80s Music Thread: what you got?

[Redacted]

I find myself looking at this lady's legs more than noticing the (fairly generic) music. What was that Roxy Music video?
And the Robert Palmer video? - my wife says I married her because I thought she was in the line-up with a Strat, and I wanted the Strat.

£5 says I'm not the only one, you ASR slags!

Thank you!
Yes, a physical copy would be ideal.
I'll hunt again. But it will have to be sometime in June.
Preparing 3 people (including myself: medical, papers, all that stuff) to travel to
other continents to do some family history research for a few weeks now, if all goes well.

I saw a 4K version is available now from Criterion. I don't have 4K but maybe that transfer is better.

Exhibited no skip at the end of side two after this second respinning; must have been something simply caught in the grooves that first time...

Pat Benatar ICON is next to be checked for permanent damage.


2016 MUSIC ON VINYL AUDIOPHILE 180-GRAM REISSUE

 

[J. Lohmann]

MUST get a reissue or clean copy of this seminal piece of work from Babs and Barry -- my original pressing is simply not listenable anymore (had it since it came out in '80).

Essential Easy Listening.

R.I.P. MR. ROB BASE -- YOU WILL BE MISSED AS A BEDROCK FOUNDATION OF THE MUSIC I GREW UP ON

Couldn't believe when I heard the news of his passing; he was only 59. E-Z Rock was already gone, but Rob was soldiering on...I believe it was some kind of cancer.

Can't tell you how many times I spun "It Takes Two" at parties when I was a mobile DJ in the early 90s.

Spun these two in his memory:

I definitely consumed 1980s' music in the 1980s, and amassed a 4-digit CD library. North of 600 LPs; during the 1970s.

But now that it is the 21st Century; I consume 21st century music and my current digital library has grown to 5-digits large.
I have a severe case of the "hoarder's dilemma", ...while Balu Brigada is playing in the background.

Erasure - "A Little Respect"

Maybe a lesser known 80s classic, but a good one!

Haven’t heard this in probably over 20 years...
