Go West

I was in a hotel elevator the other day and heard We Close Our Eyes. Does anybody remember this duo? I loved hearing Eye to Eye on Grand Theft Auto too. Ah, the 80s. Good times.

nod They did do a decent remake of Caldwell What You Won't Do For Love. But, my all time favorites by these guys are Call Me and We Close Are Eyes.

Go West was Kool!! I always thought Peter Cox had a great voice. My favorite was actually their second album, Dancing On the Couch--Didn't have Any hits on it, but it featured nice guest work from musicians like bassist Pino Palladino, Kate Bush, and the late Guitarist Alan Murphy. my favorites Go West tunes were:

Eye To Eye worship worship worship
Little Caesar
The King Is Dead (w/ Kate Bush)
Masque Of Love
From Baltimore To Paris
Blue Beat
Forget That Girl
The King Of Wishful Thinking
Goodbye Girl
Crossfire
True Colours
Call Me

H*ll yeah. I heart "We Close Our Eyes." One of fave '80s tunes. 1985 had a lot of great modern rock/R&B tunes like the former along with Level 42's World Machine LP, most notably the breakout hit "Something About You." Joan Armatrading was rocking as well that year with Secret Secrets, but I won't stray off-topica. wink

My brother saw them live at the Robin 2 in Bilston last year.
