Capital City - Simple Minds - Empires and Dance

One of the great joys from the vinyl raid in Kingsbridge was rediscovering this gem by Simple Minds.

The bassline nags, the synths swirl and churn, this is Kraftwerk and NEU via Glasgow tenements. I had forgotten what an interesting arty band Simple Minds used to be before they became a hollow U2 chasing cartoon of themselves.
