Indiscreet 25 Live

On September 8th 1986 our first album INDISCREET was released. Recording started in the hedonistic atmosphere of Ibiza and finished in the more earthy surroundings of Wood Green, North London.  Who would have thought back then that in 2010 Planet Rock listeners would vote "Frozen Heart" one of the greatest AOR songs of all time?  25 years have passed but the songs from INDISCREET still hold a special place in all our hearts.

It is only fitting that we mark such an important day in FM history with something special so we're excited to announce the launch of 'Indiscreet 25 Live' - for the next 12 months we'll be celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the release of INDISCREET with competitions and more.  Our dedicated Indiscreet 25 Live page will be the place to congregate for all the latest INDISCREET-related news and to share your memories.  Check out the new page now for more info and a chance to win one of our new Indiscreet 25 Live T-shirts!

Steve Price will be helping us launch the Anniversary celebrations this Sunday, September 11th on his ARfm Rock Show from 6-9pm.  We'll be joining Steve live for a chat so please join us on Sunday at www.arfm.co.uk.

Thanks everyone for all your support over the last 25 years!
