This is a great series from @raypadgett.bsky.social. So great that I put Empire Burlesque back on. Not that it's ever far away. I probably pull it out, happily, once a year (1/x)

Empire Burlesque came out 40 years ago today! In part two of my series, I interviewed Arthur Baker, the man responsible for the album's distinctive sound.
"The bottom line is, it was the '80s. Looking back, even if it had been five years later, I would have done it totally differently."
