LIST 133 - 17/12/14 (1984 special, part one)


Hello again,


There's one small drawback of changing That Music List to a December season, of course - when doing 10, 20 or 30 year ago retrospectives, the year in question has almost come to an end!


And so it comes to pass that here we have a first collection of songs that are, only just, hailing from 30 years ago this year.  The Run DMC and Anne Clark ones will be familiar to sample spotters; the lead guitarist of Care will look very familiar to Lightning Seeds fans; and Stewart Lee's favourite cabaret act-cum-Foster's Comedy Award winners make an appearance as well.
