Shocked to hear of the passing, of the other half of Soft Cell, David Ball, aged just 66. That debut from 81, Non Stop Erotic Cabaret, is still brilliant. But it's the single they released a year later 'Torch' which I think is one of the best pop records ever.

RIP

The passing of Ace, on Thursday, has really kicked me in the head. Similar feelings with Dave Greenfield. I think these people, are with you, a long time in life, the Music, and it feels a hell of an empty place without them. Grateful to have lived in a world with them ❤️

Glad I managed to stay awake, for another fine show. Lenses out, and now ready for bed. #sotn Dire Straits, closely by Visage. Have a lovely week all. See you next Sunday. Night #forgotten80s

John Isley, playing an open E note on the Bass, towards the end of the song. Sounds so simple, but the atmosphere it makes in the song is sublime #forgotten80s

What a magnificent noise Private Investigations is. September 82 at it's finest. #sotn #forgotten80s

At least with him being on my arm, and the original promo solo album, framed poster in my flat, he's never too far away.

35 Years ago this evening. Look at the size of that ticket! From the old 'Mike Lloyd Megastore site, by the man on the horse, in Wolverhampton. Maiden, were promoting their 'No Prayer For The Dying' album which I'd bought a few days earlier. Fabulous gig. Where has the time gone?

Poppy ❤️ I adore her every day

Happy heavenly Birthday, Graham Simpson. His playing on the Roxy debut album, still leaves me mesmerised. Such a huge influence.

October 13th 1943 - April 17th 2012

Another top show. Thank you Matthew Rudd, for playing PHD, which along with my beloved Stranglers, should have been #sotn but I'm passing them over this evening for Bitter Fruit. Thanks for the fine company. Have a great week. See you next Sunday. Night #forgotten80s

Bitter Fruit is fantastic. Criminal it wasn't a bigger hit. #forgotten80s

Lay Your Hands On Me is a stone cold certified banger. For those not listening, I'm referring to The Thompson Twins, and not Bon Jovi #forgotten80s

I would say Overkill is my fave from Men At Work. Fab #forgotten80s
