Back then you had bands with distinct sounds. The Producers, Adam and the Ants, Squeeze, Elvis Costello, The Police, Echo and the Bunnymen, Big Country.
Today everything sounds the same no matter what genre.

These guys took over in my musical landscape after The Police broke up, in early 1984. I listened to them everyday. Thanks for the post! I got to meet Bryan Holmes (the drummer) at a Chicago NAMM show in 1984. He’s a very nice guy.

Legend has it that Paul McCartney heard this and said “he wished he had wrote it..” . Allegedly a lot of heavy hitters in the biz ran out and bought this record. Brian Wilson, Frankie Valli, Peter Criss, Todd Rundgren…

He works at a music store (giving lessons) in Lilburn, GA. He can seem a little out of it at times and his hearing is horrible.
