[kj] So 80s

[Brendan Quinn]

I’ve been bollocked for Queen, ELO, Manic Street Preachers and Blind
Melon…think I tried to mention Grant Lee Buffalo once but not sure if the
email got through. Anyway, that wasn’t the full extent the confession could
have gone, but I’ll leave that for, um never :-)

 

I mean Olly was taking the piss before but I used to quite like Escape Club,
well one track at least, The Firm I dunno but it can’t be too bad if it’s
got Jimmy Page in it, and I know that myself and at least one other Gatherer
liked Holding Back the Years (although in general I can’t stand Hucknall).

 

I resigned myself to never having street cred years ago so it’s no loss ;)

I’ll stick my neck right out here and confess to loving loads of 80s pop.  9
of my top 10 favourite songs are 80s songs (I discovered that when my dad in
NZ asked me to write him a list).  But I’m hardly stuck in the past, though.

 

The majority of 80s pop is awful – most pop from any decade is shite (look
at the 70s!).  But I love loads of it - Depeche Mode, Tears For Fears, Human
League (pre-84).  I saw Yazoo live on Saturday night and was just expecting
some nostalgic tinkly synthpop.  But I was floored by it.  Best sounding gig
I’ve been to.  It was seriously funky disco – and there’s nowt wrong with
that.

 

Should I get my coat?

Yes, some of the dance stuff was very, very cool (especially the Orb)!
