80s rave

Post by Jerry Dragon »

Had an 80s new wave rave in the basement. Cranked up the ole stereo and cranked up the PSG. It was fun playing the PSG along with the likes of Duran Duran and the Thompson Twins. Lots of songs in minor keys. "Hungry like the Wolf" lends itself well to the PSG, the Thompson Twins even better.

I think steel guitar could be a nice addition to a bit of Tears for Fears

Now I really want to hear PSG on Depeche Mode and New Order
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous; praise is meet for the upright. Give praise to the Lord with the harp, chant unto Him with the ten-stringed psaltery. Sing unto Him a new song, chant well unto Him with jubilation. For the word of the Lord is true, and all His works are in faithfulness. The Lord loveth mercy and judgement; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
- Psalm 33:1-5

I have to go through my collection. I think I have a CD of theirs. I never really played any country to any extent.

I never got into VH. By the time they came out I was married with two kids. I couldn't relate anymore.
