    What's the name of the band of this 80's song?

    I think if I could remember it right it's called "Somewhere in the world, there's a cowboy smiling." It was released in the mid-80s or late 80's, I have been looking around for this band but always end-up, not even getting their name.

          Blue Zoo - "Somewhere In The World There's A Cowboy Smiling"/"Don't Walk Away" (7 inch single) magnet 1981
          http://www.discogs.com/release/139165

          The record appears to be quite hard to find and it doesn't look like anyone out there on the 'net has a 30 second legal sample to listen to. (I ran across a post from June 2000 where a fellow was lamenting that he couldn't find "Somewhere In The World There's A Cowboy Smiling" on Napster either -- it must be really rare.)

              WinMX came up with one song at 128kb "Cry Boy Cry" and that was about it, but I think it was the only song that I like from them since they probably did 1 or 2 albums.

              Even our local radio station that plays 80's song during the weekends(98.7) don't have any clue about this band although I would love to hear that song.And the place where I buy alot of 80's music in Melrose Ave does not carry the product anymore.

                For those who didn't know, (I didn't until this past week) Creed officially split up, with the lead singer Scott going own way to pursue other things. Well, the rest of the group grabbed a new lead singer, and just put out a new album with the band name "Alter Bridge"....

                If rock and roll from the eighties was your particular era, you will probably already have seen Rock Of Ages, so I won't bother with the story line. The 40s/50s was more my era, but I had three sons who were so into rock and roll ( and the 80s was their era ) that I sometimes ran from the house screaming....

                Though I've had the deluxe box set for several years, it wasn't until a few months ago that I finally got to it in the way I'd hoped when I purchased it. We've made it a (mostly) weekly family activity to watch 2-3 episodes of The Wonder Years (me, my wife--who'd never watched it originally, my 17 year...

                Do you want to go to the edge of music?
                by bigburner
                Then listen to my son's band's latest song "Gore 2 da FLOOR", which he recorded and mixed in his bedroom last Saturday.

                It is amazing what can be done with software these days. A few years ago this recording would have required racks and racks of equipment.

                Another post here in the Guide reminded me of a CD I have that I've enjoyed for years, but most people would never have heard of. I went to a big concert at the famous Red Rocks ampitheater in Denver, Colorado the summer of 1992 (right before my senior year of high school) that had about 6 excellent...
