Re: Totally Radical! The All Encompassing Thread of 80s Awesomeness

Is this thread celebrating music released in the 80s by bands/artists that started out in the 60s/70s only or celebrating all music released in the 80s? Celebrating anything released between 1/1/80 and 12/31/89. Hello, Not all music released from 1/1/80 and 12/31/89 should be celebrated - in fact, ...
