Oh wow... We've got different taste.

Let's see... we can add to your "greats" with Huey Lewis and the News... Michael Jackson...

What's wrong with Huey? He was quite the hunk, back in the day.

What's wrong with Huey? He was quite the hunk, back in the day.

I think that he's saying that that they should be included in the top '80s bands, I'm not going to disagree with that, although without searching, I can only think of the Power of Love.

And BTW - as bad as they were, the 80s were still better for fashion than the 70s. And even the worst music from the 80s was better than Disco. Poor little white kids with their parents getting them a 'fro and sending them to school... Pick in hand.

Pinholes in satin shirts, making noise when you walk either because your bell bottoms were brushing or your corduroys were "swishing"...

Gah... I'm glad I wasn't a teen in the 70s.

No, the 80's was by far the worst decade for fashion, horrid stuff, muscle pants, leggings, shoulder pads and over permed hair.

The 70's were cool, blue jeans, hot pants, Belly shirts, maxis, so much better, so much more groovy. The 80's I hated.

 

[Phantasmal]

Me too, and I was never able to fit in because I despised it. I like some 80's Rock, but not that shit. Zepplin is somewhat tolerable but Black Sabbath, jesus, how can anyone who listens to that shit talk about anyone's taste in music? God that is torture. That is torture to me.

Black Sabbath, to me, sounds like cats mating. Bad music. Zeppelin is still awesome.

 

[Phantasmal]

Stevie Nicks is one fine looking witch. Literally.

I hate her voice, I thought she was the least talented of the group. One strange lady.

 

[Phantasmal]

...but that's 70's rock. Both Zeplin and Black Sabbath (at least the original line up with Ozzie) had broken up by 1980 and if you didn't like Led Zeplin or Black Sabbath then you obviously didn't do enough bong hits!!!

I had plenty, still hated BS, now Alice Cooper rocked!

 

[Damocles]

What's wrong with Huey? He was quite the hunk, back in the day.

Nothing, he just wouldn't be in my "greats"... He's in my "just good" stack.

 

[Phantasmal]

Yeah, Madonna. Wearing big crosses or rosaries. Acid-wash jeans, high-top sneakers, bomber jackets.

Ugly, still hate 80's fashion, but I would go back to the 30's and the tailored look, if I had my way!

Damo is too square to be hip.

Alice Cooper is one of my faves as well... I liked how his albums were all stories and his concerts were shows, not just a dude singing.

 

[Damocles]

Damo is too square to be hip.

True that. All square with only round holes around me...

I have the album pictured and still play it. Even my younger son likes it. Check out the playlist, maybe you'll recognize a few more besides Power of Love.

And the cool hats the men wore would be a plus.

 

[Phantasmal]

Santana, I still loveme some Santana, and then Motown!

I don't like heavy metal at all. Zeppelin's okay, not my fave but okay. My older son used this song for a ringtone. I always liked it, too.

It was a play on words, one of Huey's songs is "Too Hip to Be Square"

I didn't care for heavy metal much, either, Bud loved it, I was more into groups like The Moody Blues, James Gang, The Turtles, Vanilla Fudge.

So nasal. Like she always needed a good squirt of Neo-Synephrine.

It is why I liked him, I listen to his radio show. He is still entertaining!
