We all know about Kylie, Jason, Natalie etc.

But what about the "others" who have been criminally overlooked?

Like rapper Bruce Samazan...

Okay, so she never was a soapie star, but Jo Beth Taylor is worthy of this thread...

Who could forget Ally Fowler, Eve von Bibra, Tottie Goldsmith and the other one? Had appearances on several different soaps between 'em.



I actually own the 12" vinyl of the above song. Should I be ashamed of that? :oops:

A guy I went to school with bought about 30 of these CD singles from a 'bargain bin' somewhere for a very minimal amount.
Signed each of them, "with love, Bruce Samazan". And then sold them to the younger kids at school. He made more than he paid for them!

2 of my favourite songs in high school.

Some people used to say I even looked like her a bit (hair was blonde back then)

Nice resistance, not using the line about "detonators" in that :D

I had the biggest crush on her at that time. Met her a number of times at record store signings etc. One of the nicest people you could hope to meet too.
