Open-minded inclusive Kiwi, record collecting husband, father, space nerd. Fashionably (?) stuck in 1985.

Fact ! Fitted sheets are only ever folded once. After they leave the factory they can never return to that state.

Sly and Robbie thankfully helped Grace Jones move away from the disco albums of the 70’s. The 1980 Warm Leatherette sounded new wave with a bit of reggae. Timeless music.

The beautifully weird Tin Drum from Japan. David Sylvian stretching New Romantic pop to the edges. It’s always confused me why Mau appears in the top left ?

J Giles Band. Freeze Frame a great rock album with new wave tones. After 10 albums this one was a major hit in 1982 thx to MTV friendly songs Freeze Frame and Centerfold.

Totally of its brief moment in time. Doubt from Jesus Jones, a bit metal, a bit techno a bit bonkers.

Mixing in dance beats. Honey’s Dead twisted the guitars with some harder lyrics over the top of the drums sounding like Jesus Jones being a grunge band.

Drum machine and synth bass lines. Down to the Reid brothers and their guitars! The simplicity really works. Love this side of Jesus and Mary Chain. Automatic had some great songs, Pixies cover of Head On is awesome 🤩

The perfectly placed font that lacks any abrasion from actually being on the sole of a shoe says fake. Still tacky despite this.

1988 Sidewalking tour made it to Aotearoa NZ. Sammy’s Night Club in Ōtepoti Dunedin was the venue. Support band Straitjacket Fits ripped it up that night too. I’d just turned 18 and managed to wriggle my way into the licensed venue. My first international band. 🤩

Judas Priest synth heavy Turbo. Is it metal? Goth? Dark wave? Glam? Dunno but Turbo Lover is a banging song.

It’s Bigger Than Both Of Us. A brilliant 79 to 82 Aotearoa NZ comp of local punk and post punk bands. There was an explosion of talent around this time captured on this epic Propeller records double album.

Breaking away from Generation X Billy Idol delivered a new wave gem. Debut album full of energy, sing along tunes and the guitars of Steve Stevens.

12” Baby You’re So Strange. Getting way more produced now. Lost interest in Icehouse after this. Kinda lost their sparkle for me.

Inxs little brother Icehouse was meanwhile making crafty pop records. Sidewalk is a slick 80’s work with subtle guitar and starring the Fairlight CMI and drum programs. .

85’s Listen Like Thieves was another step up for Inxs. Bigger drums, more guitars, consistent song writing. Lead single What You Need set the tone and broke the US market open. Really enjoyable album.
