Join us on a musical journey as the 80s mixtaper dives deep into the iconic sounds and hidden gems of the early 1980s. In this episode, we explore the dazzling twilight of the disco era with Bobby Thurston's infectious track, "Check Out the Groove." Discover why Thurston, a master of disco-funk fusion, remains a revered figure among funk and soul enthusiasts.
Our journey continues through the ska revival with The Selector's poignant "Missing Words," as we delve into its politically charged context and enduring appeal. Then, sway to Dr. Hook's "Sexy Eyes," a smooth offering from the apex of the Yacht Rock era, as we reflect on its place at the crossroads of 70s charm and 80s exuberance.
Feel the adrenaline rush with Judas Priest's "Living After Midnight," a heavy metal anthem that defined a generation eager to party beyond the confines of a nine-to-five existence. Immerse yourself in the prog rock brilliance of Sky's "Toccata," a reimagining of Bach's masterpiece with an electrifying twist. We introduce the 80s starlet Sheena Easton with "Modern Girl", a hit second time around and we end with some post-punk with the Undertones and their snarky delight "My Perfect Cousin".
Tune in for a riveting exploration of the era's groundbreaking sounds, from disco-defying beats to the vibrant ska scene, heavy metal powerhouses, and the classically infused rock of the 80s. Don't miss this eclectic celebration of musical artistry and cultural milestones!
