Was (Not Was) - What Up Dog? (1988)@flac

Was (Not Was) is an American band founded in 1979 in Detroit, Michigan, by David Weiss and Don Fagenson, who adopted the stage names David Was and Don Was.
Their song catalog features an eclectic mix of pop and rock styles, often featuring guest musicians from across the musical spectrum.
In 1988, they found their biggest hit with the album "What Up, Dog?", which featured the hit singles "Walk the Dinosaur" and "Spy in the House of Love".
Special guests included Stevie Salas, John Patitucci, Frank Sinatra Jr., and a writing credit from Elvis Costello. (wikipedia.org)

Here is crisp tight production moving from funk to R&B to lounge to rock to ballads, it all happens here.
There are sensational vocals from Sir Harry Bowens and Sweet Pea Atkinson and it is packed with memorable melodies coupled witty, bizarre or touching lyrics.
This was their finest hour. The wide choice of styles does not affect the quality and even today, it is still strong.
It charted at (UK47) in the album charts. (Liner Notes)
