I said in a earlier post that I would post some Rex here. So, here it is. Had some problems uploading his first album 'Rex', but here's his second, from 1977. Rex Smith, the brother of Michael Lee Smith, singer in Starz. 'Where Do We Go From Here?'. And from there he released some more albums, and got a carrere in movies & TV. Guess it was a wise move. Not bad music at all, but no classics either. And a pretty similar voice as his older brother when the songs rocks a bit.

Thanks for putting up an album by this underrated outfit. It would have been interesting to see what Smith had done if he'd stuck with the hard rock...
Thanks for this. Please try to upload the first REX album again. I recall that was a much stronger album
That is great! Now I have to figure out how to unpack it for a Mac computer.
Is this the Rex Smith making jazz and love songs, this is great!
Thanks!
Hi all! Yes, cool stuff. I'll try to dig up his first, I agree that it was a bit better.
Been down for a while now, but got a new pc now, and gonna get a bunch of vinyls ripped eventually. Some obscure stuff there too.
This is great "of the time" hair-band rock stuff. Kind of funny to think of where he's gone from there.
Oh, would love the first album. I do have it on vinyl but have not had a chance to listen to it yet. Just bought it last week and need to pick up a pre-amp so we can get the turntable going again. Thanks for the great files!
Yes, please try to upload the first REX album, that would be so great! Thanks!
I'll add my request for that first Rex too. I actually saw them in concert with mahogany rush
Thanks great and yes please up the first.
Love the Rex lp's from back in the
day. It's a shame he didn't stick
with rock instead of turning into
a softy. Thanks for going to the
trouble of riping the vinyl. :)
Has anyone else had problems with
the track "You're Never Too Old
To Rock & Roll"??? There seems to
be a glitch at the 3:36 mark.
Yep, I also have that same little glitch towards the end of "You're Never Too Old To Rock & Roll" Hopefully, alocacoc will be able to fix it. I sure do hope that you are still going to add some more great stuff to this site, alocacoc, 'cause you are doing a great job.
