Bleah - WOS for Van Hagar.

Triple-Jinx for Hagar the Horrible.


I don't really like this that much, I just had to give it a shout out.

now, Sting may still have been on the LP chart in '86, but this album says 1985 to me.

Was this album from 86 or 85? I for some reason associate it with the latter.

Yep, per the Top 40 list, it hit #8 in 85. Hmmm.

Y'know, I'm just going to stop posting and mentally send all my comments to Mike instead and let him take care of it. It would save me so much time... :D

Off to SD tonight for the long weekend, and probably coming in late on Tuesday as it's the first day of first grade for my son & we'll probably want to hang for a bit at school.

Hope everyone else has a nice weekend too!

Is Branford the one who plays the trumpet fanfare fills?  That's my favorite part of that triff track ... but BOS to "War."

Well, Branford is a sax player rather than trumpet (Wynton is the only trumpet-playing Marsalis, to my knowledge). But I don't see a trumpet player listed in the credits for this record, so maybe it is him you're talking about.

I saw them perform this in concert & Branford pulled that sound out of his saxophone.
