Safe to assume that this'll be a Crowded House year in Dave's house?

Same thought crossed my mind. '87 is due--their debut was out in 86, but did it get any chart action in 87? We just heard 88 and 91 last week, which was when Temple of Low Men and Woodface were released.

'87 is actually when "Don't Dream" and "Something So Strong" ended up being hits. It got great reviews in '86 but it took radio 6 months to catch up. Which is why the album was overlooked by the Grammies, if memory serves.

gosh, jackson is worse than the moody blues. at least i like the moody blues.

This vendetta of yours must end! :lol:

But "Boulevard" is not exactly Jackson's finest hour.

Not Jackson's finest by a mile!
