Paradise (?) Sounds like Aussie 80's Hard Rock
« on: Fri 20 Mar 2009 05:14:03 »
I recently found this in my travels - it was part of an Aussie compilation with some rocking tracks on it

So I assume it is Australian.  Sounds like an 80's hard rock track.

I'd be pleased if you can help me out.

Lead singer has a voice not unlike Joey Tempest from Europe

The chorus goes, "whoa I've found my own little paradise - whoa now I'm here to stay"

Not much I know so I've posted this to assist

I'm sure you'd have most of the stuff off it Skids.   Standard Oz rock fare.

I've found the answer to my own question (I think)

As best I can tell the band is called Ice Tiger.   The song is from a 1991 album called Love N Crime.  It was re-issued in 2004.

There's a bit of info about it on Heavy Harmonies.

Although I can't verify with a sound grab from somewhere like Allmusic etc I am willing to bet my wife on it   ;D

Yep it's definitely Ice Tiger, although at first listen I think it would be hard to pick that track as an OZ band (and especially a local Perth band!).

I have the album "Love 'n' Crime", but only @128. I've not seen it floating around at a better bit-rate.

Cheers
