Leo Leo & Magical Dream

Post by dmp »

Does anybody know what became of "Raagman" who did Leo Leo, and the girl who sang on "Magical Dream" off the 90 album?

Also, does anybody else have the In Yer Face Japanese import, the sleeve notes say that there is 2 different mixes of Leo Leo but they're both exactly the same. What's that all about?

I always thought that Mandy (Andy's missus right?) was the vocal on Magical Dream.

The girl on magical dream was vanessa (fresh vanesse) and not mandy doyle
(andys mrs)there may be some confusion as mandy wigby sang it at heaton park,(which should nt be confused with an ex of mine called Mandi James
ok got your mandys sorted.
Leo leo here is an instrumental and a vocal version (they are the only two)
once performed on Granada (bob greaves xmas party) v bizzare tv.
Raagman (simon ) I bump onto occasionaly in MCR,he was one of Tunes s dancers (there were two main ones in his videos and stage show.
Fresh vanese was an origenal member of the Hitsquad Mcr live thing and was about 14 at the time of recording Magical Dream

Fascinating stuff.

Regarding the Japanese CD: Presumably the Japanese thought they would include the single version as well as the album version (in addition to the instrumental), not knowing maybe that they were the same. From the text discography:

CD5: 1991 JP (ZTT / WEA; WMC5-361)
3:53 In Yer Face (edit)
5:03 In Yer Face (in yer face mix)
4:17 In Yer Face (facially yours Mix)
4:01 Leo Leo (featuring Raagman)
4:04 Leo Leo (poonchanting instrumental) [mislabeled "Doonchanting Instr.]
4:01 Leo Leo (featuring Raagman)
[Both "raagman" mixes are identical]
