Title: 14 Aug 2013: it's... 1984
Post by: RGMike on August 14, 2013, 09:52:17 AM
presumably '80s or '90s today.

and Gory is excited about some song she's gonna play, so I'm probably right.

'84: nice start with "Time the Avenger" -- BOS1.

I was lucky enough to see the orig lineup in 1982, and after James Honeyman-Scott and Pete Farndon exited the scene (and the Earth), I lost some interest in the band.   My mondegreen for this one: "Tiny Avenger"

Dwight Twilley and his girls.
With a name like that, he should really be a country singer.

Is that Tom Petty helping out on vocals there?

Thompson Twins  "Doctor! Doctor!"

Hmmm... that wasn't the usual album mix.  It might have been from the 1988 greatest hits
release that had different remixes.

Released in 1984, but yes, prior to RR, played only in 1985 sets.

"Miami Vice" theme is from '85 too, no?  as is "Smuggler's Blues"  WTFF?

Miami Vice debuted in the fall of 1984, and Smuggler's Blues was released in June, so
these seem completely appropriate for that year.

I believe you're correct about this.... it's in my collection. IMHO, TT lend themselves to GHC.
