Yeah, and history says it and this, the first single, came out in Aug of 1986.  Not the first time Dave has played this in an '87 set, iirc.

It's been doing that all morning--I think one of their CD players is having a little trouble.
Let's get right to it.

It was a single in '87 -- not a big hit, but it enabled Warners to flog it for a Record of the Year Grammy nom the year after the LP won Album of the Year -- and it got the nom, in that infuriating Grammy way.

Well, it can certainly  be said that Graceland had the 'legs' to make it into '87

Great Pretenders tune now!

BOS2 "Battleship Chains". Well, the J&T stuff made an '87 set (the most egregiously Katrina-laden year, bar none) almost bearable.
