RIP to a great artist and one who helped shape the musical culture of my youth and beyond.
>Heartbeat City became a large part of my summer in 1984.
Amen. This was one of the first non-mix tapes I owned — via Columbia (or was it RCA?) Music Club. It remained heavy in my rotation through my remaining three years of high school. When their last album came out in '11 or so, I immediately bought it off iTunes. Their sound was fully intact, even sans Orr (RIP to him, another great artist, as well.)
One of their producers, Roy Thomas Baker, also produced for Queen. Such great music.
