Silky sinning

OK! A week off the decks, and now I'm refreshed and ready to rock, roll, or some combination of the two. Metaphorically that is, because we're jumping back in with a rather un-rocking tribute to sin.

In the '80s, guitar strangler/late-model samba practitioner Arto Lindsay had the nifty idea of releasing a series of albums based on the seven deadly sins. So he hooked up with avant keyboardist Peter Scherer and created the Ambitious Lovers, a vehicle for state-of-the-art (now very dated) dance pop that was mostly outside their respective comfort zones. Results were mixed, and I think they only got around to three of the seven sins before the project ran aground. Here's one of the winners. I guess the coming-slowly-toward-you-at-the-bar groove is where the lust fits in.
