80s Music Exposed

Chris and Henry drag five albums from every month of the 1980s back into the light. Blockbusters, cult classics, sacred cows, and dollar-bin disasters - what still hits, what aged like milk, and what the hell were they thinking?

We love this music.
That doesn’t mean it gets away with everything.
