Need more 80's tunes

Recommended Posts

"None of you freaks ever mentioned Devo!!!!!!! "
For good reason!:P Are we not men? Put the Devo in the same trash can as Kraftwerk....

Early U2 stuff might fit in, War, Boy, Unforgetable Fire, Under a blood red sky etc all good road albums.

ZZTop's Eliminator has good road choonz too, Who can forget legs, sharp dressed man, gimme all your lovin', etc.....

Prince's Purple Rain album.

Peter Gabriels 4th album, the one with Solsbury Hill, No self control, and Biko...etc....

But stay away from that new romantic pretentious pish, Teardrop Explodes, Human League, Duran Duran....Its just not good for you!;)

I know I am going out on a limb here but:

Michael Jackson's Thriller

And perhaps not so far on a limb:

Almost anything from Cyndi Lauper
Journey
I also agree with Billy Idol; in particular "Got to be a lover", "Sweet Sixteen", "White Wedding", "Rebel Yell", "Eyes Without a Face", etc.

That's all for now.

I was actually thinkin' of posting something like this the other day. 1st thing I do every morning after getting off work is turning on the digital cable to the Power Rock channel and then checkin' out Blinc and here. All my CDs are from '90 on so the digi cable is easier than haulin' all the old tapes out of the closet.

I miss my long hair and jammin' to Tesla, Quennsryche, TNT, etc...

edited cuz I can't seem to get sig line away from post. I hit enter a few times, so someone tell me, what gives?



Problems just be opportunities in der workin' clothes.

-You're all I've got tonight
-Best friend's girl
-Let's Go
-Drive
-Shake it up
-Hello again

Strangle Hold- Ted Nugent
__________________________________________________

I may be wrong but I think Stranglehold was pre-80s,from back before Nugent ,well,whatever he did,his music really changed.

(edit)Just when did he star singing lead?Maybe THATS what happened;)
