    Robert Palmer's shows were great, he always looked like a million bucks and ALWAYS had the hottest women around him.

    For early Robert Palmer check out Sneekin' Sally Through the Alley.

    His 'Drive' CD is still growing on me.

    Thanks to the girlfriend I have jammed to the Power Station and to Robert Palmers greatest hits on many an occasion. Excellent quality great 80's music! I remember the day Robert Palmer passed...I just so happend to be visiting the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland, Ohio of all things. It's a shame he's gone...good voice and one smooth lookin cat! No wonder he had all the hot chicks around him....or was it those Duran Duran boys? Hmmmmm.......

    I don't think it had anything to do with the 'Duran Duran' boys.........
    Though, personally I think Palmer was at his best with Sneakin'
    Sally through the Alley........especially since I grew up on it -
    Still one of my top 25's of all time! :cool: ;):D
