After the Bad English unreleased 3rd album featured in exclusive at 0dayrox, many of you asked for the great Rock Candy Records remasters of THE BABYS, the early John Waite band. “Union Jacks“, The Babys’ fourth – and perhaps best album – produced by Keith Olsen (Foreigner, Whitesnake), heralded a change to not only their sound but also their line-up....
After the Bad English unreleased 3rd album featured in exclusive at 0dayrox, many of you asked for the great Rock Candy Records remasters of THE BABYS, the early John Waite band. With two really good albums out, The Babys were ready to explode worldwide with third effort “Head First“. Imagine you are a mid-Seventies rock band from London. You get...
As requested, here’s British melodic rockers THE BABYS album “On The Edge” , as part of the 3 original albums by the band ‘Remastered & Reloaded‘ not so long ago by Rock Candy Records. THE BABYS fifth (and final album) “On The Edge” was conceived and executed in an atmosphere of confusion and fatigue due the endless tours. And the...
It has been requested by many the BAD ENGLISH demos for the third album that never was. So here’s the 0dayrox vault tapes from these sessions. This is NOT the bootleg known as The Lost Tapes with a poor sound / cuts / noises and including John Waite solo songs already released as part of some soundtracks.
Here’s the real Bad English full-band sessions with the best sound quality you would find, mastered by the 0dayrox team via an old – but effective – Tascam machine.

BAD ENGLISH self-titled debut album has been remastered by Rock Candy some years ago, but now has appeared this version as part of he Universal Music Japan series ‘HR/HM 1000‘ (Hard Rock / Heavy Metal at the price of 1000 Yen = about 9 USD) – a more than welcomed campaign reissuing long time out of print albums from the label’s catalog.
The remastered sound here is less ‘bright’ than the RC release, so if you like a more mid-range EQ akin the vinyl LP spectrum, this Japanese edition is for you.
The only remaster done to BAD ENGLISH‘s second album “Backlash” went out of print many years ago. Fortunately now it has been reissued as part of the Universal Music Japan series ‘HR/HM 1000‘ (Hard Rock / Heavy Metal at the price of 1000 Yen = about 9 USD) a more than welcomed campaign reissuing long time out of print albums...
Today we have here in exclusive the fresh Bad Reputation Records remastered version of HARDLINE classic “Double Eclipse” including 4 bonus tracks.
0dayrox already featured some time ago the stupendous Japanese release of this essential album on SHM-CD, but this new reissue includes the juicy bonuses that worth the purchase.
In terms of sound quality, this fresh remaster is a bit deeper in the bass output, fuller and well balanced.
BAD ENGLISH self-titled debut “Bad English” has been Remastered & Reloaded by Rock Candy Records including 2 bonus tracks. The last remastered version of this awesome album went out of print long time ago, so this fresh treatment – far superior – is more than welcomed for all AOR fans worldwide.
There were many attempts at piecing together super-groups during the late ’80s but few were as successful as Bad English, a project born from the mash-up of two hugely influential outfits, namely the Babys (John Waite, Ricky Philips) and Journey (Jonathan Cain, Neal Schon and, later, Deen Castronovo).
Both groups had featured talent to die for, so anticipation was extremely high for this noble alliance.
Fortunately, unlike similar collaborations, the results were spectacular, leaving no one in any doubt that Bad English had delivered a cornerstone record, one that is still revered to this day.

Melodic Rock icon JOHN WAITE has put together – selected by himself – a compilation of his best works into one CD simply called “Best“. The album appeared three years ago but now it will be reissued this August 2017 with a fresh artwork via Waite’s own record label No Brakes Records. From Waite’s mouth; “This collection is called BEST...
After the recent Bad English post one of you asked for this quite unknown JOHN WAITE album “In Real Time” released via Frontiers Music some time ago. The album was recorded live but that meaning all musicians playing together in front of a small group of fans. So “In Real Time” is not exactly a live album, just was done...
One of the most outstanding vocalists in AOR / Melodic Rock history is without a doubt JOHN WAITE, as part of The Babys, supergroup Bad English or a solo artist. His first solo album “Ignition” is perhaps his less listened but one of his best, upbeat, hard rocking albums, greatly ‘Remastered & Reloaded‘ by Rock Candy Records. Born In Lancashire,...
