(Monday, 17 October) The 80s sensation that brought us hit songs “ King of Wishful Thinking”, “Call Me”, “We Close Our Eyes”, “What You Won’t Do For Love” and more will be performing live at Hard Rock KL on 8 November at 11pm. The English Pop duo featuring lead vocalists Peter Cox and Richard Drummie will be performing for this one off exclusive showcase as part of Hard Rock Kuala Lumpur’s 20th year celebrations. The celebrations kicked off early this year with Arrested Development, The Grammy Award winning group, performed to a packed house in January 2011.

2011 is Hard Rock Kuala Lumpur 20th year in the city and we will turn 20 in November. This showcase will be one of the key events planned for the month of November, says a Hard Rock representative

“We are happy to be back in Hard Rock as we performed in Hard Rock many years ago and we are happy to be part of their 20 years celebrations. We are ready to rock KL again”, said Peter Cox of Go West.

The English pop duo was formed in 1982 by Peter Cox and Richard Drummie and have had 19 top 10 songs and 6 Top 20 Albums. Go West quickly had a publishing deal and possessed a portastudio, but lacked a band or recording company. Cox and Drummie decided, with support from John Glover, their manager, to find a musical producer, and record just two of their songs. The tracks “We Close Our Eyes” and “Call Me” found Go West developing a record deal with Chrysalis Records. The songwriting duo specialized in radio friendly, white soul sounds.

The band’s debut single, “We Close Our Eyes,” was released in 1985 and managed to reach Number 5 on the UK Singles Chart, and # 41 on the Billboard Hot 100. The video for the song became an early favorite on MTV. This helped them to be voted the “Best Newcomers” at the 1986 BRIT Awards. The song was part of the soundtrack for the Italian low-budget horror film Demoni, also known as Demons. The single would prove to be their highest-placing UK single, and only appearance in the UK Top Ten.

Later in 1990, Go West scored a Top 10 U.S. hit with the song “King of Wishful Thinking” from the movie, Pretty Woman. An instrumental version of the song’s chorus is also alleged to be heard in the production logo for Gracie Films (seen at the end of The Simpsons).

GO WEST Live at Hard Rock Cafe is supported by Litefm, The Concorde Hotel and Calsberg. Tune in to Litefm to find out how to win passers to GO WEST’s performance at Hard Rock Kuala Lumpur.
