Question
My mom's favorite song is Live Again by the miami sound machine. May I ask as to where I could possibly secure a copy of that song as my Christmas gift for her. I tried record bars and that store in kamuning where they transfer songs from vinyl to cd. Apparently, the album is quite rare. Is it be possible to ask a radio station to make a copy for me? Thanks in advance.

Answer
Dear Bobby,

The album RENACER/LIVE AGAIN from 1977 which contains the song LIVE AGAIN by MIAMI SOUND MACHINE is really a rare commodity with only a handful probably owning it in the Philippines. I don't think radio stations will accomodate a request for a copy of the song unless you know someone inside. Luckily, I have an mp3 copy of the song, not a very clear one as it was lifted from a vinyl record. All you have to do is e-mail me at bong_santos_jbl11@yahoo.com and I'll send you a copy. Just don't forget to mention the name of the song you are requesting.

Maraming salamat po!!
