This month we are wallowing in some neon-tinged nostalgia, celebrating that oh-so-garish and oh-so-wonderful of decades, the 1980s – a time of change, a time of new technology, a time of new scenes, new bands and, frankly, some amazing music.
We look at the decade’s defining albums, revisit some of the scenes and movements, and talk to various artists who lived to tell the tale, including Iron Maiden, Girlschool, Alice Cooper, Tigertailz, Thor and J Mascis. And, of course, we spend some time exploring Sunset Strip.
