  2. Joan Armatrading - Walk Under Ladders

    In the early 80s, Armatrading pivoted to a more pop sound. On Me Myself I (produced by Richard Gottehrer of Blondie fame) she was backed by most of Springsteen's band.

    On this 1981 release Steve Lillywhite takes over the boards, and she's backed by folks like Tony Levin, Andy Partridge, Sly & Robbie, Jerry Marotta,, and Thomas Dolby.

    A&M clearly wanted a hit.

    Lots of fun.

  3. "Leipzig" by Thomas Dolby (played recently on #NTSLive) makes me think of his old band, the Camera Club. I don't know why it's so hard to find official digital media of the Camera Club - there's a horrible version of "Video Killed the Radio Star" that appears on some compilations.

    I'm sure you knew that Tim Curry sings "Toxic Love", but did you know that Thomas Dolby wrote it? (And "Batty Rap". And "She Blinded Me With Science", if you were wondering who he was...)
