    Think I have every one of their albums, and saw them in mid-‘80s in the Playhouse, Edinburgh.

    She's got a great voice - her cover of Stairway to Heaven is bloody good. Jason Bonham on drums, Plant, Jones and Page sitting in the audience........ no pressure.

    One of the few songs I can think of that - in original form - sounds even worse on a decent hi-fi setup than on a shit car radio. Perfectly decent song, great vocals, but the thinnest and nastiest production I can recall. All treble, no bottom end at all, it wins the "none more '80s" prize and makes Phil Collins' Sussudio (with all that horrid gated-reverb sound) seem listenable in comparison.

    There's a remastered version which is a lot better, and a live 1990 one as well which is worth seeking out.

    Great track with terrible production yet it was produced by Ron Nevison who did some great work on so many albums including UFO Lights Out, Obsession & Strangers In The Night, Bad Company, Ozzy Osbourne Ultimate Sin and many more.

    Video implies that Nancy Wilson plays lead guitar which wasn’t the case. Howard Leese did. Excellent he was too especially live.

    A superb yet underrated 80s tune: the Go Go's Our Lips Are Sealed. Crappy production yet never fails to bring a smile.

    The guitarist is excellent too, very true to the original, in fact sharper and cleaner sound?
