Defenders Of The Faith by Judas Priest. This and Screaming are my most memorable Priest albums. Others were better, but I was a young teenager when these two weapons came out. LOVE IT!

My favourite song off this album is Love Bites. NOT to be confused with a similarly titled Def Leppard song. Priest's version gives me chills! It's killer!

Skid Row's debut album from 1989. There's even a song about me on it! (18 and Life). Great band, wrong time. Sorry guys!

the debut album by Lee Aaron originally called The Lee Aaron Project. I once got to hold Lee Aaron's hand and walk her to the stage during her album release party for Bodyrock. Good times! Didn't wash that hand for 3 years...!

Creatures Of The Night by KISS. This is a great album. I basically love anything that Paul Stanley sings!

King Kobra's Ready To Strike. The lead vocals of Marcie Free are just fantastic! And hearing Carmine Appice on the drums is always a joy!

Piece of Mind by Iron Maiden. And accompanying the music is a pint of Trooper beer! Now this is a great evening!

Diver Down by Van Halen. Eddie was a massive influence in my teenage years - he's the reason I picked up the guitar! RIP Eddie!

When you thinking of crackly VHS film grain and bright neon? That’s really the early 90s. Not so much the 80s at all.

And yes, there was a fair bit of electronic synth driven music. But pop culture wise? 80s Britain had lot of two tone. A lot of reggae. A h lot of Ska. A lot of bluesy pretentious saxophone driven music. And good god, spare us all from all the Stock, Aitken and Waterman…

It was a lot more diverse than people seem to be remembering it.

Brown. Grey. Green. Red.

Very occasionally? Navy blue.

80s Britain was the colour palette over a painfully overcast day.

Part of what added a lot of the brown into that colour palette? Was wood panelling. Everywhere. Even TVs and radios were covered in the stuff.

Folks, forget the neon. Forget the pinks and blues.

I don’t think I can adequately convey just how Briwn the early 80s was. And Beige. Seriously, looking back at 80s film and TV you would be forgiven for wondering if blue had been removed from the colour palette entirely. Plenty Red. Plenty Green. Very little blue.

And certainly never *bright* blue. Where you *had* neon signs they were mostly red or green.

I’ve been sliding back down that 80s advertising rabbit hole on YouTube again. It got me thinking.

We have been going through something of an 80s revival in the past few years (kicked off by the likes of Stranger Things). And when we see people embracing this aesthetic it’s generally very bright. Lots of neon. Pinks and blues. A loud colourful electronic synth-wave utopia.

As a guy who grew up through the early 80s, reader? I have some bad news for you…
