Another Taylor ,drummer Roger Taylor(Not Queen&#8217;s drummer) added percussion effects. Released in 1985 two singles were made into videos. I can&#8217;t listen to &#8220;Some Like It Hot&#8221; without picturng Robert Plamer with a priests collar singing &#8220;Feel The Heat&#8221; in the video which was in heavy rotation back then. An Ok version of &#8220;Bang A Gong(Get It On)&#8221;(you can&#8217;t improve on the original) was aso released. With John Taylor&#8217;s bass and Thompsons drums up front the band had a funky sound thanks to Bernard Edwards production. Besides thge two singles I also liked &#8220;Lonely Tonight&#8221; and &#8220;Go To Zero&#8221; which is on my playlist. &#8220;Harvest For The World&#8221; is an Isley Brothers song and sounds more like Duran Duran. They actually put out another album in 1996 that I have never seen or heard. Both Palmer and Thompson died in 2003.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A mid 80&#8217;s band formed by John and Andy Taylor(No relation) of Duran Duran,drummer Tony Thompson from Chic and singer&hellip; <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/2022\/11\/14\/the-power-station-the-power-station\/\">Read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">The Power Station-The Power Station<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4257"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4257\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4259,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4257\/revisions\/4259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.redaem.com\/divad\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
