Love both SOS and Level 42 since childhood.

Very classy of MK.

[@ilovesuisse1]

Swing Out Sister and Level 42 are two of my top bands.

[@namtil]

The original studio version of "Breakout" is great, including all of its synth parts. However, this performance demonstrates what can happen to a pop tune when a really hot rhythm section adds their touch and groove to it. In this case, it's taken to a whole new "level".

[@johnmaer]

Here's the other thing about your observation....it also explains to a degree why many artists whose musical chops call for a large ensemble of musicians backing them just can't cut it .....and they don't tour because of the numbers and financial game. It would cost tons of Euros, dollars, pesos, lira, etc. to hire all these backing band members, hire the tour manager, handle the logistical arrangements, travel itinerary, charters, ground support.....just a shame. So, you see these artists touring in acoustics only venues...with maybe one or two supporting musicians.....it changes everything, and not for the better usually. The sound quality just isn't there.....Instead, we're stuck with going to see the old geezer Rolling Stones act or pantomime or whatever it is that they do now on stage....it isn't about the music. They still sell enough tickets so they can pay for all that entourage and backup band who play their songs.
