Yeah, 1983 baby!
This week Angela and Paula take a ramble back to 1983, deemed as the most exciting year for music in the 80s, and one that would see the launch of many a future legend. We roll up our sleeves and dig into New Orders 'Blue Monday', the birth of Bananarama and their debut album 'Deep Sea Skiving, Madonna's self titled debut 'Madonna' and the single that would see electronic duo, Eurythmics, propelled to great heights with the release of 'Sweet Dreams (Are made of this).
Our new music hot picks this week are by Cross Wires and KIN.
