this is the sound of my 20s.

Not sure if Teardrop Explodes - Treason was late 70s or early 80s, but that's a cracker too.

oh yes, there's also...

The Mission - Wasteland, Serpent's Kiss, Severina, Tower Of Strength, etc
All About Eve - Wild Hearted Woman, Martha's Harbour, Flowers In Our Hair
Sex Gang Children - Sebastiane, Mauritia Mayer
Public Image Ltd - Public Image, This Is Not A Love Song
The Clash - Bank Robber, Magnificent Seven
Skeletal Family - Promised Land, She Cries Alone
Blancmange - Living On The Ceiling
and many more

There were some good 80's tunes, they were mainly to be found in the 70's and 90's.

Mr Drummer you will love my vid. I love all your selection so The Sound should be right up your street.

Does anyone know why a third to half the links are blocked on an iPad?
And those that I can see some great tracks and long forgotten memories!

Anyone got the App 'mixerbox'? You can drop in all these youtube vids and play them. I downloaded it ages ago but haven't really used it yet.

Here's a band that never quite made it... same label as Frankie and Propaganda.
The version of 'Homage to the Blessed' they did on the Tube was about 2 mins longer than the single version so I put it onto a cassette 🙂

Saw CFH and Tazzy's Fuzzbox links and thought, [s]mmm, Vickie Perks[/s] "where are they now?"

Seems they're here:

(Apart from the guitarist, who died from cancer recently)
