One of my Navy roommates was a huge Kool and Gang fan, so I heard a lot of their music 40 years ago.

1960 Holly Johnson, rock vocalist

Produced by Trevor Horn, I never expected to like this. Guaranteed speeding ticket if driving.

Trevor Horn: "Steve Lipson was a brilliant, you know, brilliant engineer and a lovely guy, and I remember coming in (to the studio) one day and he said listen to this and it was welcome to pleasure dome I was like "what have you done??" he said I put the chords over the verse and I was like "how did you do that??" and he was "the offset, offset of 2 machines- I put this on that and that on that so we can do additive multitrack editing" so that was it we did was welcome to pleasuredome"...

The other roommate was an acid head and listened to trip music all the time. Plus the Kool and Gang fan was also a Rush fan, so all in all, better than the space music.
