Dunno about Let's Go All The Way, but we're gonna Do It Again with the Kinks. I remember liking this record a lot when it was released (even saw them on this tour I think), but can't say I've heard it in ages. A 10@10 bustout? A good TOTHC in any case, particularly for 1985.
Let's get right to it.

BOS#2, "Can't Get There From Here" from Fables Of The Reconstruction.

Didja guys hear Dave talking about a top 10 albums of the 80's list?  He nominated Avalon, and promised that this will be the topic of discussion tomorrow morning.  I think it was Peter who mentioned this REM album as a possiblity.

He's played this one*, but I don't think he has played "Living On A Thin Line" yet.

*btw this is another Peaked-at-#41 song (& it did so in the late fall of '84, not '85, but we won't go into that).

I'm giving my BOS to Animotion's "Obsession."  So corny yet so sexy.  No one else has ever bridged that particular gap to my knowledge.

Albums of the '80s won't be complete without Songs From the Big Chair, Nebraska, Born in the USA, and TTD's Introducing the Hardline.

OMG! "Obsession" -- after hearing this for the first time in ages at the BBQ Saturday. Is Dave psychic? (Or did he hear it on 95.7 MAX?)

this is Animotion, but didn't someone else do this too?

I'd nominate Robbie Robertson's first solo record (the one with Showdown at Big Sky). Also the Replacements Let It Be, or maybe Tim. And Peter Gabriel's fourth album (the one that's become known as Security).

Wow, we're four songs in, and nothing has made me think "Oh god, not this again." That's a good sign.

Expecting we'll hear John Fogerty before long tho.

it's days like this that remind me of how out of touch I  am with much of what you young'uns listen to.  I appreciate getting to hang around, but don't have much to add, having never heard Animotion before!
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

Corey Hart - "Sunglasses At Night"
[long, very long commercial break]
Blues Traveler - "Run Around"
War - "Why Can't We Be Friends?"
Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes - "If You Don't Know Me By Now"
Duane Allman - "Midnight Rider"
