This is a good site if you're looking for 12" club mixes of 80s tracks:

On the subject that @Crazy-Horse started…..

This tune always makes me think of the ( formerly ) insanely hot Jennifer Connolly.

Yes. She resembles a walking skeleton now. Still decent but not a patch on her early 20s.

@Tim For those not yet around in 82, I can't overstate how revolutionary New Gold Dream was at the time. Promised You a Miracle and Glittering Prize were like nothing I had heard before. My favourite and one I still break out regularly practically 40 years later is this one:

@crucial @pakman wow that has brought back some memories. I was in Europe by the 80's but the scene described (and the dreadful fashion in the photos) certainly resonates.

I wrote some reviews for Hot Licks - or at least I thought I did but in 30 years I've not come across anyone who remembered it. Good to know I hadn't just imagined it on an acid trip

Great song for testing out your sound system. When 80s production got it right (e.g. this and Grace Jones) it was awesome. Sadly when it got it wrong (most 80s pop) it is almost unlistenable now.
Same story with every tech leap in music production through history though.

Magazines come and go, but few have the impact and lasting legacy of New Zealand’s Hot Licks. The local monthly magazine helped spark the careers of local bands like Split Enz, Dragon and Waves. Jeremy Templer writes about Hot Licks and working with foun

Wont' be popular here, but I still think this is the best opening to a live set I've seen. Never seen a stadium go from standing to jumping all in one go with such uniformity. Awesome.

Fergie looking hot and slutty and banging out rock better than she ever did with the Black Eyed Peas…..and Slash at his absolute best with his licks and lead playing. What’s not to like in this track ?
