Comment:

Volume 3 of the "real 80's" (Mr. Fundak's title there) series. On this one, I actually included a CDR song ("Chewing Gum Wrapper") as it was only ever released on vinyl and I actually *purchased* that... Otherwise, not much to report here. I'm hoping that I haven't used "Peach Kelli Pop" on a previous mix, as I've attempted to avoid that (hence no "Headstart for Happiness" by the Style Council or no "It's You" by the Milkshakes on volume 2).

This looks swell Mr. Conroy. I don't see any glaring omissions, and you kicked it off with what could possibly be my favorite song of the 80s. Looking forward to XYZ.

Thanks, folks. :-) And Brandt, I really, really hope that you don't think I'm attempting to "upstage" you; I just thought that your idea was worth exploring, as I was curious to see where I'd wind up by attempting something similar.
