I think it was only available in Japan as a reissue for a long time.. but I would recommend it..you can stream it all on Spotify or most of the tracks are available on youtube.
The 82 post mod look. Thats where it was at. All about the scooters and northern. Clothes were for girls

Always a bit of fun...
The B-52s - Love Shack

Sort of makes me proud to be a Georgian.
Well in WM...Pete T's Rough Boys. Great tune I'd forgotten about. This is the US video, the British one doesn't seem to be on YT. Great scooter rally footage on the UK version I recall.

It's that 80s vibe that's got me feeling all tingly this morning:

Propaganda - Duel
I remember this was very popular with the university types, don't believe the hype they were all into Joy Division, that's just revisionism. Trust me, they were all into American-extended-rock:

Toto - Africa
I hope it's not because of the censorship issue Worried Man, because that was definitely not my intent.
I posted it as a fine example of 80s video art, albeit tempered with the fact the lead singer looks like a member of the undead and may sink his teeth into you and drain a quart of plasma before prancing on where fashions sits......
When it comes to songs about puttin' on the ritz, this is a little more my speed.
ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man

And another quintessential '80s rock vid. Dig the kid's '64 Ford F100 as he gives chase.
