Although its rarer than most of Kennaways releases - 'Jane Kennaway & Strange Behaviour' was her group, it does appear from time to time on ebay etc. I do have a reasonably comprehensive collection which im currently updating so will send you a copy when I have - it may highlight records you possibly havent heard of . There are however many items I havent got eg Laserdisc & DVD items - because ive nothing to play them on and with our first baby due in 3 weeks cashflow has now almost stopped - with the wife now not working & im currently on half pay due to illness - but I dont think im missing anything major - though please let me know if anyone does spot anything. I have however recently added further Bruce Woolley related items to my collection with tracks written/co-written/vocals/performed on etc 2 x 7" by Jody Watley - where the boys are / & girls night out 1 x 7" by John Farnham - 2 strong hearts - written by Bruce Betsy Cook LP - 2 tracks written by , produced by & backing vocals by Bruce. & I finally obtained a very elusive single by Bruce Woolley called 'Killer On The Dance Floor' performed under a group name of 'The Killers'. Took me a long time & lots of money to obtain but well worth it - it was also covered by a group called 'The Speedos' & that version is --- dare I say it - even better . - ---- Anyway Ill forward my collection list soon ---unless the baby makes an early appearance.
