So come on Pinefox, what *do* you see in Go West?

perhaps the pinefox's refusal to be goaded (Carmoded?) by the slightly confrontational thread title is commendable

"We Close Our Eyes" is great. Dunno about the rest although I was kind of surprised by "Faithful" being quite good several years later.

Thank you, MP4xA. Maybe it doesn't need answering? I like them! Love some of their records.

Grandpoint Genie, good stuff - but I don't especially agree about the falling-off. I think I like 'Call Me' more ... maybe even 'Don't Look Down' too? And there are many other fine Go West tracks. Most of them, on the first two LPs ... it's only with the third, Indian Summer, that things went in the wrong direction.

Random play of '90s hit box set gave me their cover version of "Tracks of My Tears" (UK #16, 1993) last week; it made me giggle how he sang "People say I'm the life of the party / Because I tell a joke or two" sounding like the boringest dullest dude ever.

Didn't they turn up on v silly quasibetshow "Banzai" in some egg-to-forehead-based shenanigans about a decade ago btw?
