Before we continue our journey into the singles released in 1989, Matt Aitken joins us for a special episode recapping the era from 1984-88. We go way back to SAW's first single, "The Upstroke", and talk about the record that brought Mike Stock, Matt Aitken and Pete Waterman together, as well as some of the hi-NRG tracks that followed (including previously un-discussed songs by Rik LeVay and The Lewis's). Matt also gives his perspective on working with Divine, Dead Or Alive, Bananarama, Debbie Harry, Laura Branigan, Sabrina, La Toya Jackson and more. He also talks about the never-released tracks completed with Judas Priest and why some songs ended up being recorded by more than one artist. Did SAW make demo recordings? Who was "Turn It Into Love" written for? How did the Hit Factory ensure quality control? Which artist would he have liked to have done more work with? All these questions and more are answered by the A in SAW.
