It's crazy that Tony, Andy, and Roger put together the group originally as a backing band for other famous singers at the time and Liv Tyler's mom was supposed to sing this. Robert Palmer came in to sing lead on a different song, and found out they recorded this and asked if he could just do a demo vocal over their recording. The rest of the group loved it so much they decided to use Palmer as the vocalist for the whole album 🤘

Listen to how brilliantly gritty the chorus is. Trebly splashy drums with thick bass and the scraping guitar mixed with Palmers killer voice. This will never get old at all. Tight as hell.

jefft68022 hours ago As a TRUE Metal Head in the 80's, you certainly haven't listened to too many good Heavy Metal guitar players have you, because the lead section in this song ain't shit. The lead Kinda sucks from a technical standpoint with all due respect to the late Robert Palmer who was great! If I'm not mistaken, Randy Rhodes from Ozzie, Dave Murray & Adrian Smith from Iron Maiden, and Eddie Van Halen were at the VERY TOP of the food chain as far as Heavy Metal guitar players go from that Era!!! The lead guitar section for this song as well as the guy who played it are not even a pimple on the ass of some of the best Heavy Metal guitar players in the world like those that I just mentioned. Not even remotely close.

The thing I liked about Robert Palmer is that he dressed rather conservatively . He was so damn cool and suave that he didn't feel the need to wear outrageous clothes and funky hairstyles. He was happy to let the other dudes do that. They didn't steal each other's thunder. They shined individually. That's what drew so many of us in.

I like parts of it, but the mix is a little scattered, as is the arrangement. I definitely come back to it every time I listen to the original also.

fucking great awesome song. Best cover ever! Palmer's vocals sell it big time. The drummer and guitar work demonstrate how Rock and Roll is supposed to sound

He was the frontrunner to take the place of John Bonham when Zeppelin were looking into getting back together in the mid-80's but Tony was in a bad car accident and the reunion stalled, mostly because of that.

Lorne Armstrong - 222830 - Well, whatever your point was, Thompson was a complete 'Animal' behind the kit. Whether or not someone can play in odd time signatures has absolutely nothing to do with talent.

He was next to Benny "Papa Zita" Benjamin Motown Funk Brother one of the best unknown in the Business. Benny played Drums on Going To A Go Go. Unfortunately , he along with Bassist James Jamerson died of Alcoholism.

He doesn't get too much of a mention in Nile Rodgers book, which is a same as thought two and Bernard Edward's were the tightest motherfuckers out there. This is also excellent.

ONLY Tony Thompson can make those drums speak like that!!! No one played HARDER!!! R.I.P. 🙏🏿

I feel that Robert Palmer left us far too soon. I think of both his vocal style and visual style as exemplary. Riveting. He was somehow above it all and it was GREAT. Rest in peace Mr. Palmer.

The Power Station takes you by brute force from the first Tony Thompson strike and doesn't let go. Crank it and rock on people! Massive Tony Thompson fan .. RIP man. RIP Robert.

Is this possibly one of the most underrated songs of the 80s. Because I only heard this the other day on Now 5(UK) and totally fell in love with this song and didn't know that the lead singer is Robert Palmer
