Bonnie Raitt, Nick of Time, 1989 on Capitol
Although this was Bonnie Raitt's big commercial breakthrough—and maybe where I first heard her?—it was actually her tenth studio album.

It was produced by Don Was (future Blue Note president), with whom she'd collaborated on Stay Awake. Includes John Hiatt's "Thing Called Love" as well as the title track Raitt wrote.

"Love Shack" is a song by American #newWave band #theB52s from their fifth studio album, #CosmicThing (1989). It was released on June 20, 1989 by #RepriseRecords, and was produced by #DonWas. The song was a comeback for the band, following their decline in popularity in the mid-1980s and the death of guitarist #RickyWilson in 1985.

Album Forever's A Long, Long Time bylo jediným výstřelem kapely Orquestra Was, kterou v roce 1997 sestavil Don Was po konci funkových špionů Was (Not Was). Píseň Hanka Williamse "I Ain't Got Nothin' But Time" nazpíval Sweet Pea Atkinson. Právě teď ji najdete na prvním fleku mého spotify #VelkýSummitPlaylist.

Was (Not Was) nebyli jen kapelou. Byli převlekem. Detroit, funk, paranoia, humor jako brnění charakteru. Špioni v domě funku, kteří se smáli apokalypse dřív, než byla realitou.
