80's fan here as well. I mainly like '84 on. Some good stuff in there, and obviously the cheese. But atleast it was not the mass produced, assembly line, cookie cutter shit of today.
One of the biggest annoyances is that with the deregulation of radio, and media companies. You have a handful of the Viacom's, and Clear Channel's dictating music. Based ofcourse on their relationships with labels. So a lot of good stuff today with some original thought can't get out through the regular channels.
Unless they are super big underground.
