THE POWER STATION "the power station" vinyl, 1985:
a supergroup of sorts...
Robert Palmer, both Taylor's from Duran Duran and the drummer from Chic....
Palmer wrote or co-wrote most tracks so his sound is all over it...
a couple of covers, one from Isely Brothers and "get it on" from T Rex....
eight tracks....
love the first side's four tracks, superb stuff...
the remaining four are the two covers and what i'd consider two Palmer throwaways...
so love four, dislike four....
sorry, but Isely Brothers are sacred to me and T Rex, well, like Bowie, no one should be allowed
to record the songs because no one can improve on what was....
at the same time as this, the other members of Duran Duran recorded under the name Arcadia,
I have that album ready to play tomorrow...
great live version of this one:
