Re: The System - Don’t Disturb This Groove

Great song. Brings back a lot of memories.

Meshell Ndgeocello put a version of it out a few years ago that I listen to all the time: https://youtu.be/uwY_BSiocm0?si=bemVpOtxYasIy4R-

Re: "Without You" or "Tattoo"

Tattoo is great - the verses and solo are as good as any Van Halen. The chorus is jarring at first because Mikey is sorely missed throughout AKOT, but it grew on me. Might be my favorite 80s band song released post-Nirvana. Without You.... couldn't tell you what it sounds like with a gun to my head....

That solo was a disgrace. Covedale should have gone with Viv.
