DUMBWAITERS, INTO YOU LIKE A TRAIN , PRETTY IN PINK and GHOST IN YOU...I wonder if they will tour or make another album?

Always adored "Love My Way", "Heaven", and "Pretty In Pink" since seeing the videos in the 80s.

I found their hits CD yesterday

Picked this up hoping to have it all in one place but the first pluck of Love My Way sounds like a manual tape warble, and they put the original 1981 version of "Pretty In Pink" on it.
Aaaaand, I thought I would recognize a few more, and I don't.

I think the first two albums are minor classics of their time, especially Talk Talk Talk, which I'd say is an absolutely tremendous record. I'm pretty indifferent to most of their other material, but Heaven, Ghost in You and Love My Way are all good singles.

I loathe that re-recorded version from Pretty in Pink - I think the original version is a millions times better.

I so dug the Pysch furs..

Richard Butler used to hang out at the OLD RITZ when they weren't playing. I think he lived around there.
