Why would Bruce Hornsby want to hide his association with Sheena Easton? Imagine how many groupies he got in the … Sheena Easton Band!

Man, listen to the harmonies in the chorus of that Jules Shear track. His voice is kinda crumm … I mean, an acquired taste, but three or four or five iterations of his voice singing harmony is pretty cool.

And sorry, dude, but “I Just Called” blows. This is the man who wrote “Superstition” and “Master Blaster” and “As” and “Sir Duke.” He should be smacked with the same switch Brenda sent Lionel outside for.
