Hi Mike, Thanks for the DK tip, I'll give it a whirl. Yes, a wonderful voice but you are right to point out, she ain't no slouch on the ivories either.

Like most of his solo work this is nicely recorded with good SQ on the Geffen Label.

A Stones album i like. Enjoying this. Shame about the SQ though - it's abysmal.

Vinyl, arrived today. I bought this after much discussion about it on another forum and the reviews in the Penguin and Gramophone guides. Very different to his other material, but I can see this will be spending quite a while on the turntable. Very enjoyable.

Definitely in need of another slice of Don Henley in his pomp, this one was his second solo release on the Geffen label and features the multi squillion selling, extremely catchy "Boys of Summer".  

I guess I have to add was it really 32 years ago? Really 32 years!!?

"Boys of Summer", just one of those songs .......................appears on car radio, ..................cue dreadful off key singing from the driver.

Toto IV - IMHO a quintessentially 80s album.
