There are two different versions of this LP. The US (I think)has "the Fever" and "Ahdning You Over" instead of "run run" and Nothing You Can Do About it".

Thanks for the info! As being a Dutchman I had the Lark edition :)

God how I loved this album in the 80s. Had the vinyl and just loved it. I love the comment on playitloudforever "Highway Chile was a Dutch band, however their lead singer Armand Vander Stigchel (despite having the most Dutch sounding name EVER!), did not sing with an accent. He was born in Chicago."

This is hilarious, because what is the most Dutch-sounding name besides "Armand van der Stigchel"?? Ha ha, for sure in the 80s I was convinced he was Dutcher-than-clogs'n'tulips! (just a joke, Bones!). I always marveled at his perfect singing accent though.
I bought the Reborn Classics CD later in the 90s and was very disappointed in the poor bootleg soundquality, and it was my first listen to Rockarama, which completely and utterly sucked beyond belief. But Storybook Heroes is a timeless classic. Hail!

Joke taken LOL. Yeah Rockarama is not my cup of beer either. None of the original members were left when this.. well what you ever call it.. was recorded.

I have three versions of this album: the first one on Lark, the remix on 21Records and the US version on the Mirus label.
They were and still are my heroes.
Armand is a chef these days with his own tv show.
Ronald Bakker is co-owner of the Bagels and Beans franchise in Holland.
