... after not hearing it for probably the thick end of 20 years, downloaded it for the car for a long drive and knew EVERY word.

This but Holy Diver by Dio which I put on Spotify in readiness for The Last in Line gig. The whole album was just sat on a shelf in my mind ready for me to play again and it was if I'd never not listened to it. Meanwhile...if any anyone knows where I've put my car keys?

There are so many fantasic records that people have suggested. 'That' album is more than the couple of Joni's I mentioned previously. The first three Jack Bruce albums I know by heart. Rapture and Giving you the best that I've got by Anita Baker are special to me. Like I say, there's always more than one...

I still remember the the hairs on my neck standing up when I very first heard "Don't Stand so Close to Me "

Oh yes, gotta get me some cheap sunglasses. No album before or after sounds quite like that one, a transitional piece between old ZZ and new IMO.

I'm going to put that on after my Soundcloud Lettuce binge .

Not played that album for a long while.
Listened today and was surprised at how much I still knew inside out.
Some truly top, top playing with awesome grooves and very catchy hooks.
