    This was a great single from the London New Wave/Synth band Talk Talk's album of the same name...

    Everything but the Girl's debut LP, Eden is effortlessly cool sounding and features the distinctive vocals of Tracy Thorn of course...

    Once Upon a Time in America is still one of my favourite films and the score from Ennio Morricone is so evocative...

    Really got into Van the Man after seeing him live around this time, he has so much soul for a white man!...

    Also from 1984 this beauty from Roy Ayres. If this does not get your body funking around, then nothing Will.

    1984 and The Pogues debut with Red Roses for Me.This was the 2nd single release from it which, for me, typifies them.

    I became aware of the new Indie label, Creation Records, which boss Alan McGee started as an alternative to the all consuming Synth Pop from the major labels at the time, by producing guitar driven new music. He has been described as the man that saved Rock & Roll and launched the careers of Jesus & The Mary Chain, Oasis, Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine and resurrecting Bob Mould with Sugar.
    This is one from his own band at the time...



    More from Creation through the week.

    And talking of career resurrections, they don't come more dramatic that Tina Turner's, who was almost penniless after she finally got the courage to leave Ike.
    Her comeback album, Private Dancer was a massive hit...

    I've loved Ian McNabb's songwriting and work since I heard this single from the following year's album, The Small Price of a Bicycle...

    Another Scouse band, The Lotus Eaters released a nice selection of jangly songs on their debut album, No Sense of Sin..

    And here's the hat-trick of Mersey groups with Frankie Goes to Hollywood, who were without doubt the biggest act of the year with 3 successive #1 UK singles and a massive hit album, Welcome to the Pleasuredome. This song would probably have been the Xmas chart topper had it not been for a certain charity record coming along!...

    Loved the lotus eaters

    This reminds me of first year at college (a year after it’s release)

    I'm probably a year late but I like Paul McCartney's new album. 1963 I wanna hold your hand. 2017 things have moved on!
