Cringe factor peaks after 2:40
(I've never seen a band slide downhill as fast as this one did after New Gold Dream, which was superb)

Sorry, but messrs Burchill and Kerr will always have a god like status due to New Gold Dream. Good on them that they're still out playing. Yeah they went cheesy, but New Gold Dream forgives everything.

I like a bit of simple minds and at their age if they want to "dad dance" then fire away.

Those Jupiter-4 and Oberheim sounds are truly magical on that record (NGD).
As for "cheesy", well that's a very mild way of putting it.
Edit: Oh, and that Herbie Hancock solo on Hunter and the Hunted...what a track.

Oh yes indeedy, and not to mention Derek Forbes, showing how to bring the basslines to the fore. And as for the drumming on "Somebody Up There Likes You". Strewth. What a combination of talent

To be fair, the crowd are probably well aware what they're in for.
