1. We Will Be Strong (pre-Rocking The Night Away) (Info by Ole from YT descripiton):
This is a track That I made in 1979 with my band MANDRAKE, at that time called "We Will Be Strong" but later, in 1983-84 when I had joined the "new fame" band WITCH CROSS, Alex the vocalist rearranged the lyrics so it became the more catchy and "sing-along" like "Rocking the Night Away", which we also made a video for in 84'.

"We Will Be Strong" and "Alien Savage" was recorded in the ROCKTAPE studio in the autumn of 1979 and recorded/mixed by my long time friend Peter Brander, who later made a far better tape for us with another vocalist, Noel De Castro Tofino, also a very dear friend of mine who very sadly had a very brutal ending, as he was killed by a hit and run driver...

2. Alien Savage (Info by Ole from YT descripiton):
Another track that I made with MANDRAKE in 1979, which also became a track used on the "fit for fight" album I made with the Witch Cross boys...although with the same lyrics, of course improved a lot on the album.
