      What a deep question. I gotta say YES, NO, and every emotion in between. The thing I keep thinking about is how horrified my parents were when I got my first KISS album in 1975.....they were big band era music lovers (I'm a jazz lover to this day) and I'm sure they felt EXACTLY the way I sometimes feel looking at the music of today - that everything has changed for the worse.....
      In an odd way,though, that thought gives me hope. Know what I mean? PS I also grew up in NJ :-)

    I was in a bar in the Upper East Side New York called « Elaine’s », must have been 1982-83. This guy just walks in, alone, and starts playing on the piano, including this one in a very cool, slowed down version. So I say to my buddy: « This guy’s pretty good ». My friend looked at me dumbfounded « Man, that’s freaking Joe Jackson ». I’d never heard of him. Been a fan ever since.

      Elaine's boasted many celebs, but you had to be cool & not hassle them. Alan King & Mort Sahl were at a nearby tables. The editor of the Paris Review, George Plimpton, was at the next urinal in the men's room. When I brought a Dutch woman there, Sean Connery was at the bar. Woody Allen's movie "Celebrity" has a scene there that featured many who could be found there.

      There is a big difference. Back in the 1980’s Joe was something of an arrogant dick. Nowadays he seems to really appreciate that we love his music.

Beware that sometimes WTUL gets way to political for my liking and probably typical of college radio but I just filter it with the on/off button. Check em out⚜️

    This is one of the most perfect songs. I have no real nostalgic connection to it, but it's just a fantastic vibe. The electric piano chords are such innovative voicings, paired with a driving bass, and the glockenspiel sitting over the top of them. It's just a magical song.

    • @EricBBarker
      @EricBBarker Před rokem +9

      Yeah, you don't just come up with those voicings without a hell of a lot of classical/jazz experience. You hear this kind of thing in background parts played by a lot of studio guys, but never as the front-and-center instrument to rock/pop. Pop stars just don't write this kind of stuff! Only the fringy, heady stuff like JJ, Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, and their ilk. The "anti-punks". Is it prog? Maybe (JJ has obviously dipped his toe into the progrock mode more than once), but more specifically, it's a lot of formal training.

    I remember this concert in 1983 in Pittsburgh PA. After the concert ended we 19 year olds thought let's sneak in the side door and see if we can meet Joe Jackson. All of the the sudden a guy comes walking across the stage with a briefcase. It was Joe... we were dumbfounded and speechless. He says, "I guess maybe you want autographs." He opened his briefcase, pulled out a pen, and signed our ticket stubs. We were in a state of shock... he just performed for three hours and took the time to do that!
