Just when Steve has exhausted his knowledge on films/music from 60's/70's, get ready for it ALL OVER AGAIN with the 80's!!!!!!! Willing to bet within 6 weeks, Steve 're-discovers' the 90's

For me the 80's were full of spastic Stock , Akin , and Waterman records

Jesus they just churned out gay synth pop tunes !

it was like every thing they touched they turned into plastic shite !

Aswad ...an amazing Reggae band ...... 15 mins in the Waterman studio

and all their cred was pissed away .......!

I was thinking ....... i bet Steve56 wore 'Flares' in the mid 80's !

for me at the end of 79 i packed them away and from then on the Trousers i wore went like this.........

80-82 82-84 85-87 88-90
Farrahs ...... Waffles .......501's ..........black 501's.......

so how would you sum up the 80's in Trousers ?
