The Stranglers are so 80s though, the sound, the lyrics, everything just suit that era more dont yer reckon? Squeeze- Up the Junction was 1979 but its just got the 80s all over it, post hippydippy/punk influence/Thatchers Britain...

XTC (very underated), love that sound too

Pretenders, Talking Heads, Bronksi Beat, Pet Shop Boys, Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, Tears for Fears, Eurthymics, Frankie goes to Hollywood (not a fan but some tunes ok), Madness, ZZ Top, Ac/DC, Black Sabbath (I know 70's were teir moments but i like their 80's stuff too), Def Leopard, are just a few of my favourites!

Oh yeh Talking Heads, Pet Shop Boys, Madness...the 80s was so cool

frankie goes to hollywood great album

tears for Fears were great ever if they went overblown with the Beatles influence


Ac/Dc are out of this world even though they went **** during the middle 80's

Born to Run simply the greatest amercian record ever released

May I throw Depeche Mode in to the mix please, along with Bauhaus, Japan, Teardrop Explodes/Julian Cope, Adam Ant, Pixies, Cameo, Level 42 (early stuff), Howard Jones, Thomas Dolby, and err, Jive Bunny.

What Springsteen album is the Ghost of Old Tom Jones on? One of the best peices of music ever laid down?

Whitesnake! :love:

Post Punk is my favourite movement ever, circa 78-84. Far better than Punk, which was a cultural cul de sac. The Pop Group, the Slits, PIL, Depeche Mode, The Cure, Gang Of Four, Joy Division, all amazing.

Next best thing to follow was the acid and rave explosion of the late 80's.
