Blonde On Blonde - Shut Down (1979)

Well, in the 70s there was no escape from Disco. When I was in my Sex Pistols and Plasmatic days of Punk Rock, I HATED disco. As I got older I started to embrace other types of music instead of my normal Hard Rock, Punk Rock and Heavy Metal. There are still some styles I will never embrace. Extrapolate from what's been posted....Disco is happy and fun, and who doesn't like happy and fun.

Riot - Sword & Tequila (1981)

Our local library had albums we could take out and my dad would soldier through them and record them onto cassette tapes for us. This was one of my selections that I was most proud of as it solidified, in my mind, the transgression into grown up metal music. This was also one of the first songs I learned on guitar.

Advertising - The Lonely Guys (1978)

I've always been a lover of the music out of England from the late 70s. The Power Pop genre is such a happy upbeat musical offering that keeps satisfying. Just heard this one today and thought I would share it.

The Vibrators - Sulphate (1979)

Just found this one today! Another Power Pop gem. I have heard of this band from the UK, but haven't heard too much from them. You should enjoy this

The Vapors - Prisoners (1980)

I can not say enough about these incredible album. New Clear Days is clearly the best Power Pop album I have ever heard in my life. Turning Japanese is the worst song on the album and ruined their chance of being a credible force. If you don't beleive me...,

Toronto - 5035 (1980)

I always loved Holly Woods's (Anne Elizabeth Woods) voice. I thought it was the most amazing powerful female voice in music at the time. I loved her looked, her hair, they way she dressed. It was one of my first female fronted crushes. The first sight and sound I remember was on Mtv, for their video "Your Daddy Don't Know". I immediately purchased their entire musical library. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Madness - It Must Be Love (1981)

What a brilliant song from a brilliant band. So melodic and well produced. One of Madness's best! When this came out I was, meh, okay, I like the two-tone ska stuff better. Madness was a nutty fun band that had that unique sound. When I got older and I embrace more music, this one made the light go on!

Tom Petty - I Need To Know (1978)

Easily my favorite Tom Petty song. The first time I heard this song was from a local cover band named "Smart Aleck". It had a female vocalist and never knew this was a Tom Petty tune until many years after it's release.
