Talk Talk. Fine Young Cannibals. Terence Trent Darby. Or go back a couple of years and Beats International, dub be good to me (tag fly boss walk jam nitty-gritty......)I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

At which point do I bring-up my dusty vinyl copy of........
Now That's What I Call Music
Not even a version number on it as I don't think they had the slightest of scoobies that it was going to go on for 26years (and counting)
A few good'uns in there:
Temptation......Heaven 17
Double Dutch....Malcolm McLaren
Safety Dance....Men Without Hats
Down Under......Men At Work
Fascination.......The Human League
Waterfront........Simple MindsThe older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

Didn't have CD's in those days. Just Vinyl and Tapes. My record player did 45's & 78's too!
Always preferred vinyl as you could change track by jumping up and down on the bedroom floor. Tapes took an age to flick between tracks.
The Sinclair Spectrum had just been just recently been launched with 16k of RAM and you needed a tape cassette player for loading-on and saving stuff off it.
Just gone for a look on my system to see what a 16k file looks like these days:
That's it. The Spectrum couldn't have displayed this image as it was limited to 8 colours.

You had remote control 8)
I remember the Spectrum, and Amstrad, and BBC and all that other stuff and waiting 30 mins to load a program from a tape only for it to crash or for it to be a bunch of yellow pixels that moved around the screen "eating" other coloured pixels....and sitting there for 2 days writing your own game to play
I even remember the launch of CDs, but I love vinyl
Nah, you ain't that old. Now if you start talking about trams, steam trains, planes made of wood and the first time you ever saw a banana....
In fact Mrs RPG has NOW 3 on tape and loves to dance around the house singing along to it...older women
Don't remember much about Summer of '89...... By that time my brain had started down the slippery ageing slope The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

Wasn't a dig - just been thinking about other music from that year.
In fact your post made me dig around for the listing for NTWICM 7, which in turn led me to 14 and 15, which is what inspired the above list. 8)
Had a ZX81 , then a Commodore64
And I still play vinyl - Although my Technics deck has long since been retired, replaced with a Project Debut III know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
