Lone Justice, fronted by Maria Mckee, has been a guiltily pleasure of mine since the very first time I heard the tunes Ways To be Wicked and Shelter. This FM broadcast captures Lothe band in Amsterdam on March 1, 1987, 32 years ago today. The band was on tour in support of their second album Shelter, which was co-produced by Jimmy Iovine and Steve Van Zandt. Yet even those two rock heavy weights and an infectious title track, couldn’t help the band achieve the breakthrough commercial success they sought, The album stalled at #65 on the Billboard charts, while the single made it only to #47. A shame that the public didn’t take to this vastly under rated band. Download this one and you can see for yourself what everyone missed.

Saw them open up for U2 on the Unforgettable Fire tour (3/21/85) and enjoyed them. But those memories were obliterated after an inspired set by the headliners.
Thanks for another crack at McKee and company.
This show's performance of "Wheels" is simply heartbreaking!
