Favourite 70's & 80's hits

Gman has excellent taste. Mi-Sex were always one of my favourite bands, and Steve Gilpin a big favourite:

Thanks rwb. Love my '80s music....I was fortunate enough to be in my very early impressionable teens and without sounding bias the 80s (early to mid) was arguably the best decade in music.
Peter Gabriel's another musical genius who strikes a chord for me.

Golly yes! I always say the 90's were the decade music forgot..so much tasteless techno. If it weren't for the likes of Pearl Jam, Nirvana and Soundgarden, I don't think I'd have anything in my collection from that era.

this one popped up during my afternoon walk:

And the first line of that song should be dedicated to the current crop of referees.

Did you ever read his autobiography Gman? It was very confronting. I think I gave it to Horrie Hastings as I didn't want to read it ever again.

Loved this song back in 1983 and still dig it from this Melbourne band. Some familiar landmarks too in the video. Turn it up and ENJOY.

NB: The use of synthesisers in the early 80's was phenomenal and probably why I bonded to the new romantic feel.

RWB, no I didn't however I've heard some stories after his passing to suggest he was a troubled soul....drug fcuked unfortunately.

Another lost classic from an early 80's Oz band. I remember hearing this for the first time on Sounds Unlimited.

I think I have posted this song once or twice over the last 142 pages , great song which is on high rotation in my house.
