Simon Power, producer 'Going Solo'    Said...

Thanks for the kind words, Rich. It was great to speak to Mike as he produced so many good records in the late 70's early 80's. China Crisis, Tears for Fears & Gang of Four as well as the one's mentioned here. It was great listening to him talking about OMD's Souvenir as it's one of my fav records ever. Glad you enjoyed it, too!
