Bad Religion, The B-52’s, Buffalo Tom and “Super Bon Bon” from Soul Coughing in this set along with STP, U2 and 311. Plus, a proper Buzzcocks tune for the late Pete Shelley.
Leading with a track from Nirvana’s “Nevermind” released 27 years ago, UK imports (Oasis, The English Beat, James), solid ska horns (Goldfinger, Less Than Jake) and a classic shredder from Hum make up this set of retro goods.
“You’ll never look at music the same way again” said VJ Mark Goodman when MTV launched 37 years ago this week (8.1.81) with videos from The Buggles, Split Enz, The Pretenders, Talking Heads and The Vapors.
