Just came across this podcast yesterday and loving it. I’m just starting episode four and as I was growing up in this decade the music was something else! Also hearing of artists/ groups I’ve never heard of before. Just brilliant and very interesting too👍

Great new episode, gents! Knew all the artists, but not the Fisher-Z(ed) track. My Vapors album is patiently awaiting to be played for #5debutslbums8084. Hope I make it to V! #johnsvinyl

Ps: I forgot to comment on the previous fab episode. Apologies!

Caught up on @bangpodcast.bsky.social - brilliant stuff as ever! Threads! I watched it at the time - never again. Ste summed it all up in the @scarredforlife.bsky.social episode when he said that for years he was convinced he would die in a nuclear war - this is exactly how I felt in 1983-85

@bangpodcast.bsky.social I have a nuclear themed misheard lyric - from Chain Reaction by Diana Ross - 'Tell Eddie Waring there ain't no salvation..'.

Absolutely not with a whimper!
Bang continues to knock it out of the park with each episode and while this milestone is impressive it is a fraction of what this podcast deserves.
Keep up the good work lads!

Continuing the Fs for #5debutalbums8084 with this 1982 slab from Falco (RIP). I first heard “Der Kommissar” as an English cover (After The Fire), but the original in German is better. And the rest of the album is pretty good too. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
