Anyone have one to get rid of ? I'd love to have one for my collection, I seen they came out with a reissue of it 10-12 yrs. ago but it had Emotions in motion on the same CD and I have an original of both Emotions in Motion and Don't say no (which I also have on SACD). I can't believe you can buy LP's new today for as little as 5.00 YET both the reissue of Signs of life and Emotions in Motion and Signs of Life are well over 3 digits. I guess I should have bought the reissue when it was selling for $15. I thought that they would reissue the Signs of Life CD at that time as well. It just behooves me as to why this one OOP CD has went so HIGH. It really is not all that good but I'd like to have one for my collection as it was one of those from my youth that brings back great memories.

    Every once in a while I hear of a popular artists album I don't have but this isn't one of those moments.
    Almost 29thousand albums with no sign of not keeping it growing but it is slowing as I am concentrating on new releases and new upcoming talent to broaden the spectrum.
    Signs of life is a cool album. Rock me tonight ...brings back some memories!😄🎩

    Well if you cant find it here on the German Amazon website it might be a hard one to track down. I have found lots of stuff off of third party sellers on this site. I have a few friends over there I will ask them to keep an eye out at some of the local shops we used to get music at we used to hit stores in Stutgart, Ludwigsburg, and The town I lived in Heilbronn, and it is usually easy to track stuff down in those locations. I have all of the LPs from Tale Of the Tapes to Signs of life, lost intrest after that. Why not just get the twofer that's available everywhere?

    Please see what they can do. The twofer I've found are all over $100.00. At this point I'll buy it if I can find one reasonable. I personally do not find over $100.00 plus shipping reasonable for a CD.

    Assuming you already seen this you could always sell Emotions In Motion.

    Just be patient and keep looking on Ebay. One sold for $14 last Wed. There are a million of the CD's out there. The people listing one for $150-220 are smoking crack.

    There you go and it's not a twofer its actually two separate CDs nice grab. I do find the original capital cd releases lacking Bass on Dont Say No and Emotions in Motion, hope it isn't like that on Signs Of Life. Now start looking for Pipers output the band he was in before going solo good stuff.

    Billy Squier? Saw them a lifetime ago. They were the warm up band for Foreigner back when I was a wee lad.
