I like suicide blond by INXS better.
The singer had an incredible voice, I’m surprised they weren’t more successful instead of a one hit wonder.
Great Song.
This is what they were really known for, Joey was later. I saw them in concert about 35 years ago, and the whole night everyone kept yelling “Hollywood”
This is still in my rotation I play as I work.

I saw them at the 9:30 Club in D.C.
fantastic song - my favorite for a long time. She nailed it - the girl in love with an alcoholic
I liked “Ghost of a Texas Ladies Man”.
Great band, I have an album of theirs and I know every lyric...
One hit wonder? This song was a hit, and the album is a favorite of mine to this day.
“God is a bullet”

“Joey” was the first Concrete Blonde song I ever heard. Loved it instantly. My all-time favorite of theirs, though, is “I Want You,” which was featured in the movie Point Break and is on the soundtrack. Great song, great band.
They did an awesome version of “Everybody Knows” that is on the Pump Up the Volume soundtrack. Some of their stuff just gave me goosebumps, and not particularly in a good way: “Caroline” and “Tomorrow, Wendy” come to mind. So dark.
Just recently I bought their version of “Ghost Rider in the Sky.” Pretty darn good!
Thanks for the flashback!!!
Thanks. I liked “Caroline”, too.
