Question
...many years ago in the 80's somebody copied the J. Geils Band song "Flame Thrower", lots of bass line through out the song, I dont remember anyone singing, it was all music as though it were for adance track/club? Who did this song? What CD offers that song?
Dear Ray,
I don't know if this is the one you're talking about. Just the same, it's the only song I know that sampled FLAMETHROWER by J. GEILS BAND. Check out THE FLAMETROWER RAP by FELIX & JARVIS. It was recorded back in 1982, just a year after the original version was released through the album FREEZE FRAME.
Maraming salamat po!!

| Comment | ...this dude knows his music. I had a tune in my head for over 20 years and he named the band on the first try. Bong should be known world wide for the vast mental catalog in his brilliant mind! Thank you Bong, you are The Man! This site is real and no joke, I go what i wanted! | ||

Expertise
I can answer just about everything from the 80`s, rock, pop, trivias, artist infos, Billboard chart positions, albums, etc. But songs that became hit in the Philippines and OPM songs are my expertise. I grew on 80`s music and still listening to 80`s music as it is the best era in music history for me. My friends call me the walking encyclopedia of 80`s music. I got books & collections of CDs, all from the 80`s.
Experience
Let's just say music is my life and my source is a lifetime of knowledge about 80's music and then some.
