Subject: What cool 80s thing have you purchased recently?

Written By: ChuckyG on 4/8/2001 at 2:53 p.m.

I got three cool music video tapes at the flea market this morning.. Dire Straits Brothers in Arms, Mr. Mister, and Kajagoogoo.. I love Video 45's.. I passed on a making of David Bowie's Blue Jeans.. but I'll probably grab it from the dealer next time..

I also got two videos of the Police this week from Amazon marketplace.. some Live concert footage of their biggest hits, and the video collection.. I've been wanting to see "King of Pain" for ages...

Thanks to you Chucky...I bought 2 new CDs of The Chameleons. The first one I bought was "Strange Times" and it kicks butt!!!

I was trying to find out who sang a song that haunted me...and you knew it. I then went out found them and I am kicking myself for not knowing them in the 80s! What a great band! Thanks Chucky! exairman

I don't know if this counts, but while I was down in Puerto Nuevo (Mexico), I bought one of those beeping keychains (you know, the ones you whistle to and they beep back?). I haven't seen those here in ages (and I think this is a product of the 80s).
