Recorded at the iconic Mushroom Studios here in Vancouver. Killer record.

They were my 70s rockin' lady voices. My 70s East Coast voice was Carly Simon and my 70s West Coast voice was Linda Ronstadt

Yeah, 80s Heart was what I grew up on and then I discovered the older stuff and was dumbstruck
-
Great band. I saw them live in Fargo and they had the cleanest sound I'd ever heard. It really showed their musicianship.

It is amazing to me how clear the distinction between 70s Heart and 80s Heart is.

One of the rare bands whose 80s catalog was also very good.
