Musical Interlude: Trouble (1981)

 Lindsey Buckingham peaked at #9 on the Hot 100, and hit #1 in Australia & South Africa with "Trouble", the 1st single from his solo debut, "Law & Order", released in the fall of 1981. Buckingham is joined by Fleetwood Mac bandmate Mick Fleetwood, former bandmate Bob Welch, and guests Dwight Twilley and Walter Egan, among others, in the video.


If anything, this might've led to Twilley getting some premium MTV airplay of his own three years later with "Girls".

"Girls" didn't come out until 1984. Twilley had 9 years in between hits in the U.S., similar to the Dutch band Golden Earring ("Radar Love" and "Twilight Zone" were 8 years apart, 1974-1982) in avoiding the one hit wonder tag and spacing those hits into different decades.

I thought it was '82. Sorry, but thanks for the heads-up, Hal.
