Sometimes you don't know what you need until you find it. I have great love for the original, used to dance to it in the Backstage in Maastricht during my student days, and those were good times, but this version is even better.

The rest of the KEXP show is excellent too, so don't forget to check it out too.

Brothers in Arms - one of my fave #AntiWar songs from #DireStraits.

It's about bonds between soldiers on both sides of trenches during the #FalklandsWar.
#MarkKnopfler wrote the song in 1982, when the war happened. Falklands War was a conflict between #Argentina & #UnitedKingdom over islands off the coast of Argentina that each country claims rights to.

A new version of the song was released in 2007 by Knopfler in order to raise money to bring #veterans of the war back to the #Falklands as a way to treat their #PTSD.

Knopfler is one of my fave top 5 guitarists of all time He is a brilliant songwriter too.

The first #rap #GirlGroup vinyl album that I bought in 80s was by #JJFad & this #Supersonic title track made me hit up the record store One of the first acts signed to Eazy E's Ruthless Records label.

*The city of Rialto, CA named a street after the hiphop girl group. Parts of Lurelane off Cactus, were named JJ Fad Way.*
