Heart and Soul from the 1983 LP Sports, which proved to be their breakthrough album (they still exist today, btw). But Jesus Christ Almighty, how
eighties videos suck.
The Clash with Rock the casbah. From the album Combat Rock (1982), a successfull but also rather commercial album.
Needless to say, my favorite line is 'Drop your bombs between the minarets'. Lead man Joe Strummer (vocals, guitar) died far too early in 2002 of a heart attack, aged 50. His band had already broken up in 1985, after only 9 years of existence. Even so, The Clash were a highly influential punk band.
1982. Londoner Gary Numan, for some time known as the King of Electronic Pop, with Music for Chameleons.
Dunno if you ever heard or saw Numan. Despite his somewhat ghey appearance, at least in his heyday, the man reportedly slept with 500 vhimen. At some point, he married a member of his fan club, a certain Gemma O'Neill, with whom he has three children. Also, he seems to be an accomplished stunt pilot.
That's all for today. Nite, and may the farce be with you.
MFBB.
