it's cool for me.
I guess that the whole "ego bust" concept of the album "Turbo" was made on purpose. It was commercial, they used synths and even outlook of the boys was like that, all hairy and dreesed up and they choose Bon Jovi opening for them at that tour. Hair metal lovers as new fans were their target in that case I think.
I know many diehard Priest fans hating this album by a true passion. I like that album, there are some great songs on it "Out In The Cold" is one of the best songs they did IMO, the producers of a movie Top Gun wanted a song Reckless in a movie, but Priest didn't allow that. They dare to do different things, they not walk the safe path.
Yes, you look pretty much like that Winger guy, but I like you more, you're more manly rough. About that song I got to confused things, but I don't even mind so...
Hail and cheers from PERSIA, Thanks very much,but there are too many Rock and Metal bands in this country!You could find some of them in our top friends.
Samantha Fox - Just One Night (1991) - "Spirit Of America"
Glenn Tipton and Samantha Fox in the studio 1991
"...Glenn did put some guitar down on one track for Samantha Fox - he did it as a favor as he knew her when she was living in Spain and she was a bit of a heavy metal fan! He has done this sort of thing for various different bands he knows." - Jayne Andrews, Management Co-ordinator for Judas Priest, 2003
She was cute, that's the most important thing, haha, I guess. I like two songs of hers: This one you sent and "Touch me!" I must check it out which song she did with Glenn, I read not so much time ago about that.
She was also a girlfriend of Paul stanley from Kiss for a while, but then she revealed she's gay. She lives with the woman now (her manager).
She fought a serious illness for the last 2 years her love of life was so great but recently her body was too weak to fight we have a lot of great memories wishing you a fun weekend we have a gig tonight bye for now.....
