Re: Your favorite 80's band?

yeh, Keren Woodward..always my fav of the 3...yummy!

I just had a peek at the Bananarama website (Keren, & Sarah Dallin still going strong it seems) and boy do they still look fantastic considering they're both fast approaching 50!!

Andrew Ridgely frequents one of my drinking establishments, and his mrs occasionaly takes the brownies for dance lessons,(or did).

She was the one who was always half-a-step out when Bananarama tried to dance so the poor Brownies must have been all over the shop!

Re: Your favorite 80's band?

I was mad about Liquid Gold....tragic I know but I still think their sense of fun and cheesy disco-funk was uplifting, just a pity they weren't around too long, "Dance Yourself Dizzy", "Substitute" and "The Night, The Wine and the Roses" were their biggest hits. I later became a Thompson Twins fanatic and travelled from Glasgow to London to see them in concert in 1984. When my teenage angst kicked in I bacame a pedlar of misery and joined Morrissey's fanatical following with his band "The Smiths". I still listen to all these bands today and on the original vinyl !

I see you share my intense dislike of Country and Western music CW !! Mainly because it is so ruddy depressing, as you so eliquently pointed out

My mate Paul produced the Tight Fit attempt at stardom. I still dislike him for that.
He now produces the cheap compilation cd's that you see for a couple of quid on the cheap cd stall at the market, the stall that alwats has Flannigan and Allen playing, or some really poo country and western song...."I threw my dog across the yard because mu wife don't like me"......

The problem with the eighties is although it shaped a lot of the electronica that we have now, it also spawned some of the biggest S**t ever, Tight Fit any one, perhaps Black Lace.....?, Russ bloody Abbott???????
