Memory pool

So what makes a song from this era important? I could argue that all songs are sublime compositions or that the videos are ground breaking, but it wouldn't be true. Closer to the truth would be: "because I think so".

Get your daily 80's fix and, if you like, share some of your memories with the rest of us.


See you!

P.S. In case you have any of the videos on the list in a decent quality, I
would appreciate if you get in touch with me.

Roxy Music - Avalon

Year: 1982




I love the pulsating soprano at the end of Roxy Music's mega hit Avalon. The video features the ever elegant Bryan Ferry as seducer as well as falconeer. I wish I was that talented too! But I guess I have to settle for seducer. The ravishing woman in the video...I wonder who she is.

(edit: According to web sources she is Sophie Ward, British actress)
