Love this tune!
I'm at maximum volume.
That's 2KW of peak Bryston power playing through a pair of Magnepan 3.6s plus another 1.5KW from the Paradigm Servo 15.

I don't push my system that hard very often. 100dB is not good for the ears, and I want to listen to RP until Bill and I are very old men.

However, this song begs me to crank it every time.

Wow! Awesome sound system!!!!

Like it. Horn section is strutting, and enough percussion to smartly carry the big band sound.

After thinking him just anither 80's has been, I worked on gig with him and found him engaging, articulate and intelligent, a great songwriter and perfomer. A thoroughly good egg. Bump up that score ! ^

Stuff of my youth.
This multi-instrumentalist has made some other fun songs too...
Maybe some other time on RP?

Nik Kershaw has a lot of good music on his older CD's

Not only is it good to hear this, but the Progression of Beats in the last hour or so has been PHENOMENAL and YOU DA MAN, BILL, and your team merits mighty high praise! Keep it coming, thanks!

RP never ceases to amaze me. Nik Kershaw? Here? You mean I'm not the only one in the universe who's heard of him? WOW!


I prefer his older stuff - that may be too much of a stretch for playing here. But, "Wouldn't It Be Good?"


yes, I would have to agree, always impressed by Bill's selections...good to hear an 80's name that can produce a song that still sounds good today!

Any brit (sufficiently old) will remember Nick Kershaw for "Wouldn't it be good", but its nice to hear something else (anything else) from him. Perhaps we've been a little harsh over here in seeing him as a one-hit wonder from the distant past.
