Great to see you come back with all these amazing Albums . 40 years of innovative music!
Thank you so much! We have to give props to the music of 1984 - just amazing! There’s more Electro from this year that I no longer have in my collection; regrettably sold on EBay many years ago. Prices have soared & not affordable anymore. Sometimes you might get lucky in the record store & pull out a collectible Old School jam from the dusty bins. That’s what makes it so much FUN & gratifying. Appreciate you coming onboard & stay tuned for the next video.
Great job as always. Thank you.
Thanks again! Part 2 is coming up next; hopefully some more goodies for your 80’s crave.
Nice selection, Jam On Revenge is one of my all time fav albums, Tyrone Brunson is great and Ice T is in the music video
Thanks for your wonderful comment; especially from the Doctor himself. I’ve watched many of your videos throughout the years - very rare gems from the 80’s. Yes Indeed! Jam on Revenge is an LP that I was so fascinated with upon its release in ‘84. I had sold it in my teens, and regained it later when I started collecting again at 30ish. Tyrone Brunson is another artist that I remember going to Wal-Mart & purchasing the 45’s; (I think) $1.45 was the purchase price back in the day. Please check out my next video just posted. Thanks again for watching!
My 80’s friend, I will certainly follow your recommendations. It’s great to be guided through the 80’s movies & soundtracks that were spawned. I’m ready to take another journey (or a deeper dive) into the 80’s realm of historic music. The list is growing and I really appreciate your contribution of knowledge. I’ve decided to post another video - Part 4 of 1984, there’s more to share!
Great showcase on 1984! The Fixx phantoms I play quite a bit. Less cities more moving people a top three Fixx song for me.
Just love the music of 1984! Out of The Fixx LP’s that I have, Phantoms has the least play; but your comment inspires me play the entire album once again for songs you enjoy. Appreciate the recommendation. A unique artist with their own sound. Thanks again!
I was part of a Dj crew in the 80's . I still have most of the records you are showing. The Nucleus album cover is a classic. It's similar in style to the Africa Bambaataa Renegades of Funk cover.
Check out Mantronix from the same time period.
Awesome collection and thanks for sharing.
Wow! I can only imagine the vibe in the DJ booth behind the “wheels of Steel” spinning the those iconic pieces of wax history. When I was 1st introduced to the “Renegades of Funk” vinyl in my local record store back in ‘83, I was just blown away by the artistry of the pictured jacket. Didn’t have to listen to it in the store; back then, they would play the record for you before the purchase. I really miss those times; taking chances - blind buy if you will. The Newcleus tracks I knew, so I knew the LP would be top notch. Yeah, the jacket alone would get you to buy. Mantronix: I have “Needle to the Groove” vinyl plus their CD’s. Great artist - love their style. Hope we can talk again, & thanks for your comment; of course, your dedication to the 80’s grooves!
@@klassicjam record shopping was the same for me. The stores had a Dj setup and would play a record for you to listen to before purchase. I'm in Toronto and there were a few stores that would import U.S. and U.K. records. One store, owned by two brothers , would have one brother drive to NYC each week to pick up the latest "wax". Every weekend was like a race to get to the store before the latest hot traxx sold out.
Remember hearing Mantronix Needle to the Groove for the first time such a great tune plus loved the graffiti artwork on the cover PS Mantronix was all over the place that time with Just-Ice and Joyce Sims plus others
@@Eyerex the 80's Hip Hop/rap culture was awesome. Graffiti, B boys, B girls with name plate belt buckles, Kangols, Cazels, rope chains, shell toes and Clydes, track suits, Dj battles, break dancing, ghetto blasters, rec hall dances. The younger generations missed out.
Joyce Sims tracks could pack the dance floor guaranteed.

These are 2 great books from that time. I still have them 84 and 87.
Check out Terri Nunn in the 1978 disco film Thank God It’s Friday.
I remember DJs segueing Let The Music Play into Give Me Tonight because they were so similar - another 12” single to seek out from that album is My Heart’s Divided.
I’m waiting for you to present 12” singles from The Comsat Angels. Their big song is “I’m Falling.” It is featured in the film Real Genius with Val Kilmer.
1984 was my first year collecting 12” singles. I should’ve been collecting since 1976. But, I simply didn’t know they existed until 1984.
