I heard them on WNEW-FM in NYC, which - at that time - had some DJs who played new, obscure, and cutting edge stuff. Oh yeah! A Rickenbacker... that explains it all.

Nice New Wave, Cutting Edge and stuff nobody else was playing. It left a mark on me.

An old favorite for certain. The entire album is a gem in my humble opinion of course.

Just saw/listened to your replyâthat was quite good although I didn't catch a lot of the lyrics. How did you know about Bram? All I heard of him on FM radio back in the day was "Girl of My Dreams" and that was a minor hit.

They featured Bram Tchaikovsky's first couple of LP's. I have those disc still. But I picked this up a few years ago which made listening a lot easier... https://www.amazon.com/Strange...
Great stuff that isn't played anymore.

Another one...

Wow, thanks for that memory. Had it on VHS. Iâve been following Copeland recently on FB and heâs - no surprise - stillâ¦exuberant. I love how thereâs the little break where he tries to re-establish his claim that heâs the one that wanted to make Roxanne into a reggae beat.
And the whole percussion bed sounds like it might be cobbled together in pieces, which is fine, allowing for more complexity.

If I made my fictional Best Drummer it would certainly include Copeland on cymbals/hi hat, Moonie on toms, Simon Phillips bass, and Bruford on snare.
