Default A Blast From The Past

I appreciate that the sites general demographic is under 30 but there are a few of us over 30, who maybe listen to a lot of music that has nostalgic value or has just been generally forgotten. Like finding a dusty old vinyl in the attic, what have you been delving into retrospectively speaking and renewing your love for?

AC/DC.


Sure after 1985 most of their output was patchy but damn it I have been listening to For Those About To Rock and Dirty Deeds and I forgot just how good they were. Primal rock N roll at it's best.

Inject The Venom. That guitar solo that kicks in just after the 2 minute mark. The simple but effective production.


Rocker. What more can I say? It does what it says on the tin.


Blondie.


A band that never has settled into any particular niche, yet they have produced some of the catchiest three minute tracks ever. A mish mash of pop, punk, new wave,disco, rap and even cod reggae has not dented my admiration for the band and Deborah Harry is still a sex bomb and oozes charisma.


Detroit 442. An early sub punk classic that you probably have'nt heard.


Picture This. Pop perfection.



Who is floating your boat then?
