Man did you catch that guitar solo!!?
-
I've always wished they'd released this instead of ''call me''. SOS is fantastic and much superior.
-
Superb stuff!
-
@smashmash That was the amazing Carol Kenyon and Sylvia Mason-James. Both amazing divas with fantastic voices.

@jonsilence Alan was a complete sweetie. Generally very quiet and mild-mannered, I think he just got frustrated his guitars weren't doing what he wanted of them.
-
@tryptychUK: Glad you weren't hurt! And also glad that Alan apologised :)
-
@jonsilence I was the keyboards roadie on that show and Alan actually threw it across the stage out of anger, it it bounced off the riser and hit me behind the keys rig. Apparently it didn't keep tune too well.
He came up after and apologised though. Brilliant player and a lovely gentle guy.

Just noticed what appears to be Tina Turner really getting into it @ 3'42" LOL :D
-
@alexgtr789 Been mentioned a few times lol :-) It's an Aria RS Esprit with ACT 3 trem - this was Aria's version of the Floyd rose. In a Guitarist mag interview Alan said he wasn't keen on the trem on those guitars but he had to use them as part of the Go West signature clean sound. Scott

The boys are KILLING it here and the late great Alan Murphy is leading the attack. This is Go West at their absolute peak. Saw them about haf dozen times in LA during this period and they were always brilliant. Alan helped define their unique sound, and after his loss they were never the same.
Alan Murphy Fuckin rocks! Love this song and I've learned the solos note for note. RIP Alan.
