I don't rate some of those as great. Some yes, but some no. And some I just don't know and I think I have a wide range in music taste. Perhaps not that wide though!

GoodBye Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I hate to post this for fear of the kind of responses I'll get but I'll do it anyway. Do any of you remember The Hooters?? I thought they were pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is the 80s was not all Chaka Khan, 99 Luft Balloons and Aha. There was a great punk scene going on, there was a thriving metal scene, some great classic rock(Billy Squier, AC/DC, The Who, Stones, Aerosmith, etc), an incredible alternative scene(back when alternative was alternative), Ska, World music, free jazz, funk, hiphop, gangsta, techno. The 80s had some kick ass music BTW I graduated HS in 87- all 4 years REM was the biggest thing. Those early albums are fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have graduated in 82 or 83. I waited till 1991 for the GED and moved on from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
