    Start of the 80s there was only the same forulatic crap on the radio. To hear anything new you had to buy the album of a band that had a cool cover and hope you liked it.

    That was a big gamble on limited funds and I had a few misses. Radio Active was a tiny beacon of light broadcasting at low power.

    First CD I ever bought was Phil Collins. (Bought a CD player that day and thought we should buy a CD to play on it.)

    Not sure I remember what CD I bought first, but my first record was Double Platinum by Kiss. In my defence, I was 12.

    Phil Collins was a giant among musicians compared to anything Disco which was the nadir of popular music. "Disco sux" about summed it up.

    I find period music of the bikes era helps. I listened to a lot of Supertramp when doing the T125 as it's the oldest stuff I own. Actually if I was to move the record player into the garage i do have a fair bit of Genesis from the early 70s (before they got the drummer to sing). Not sure I could stand much prog-rock these days.
    But its hardly the environment for records with greasy fingers etc.

    I don't think I've listened to the radio deliberately in the last ten years. Garage for old CDs and occasionally tapes, upstairs, Spotify gets me music I often haven't heard from genre's I like.

    When we did the classic TT with the team classic '81 Katana, I put together a playlist from 1980 to '87. We blue toothed it to a decent speaker we had in the paddock awning.
    The theory was that people that were interested in stopping by to check out a bike of that era would also enjoy music from the same era as a backdrop.
    We turned up some absolute gems.

    I'm also disturbed you knew that even existed.

    According to the comments
    Vernon green actually sang "pupptetutes of love" which was also a made-up word - his own - combining "puppets" and "prostitutes."
