It's taken some time, but I've finally managed to load more songs from my Technics KN7000 keyboard. I don't have this keyboard anymore. Had to sell it to buy my Tyros, but the songs still give me great memories of playing that fantastic keyboard. Pity Technics don't make keyboards anymore.
Amongst this batch of songs, you'll find a cover of ABBA's "The Day Before You Came" as well as two songs by Shakatak called "Once Upon A Time" and "Breakin' Away". Breakin' Away was sadly a song Shakatak never released on any of their albums. It was a "bonus" track on the Japan vinyl of "Down on the Street" - so it's scarce as hens teeth. I heard the song on the internet many years ago, downloaded it and lost it thereafter. So this version I've done is mostly what I can remember of what the song actually sounded like. But the real version is much better and a true work of art. Pity they can't dig it out their archives and get Polydor to release it on their next compilation CD.
Enjoy the songs and you can download them if you wish too ;)
