But yeah, didn’t take too many years for it to become very clear that the stone roses were not actual messiahs
But it took Covid to truly highlight that Ian Brown is an absolute bell end, ironically joining one our other main 80’s protagonists - Morrisey - on the ‘he’s said what now?’ List 😂
And my other 80’s go to album I still listen to regularly…
The Colour of Spring by Talk Talk.
The two (Dare being the other) are just magnificent works and I keep going back to them.
No Def Leppard?
My most listened to Album of the 80s is Hysteria...
Or possibly No Jacket Required - one of those two.
So, this Fred bloke invented a haircut?
Decided to join in...
Based on what I listened to most during the 80's, apologies if already mentioned -
New Order, low life
Beastie Boys, license to ill
There are Low Life related tracks coming out at the moment, in the lead up to a box set thing.
Same Old Scene by Roxy Music
Have a listen to The Glimmers' remix of this if you haven't heard it, they turn it into an absolute anthem.
JuJu - Siouxsie and the Banshees. Complete brilliance from start to end.
Bowie's Scary Monsters also worthy of inclusion in this list.
Off the back of this, I've just listened to Money For Nothing (yeah it's a greatest hits basically) front to back in hi res through the headphones, rather than Brothers in Arms
Whatever you think of the songs lyrically and stylistically, Knopfler is brilliant and the guitar playing, production and general aural experience is second to none
The Stone Rose
werewas overated.
ftfy, hth. (smiley)
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime
Steve McQueen - Prefab Sprout
Magnum - Storytellers Night
Marillion - Seasons End
