1 CENT CD: Platinum Weird (Dave Stewart of Eurythmics)
Condition of CD: Mint Condition!
His bio begins 'Platinum Weird is the name of Dave Stewart's new rock band. This is no ordinary band, but what it does have is an extraordinary past. Stewart (best known for being half of the Eurythmics) has returned to Platinum Weird 32 years after the band originally split. Don't let Platinum Weird's rich history take away from the band's incredibly moving rock 'n' roll songs. The feature single, "Will You Be Around," could easily be an outtake from Fleetwood Mac's Rumours sessions. The previously unreleased 1974 album, Make Believe, is being released by Interscope Records in North America on October 10, 2006.
In addition to writing hundreds of songs with Annie Lennox via Eurythmics, Stewart has also written songs with Mick Jagger, Bono, Sinead O'Connor, Bryan Ferry, Bob Geldof, Anastacia, Jon Bon Jovi, and has produced everyone from Aretha Franklin to the Ramones. Kara DioGuardi is currently America's most celebrated female songwriter, and has penned songs for Santana, Christina Aguilera, Ashlee Simpson, Hilary Duff, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, and Kylie Minogue.
The history surrounding the original incarnation of Platinum Weird continues to intrigue rock 'n' roll enthusiasts. In 1974 Dave Stewart formed PW in London with female songwriting partner, muse, and soul mate, Erin Grace. Their debut gig was at Mick Jagger's birthday party and they quickly enjoyed a cult-like status and following in London’s rock club scene. Elton John's Rocket label signed the band, putting down an advance to send them into the studio and lay down tracks.'

Album notes
Platinum Weird: Erin Grace (vocals); Dave Stewart (guitar); Noel Chambers (piano, organ, Mellotron); Matthew Sugarman (bass instrument); Brian Parfitt, Ringo Starr (drums). A collaborative effort between Eurythmics guitarist Dave Stewart and singer Kara DioGuardi, Platinum Weird was created as a faux-1970s band, and turned into the subject of a VH1 mockumentary. MAKE BELIEVE presents wispy, Fleetwood Mac-like songs penned by Stewart and his fictional muse, Erin Grace (voiced by DioGuardi), including the wistful "Will You Be Around" and the gentle, folk-tinged "Happiness." While the group has little in common with the Eurythmics, fans of '70s folk-rock--not to mention Christopher Guest-style music spoofs--will be thoroughly entertained.
