#heaven17 #howmenare Towards the end of 1983, the band (under their B.E.F. guise and assisted by Greg Walsh) helped relaunch Tina Turner's career, producing, and providing backing vocals on her hit "Let's Stay Together", a cover of the Al Green song. 1984 saw the release of Heaven 17's third studio album, How Men Are, which reached number 12 in the UK Albums Chart and was certified silver by the BPI. The album featured the Earth, Wind & Fire brass section, and two singles from the album ("Sunset Now" and "This Is Mine") both reached the UK Top 40, but would be the band's last singles to do so until various remixes were released in the 1990s. The band also worked on the Band Aid single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" at the end of 1984, with Gregory supplying vocals alongside Midge Ure and Sting, after a personal request from Ure that he attend. However, the band did not perform at Live Aid the following year. Heaven 17's first "live" performance was in 1982 on the UK television programme The Tube (though the band made use of backing tapes during this performance). #vinyllove #nowspinning #vinyladdiction #vinylcollection #thorens #thorensturntable #thorenstd160 #thorenstd160mk2 #nowspinning #nowspinningvinyl #nowspinningonvinyl #vinyl33rpm #vinylgram #vinyllovers #vinylrecord (bij Oss) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0ZE_SsCjkyk_sHdoGnqubNHHQdooC2S9sPHA0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
