pt 5: 80's synth nightmare

At the end of a very long and winding road, we've reached the fifth and final part of 'The history of popular music through the medium of second hand vinyl'

The 80's synth pop nighmare will cover all manner of music from 1984-1990 olus perhaps a couple of 90s tunes thrown in for good measure. Expect all three kinds of music; Stock, Aitken AND Waterman, as well as a smattering of classier fair and - if Oxfam have got their act together - a wee mystery bag to get your blood flowing.
