Hey guys! This is kind of a random thread because I'm not done compiling all of what I want to yet because I'm still scouring the 'Net looking for music clips that can be listened to for free.

I don't think I've ever mentioned it on this forum before, but I'm a huge New Edition fan. I have been ever since I was a young child. My parents were New Edition fans and listened to them in their late 20's and early 30's when they gave birth to me and raised me when I was little. I was born in 1986 but I have impeccable long-term memory and I actually have several vivid memories from my very early childhood as far back as 1988. I can still somewhat remember sporting a high top fade back then. I'm a big 70's, 80's and 90's baby (even though I wasn't born until the 80's) and New Edition's "N.E. Heartbreak" is one of the first songs I remember ever hearing (along with Guy's "Teddy's Jam"). I've read about some of the early career of Johnny Gill, one of my favorite singers from New Edition, but I've never heard his pre-1985 songs until recently. I found a site where you can hear 30 second clips of songs from his debut self-titled 1983 album (which ironically came out the year New Edition released their first big hit "Candy Girl"). Here it is for now (Windows Media Player plays it best on my computer):

I actually like the songs and I disagree with the critic's assessment on the page for the most part. I'm still searching for whole clips of the songs, but here's the samples right for right now if anyone's interested in listening.
