Diamond Life was a wet dream for Face readers in the mid Eighties. Robert Elms types in black polo neck jumpers, 501s and DMs. The kind of trendies, (socialists from comfy homes generally), who made up my social circle in my first terms at university. Personally, at the time, I was more interested in literary gunslingers with Rickenbackers and Telcasters and friends with Kerouac, Philip K. Dick and Renata Adler paperbacks in their coat pockets. This record sounds heavenly to me now and Sade just divine darling. Espresso and Gitanes.
