VHM REM

This is quite Moreyesque, on one of his slightly bored phoning-it-in days.  And SRV seals the deal.

... and to what may have been the last great Bowie single.

Not a fan of "Absolute Beginners"? or are we talking hit singles (which "AB" really wasn't in this country)?

Hello, 1984 again.

Geoff gets his request for "Trina, Trina"  ;)
Jeez, has it really been played that much?  What about the title track?
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

Any Thompson Twins song is always welcome in my book.  You Take Me Up is a song off of Into The Gap that I love.   :)

Not really. Doctor Doctor is the second-most-played TT song, but The Gap far outdistances it, 10 plays to 5 in the Morey era.
