There we go...I am on the hunt now!

 

[ampegdan]

REM-Lifes Rich Pageant
U2-Joshua Tree

 

[m4rz]

If I offend anyone, remember it's just MO.

Richard Marx - 1987
The Parachute Club - at the feet of the moon 1984 (and I actually like this album) Crap did I just admit that ?!?!
Jermaine Stewart - Frantic Romantic (hahahah) - 1986
Boby Brown - 1988
Glass Tiger
Billy Ocean - Love Zone - 1986
Chico Debarge - 1986

These were all going to be going to the GW...but not now. Just provided me with some entertainment and that has to be worth something. I will try and post some pics of the album covers. The Debarge cover reminds me of "the crying game."

You guys just can't LIST them you have to PLAY them. Hence... PLAYLIST.

Am I sick or what...


The J. Geils Band - Freeze Frame, 1981

 

[m4rz]

Dewd, Debarge is spinning as we speak!! I spell divorce D.E.B.A.R.G.E. at above normal volume levels!

Okay...Simple Minds, Once Upon a Time, 1985. A dollarbin LP find, great condition visually, undergoing intensive evaluation in the Basement Stereo Lab.

Was also going to mention Billy Idol's Charmed Life, another dollarbin LP, but that came out in 1990, too late for the 80's. Short decade, it was.

 

[soundboy]

A target CD no less :thmbsp:

80s music deserves nothing but the best....

 

[Mr. Lin]

C'mon, how bout some really shameless stuff:

Mister Mister
El Debarge
.....
shall I go on or am I just embarassing myself Oh, and if I have to I will take pics!

Oh, that made me laugh! I actually thought about Mister Mister when I read the title of this thread, even though I honestly don't have it on vinyl (I swear), which is about all I listen to in the 80s department.

 

[Mr. Lin]

Not to be a copycat, but I haven't listened to it in years so:

Tears for Fears Songs From the Big Chair

 

[JesusChrysler]

Well, I just got done listening to some 80's BOC:

Imaginos.


On LP.


F*****g-A good stuff right there.

Check it out.
