Spandau Ballet, Adam Ant, Visage, Thompson Twins, Wham....all that stuff and I am not ashamed to admit it! These bands had great musicianship. Look at the first ABC album. I read a story about how Martin Fry recorded it, and the high level of attention to detail that he employed, how he would have a sax part play 30 takes just to get it perfect. Another great band was Franky Goes to hollywood. The production on thier first album was by Trevor Horn (English producer and former singer for YES) Pop, in our day, was the bomb. It was smart music, danceable music..and just plain fun music! Compared to the LINKIN PARK and AUDOSLAVE(good bands that I also like a bit)this music had class. I like what V-girl said in her first reply, about how people were more fashion conscious back then. Kind of like the retro-lounge culture a lot of us are into now!
