1982 was a bit of an end of era year...

By this time Curtis had died, TX and Magazine had split, Wire hiatus, etc. PiL had released their last album in their original spirit. Etc.

And it was probably about 1986-87 when things *really* took off for me again (early Happy Mondays, Loop, MBV, etc).

But still lots of great stuff - early solo Cope, Dexys, JAMC, Smiths, etc.

Sure the 80's production has dated but sometimes it comes full circle. Dare would have sounded date at one time but like early 60's stuff you see it it for what it was after a while. It's great! I wish the drums weren't so big on some of Iggy's Blah Blah Blah though!!

Edit: Great period for singles though. Word Up. Cloudbusting. The Message. Kiss. Millions of the little buggers!!
