This is one of many places where you can take refuge from the bland music fare out there today, and take a mind-trip back to the 80s era - where real music and innovation was made!

MODELS - fashion pix from 1982
These fashion shots of MODELS were printed in an fashion/music crossover magazine called Stiletto. This issue was released in 1983. The article was made known to me by John Morrison (thanks mate!). Interestingly, the founder of Stiletto is Jonathan Morris (https://www.facebook.com/jonathan.morris.735) - weird coincidence!
Here's the cover of the magazine -
The newspaper article itself was calls MODELS MODEL. Enjoy! :)
Nice hat, James!

John Farnham - Whispering Jack curio
An amazing piece of 80s cd history is shown below.
It's a copy of the John Farnham "Whispering Jack" cd. But this one is pressed
in 24-carat Kalgoorlie gold!
I'm not sure what price it retailed for back in 1987, but forums list it as seen for $100. There is currently one on ebay for $250, but I doubt it will sell at that price.
It seems that this limited cd was promoted heavily by Qantas, as there is evidence it was up for sale on the international flights to US/UK back in the day, as late as 1988.
Here's some photos I've gathered from the web. I'd love to own one, but they are too expensive.
