Title: 14 Dec 2010: it's... 1979
Post by: RGMike on December 13, 2010, 06:49:13 PM: Seems like we were just there, but it's been 6 weeks. No complaints here. I have a 10:00 meeting, so of course AL will probably play one of my New Wave suggestions:

Tourists, "I Only Wanna Be With You"
Shoes, "Too Late"
Rachel Sweet, anything from her debut.

Post by: Big Fingers McGee on December 13, 2010, 08:49:25 PM: "Slap And Tickle" by Squeeze plus the Patti Smith version of "Dancing Barefoot".

And my WTF selection is by the Stranglers. Can't go wrong with Britpop!

Post by: sundaygal on December 13, 2010, 09:10:11 PM: I think my whole list is a WTF. Eh, what else is new?
The Skids, Shalamar, The Jam & Meat Loaf (inspired by all this talk about Jim Steinman...)

You can even construct a funny sentence with the bands above! Haha

Pretty sure Turning Japanese was from '80, so we're safe for today anyway.

hee hee, it's hard to believe the dirtbag stoner aesthetic that ruled their Cover Of The Rolling Stone (esp as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJu6Up9w2Hc) would give way to a pretty successful MOR pop song craftiness.
