BOS5 Sade, "Smooth Operator" -- ooo, the Looooooooong version!

That's  my BOS overall.  And WOS for Bryan Adams.

aaaack! WOS Bryan Adams. And we were doing so well.

Overall,  an example of a good, workmanlike set: no bustouts, but a couple semi-rarities at least.

BOS to Dire Straits, especially for the trumpet arrangement.


Ditto.  One of the great LPs of the 80s.

And all digital!  I remember it was one of the first CDs I ever got, probably that same year or in 86.


IIRC, Brothers in Arms was the top-selling CD ever for quite a while, although I assume it's since been eclipsed. Partly for its great sound, certainly and partly it was just timing--it was one of the first megahit rock albums after CDs became more common in the marketplace.

Trivia: what was the first digitally recorded album? Don't know if we've ever heard anything from it on 10@10.

Is this David and David?  Sounds vinyl to me.  Can't say I like it though.

Jeff Beck, eh?  Makes perfect sense now that I think back to that noisy guitar sound he uses.  But who's the singer?

One out of three on the vinyl--I gotta get my ears checked, or get better cans.

Hard to tell who the singer was.  There aren't any famous vocalists credited, save Rod Stewart on "People Get Ready".  Amusing that Jan Hammer plays keyboards on that album.

whoever it was, he sounded like he was doing a so-so Jagger imitation (I thought maybe it was solo Mick at first).

Bonus: Smiths, "How Soon is Now?", which Annalisa has played as an '85 bonus several times, but which I don't think Dave has ever played in a set.

Damn, I used to know this.  Taj Mahal or Ry Cooder?

I haven't heard the song in a while but does KFOG, when they play Money For Nothing, play the album version or the single version?? Because I remember the album version they use the word "faggot".

Dingdingding! Ry Cooder's Bop Til You Drop was the first album to be recorded digitally.

The Rising Sons connection, eh?

As I remember it, the CD version had some significantly different versions than the vinyl.
