80's club scene :)

O.M.G!!!!

We LOVED Device...especially this song!!!

Still do.

Very powerful track.

Holly Knight, keyboardist, was apparently a VERY well known songwriter and wrote many top hits back then. This was her venture out on her own.

Every once in a while I find yet ANOTHER new find from the 80s...and I always think I've heard all of it. Found another treasure (as if it was new...least is to me)...Blancmange.

NEVER come across "new" music, except from the 80s. Weird.

bump and 5*

For me...if the Roland Jupiter 8 is in use...it's a major player for me!!!

Johnny Clegg was known as the White Zulu for his dancing, but his anti-Apartheid band Juluka/Savuka could not perform or get air time in the USA because sanctions affected all South Africans, regardless of politics.

Martha and the Muffins from Toronto - Echo Beach

Excellent song. This whole album is fucking great. It would be be one of my Top 10 desert island picks. His fake "British" singing accent makes it all the more endearing.

This album, Soul Mining by The The, would also be one of my top 10 album picks. Here's a track from it:

If you mention the existence of this album Al Jourgensen, he'll punch you for bringing it up.

5 star thread! I'm a total music head.


Saw these fellas when I was in high school. My first experience with stage diving, also slam dancing- which is now referred to as a "mosh pit"

WTF? how is it you think nobody has heard when of the more noted songs of that era?

WTF? Nobody has heard of the cures biggest hit?
