Foofin' heck, what an album!! (If you're maybe 32-45yo)
Sunday evenings usually see me ripping and downloading music and this'll be on repeat for the next few weeks....
hmv.com: music: Grange Hill: Album: 3cd (2008)
Mostly stonkers, couple of dogs but choc full of classics.
Just had a flick through and even without seeing the track names, most tunes identified (and sung along with
) within a few seconds.
Aaah, nostalgia....

Track 16 surprises me. Its a classic, but I really thought that it had been forgotten...

So do you still play around with 7 inches or does the internet give you what you need

You still hear it occasionally. Still remember them on TOTP
The last track, by contrast, really SHOULD have been forgotten.

I can usually find what i need on YouTube but you can't beat an evening with a selection of shiny black 12 inchers and a nice sharp needle.

Cheestalgia? I'll reserve that term for songs by Kraftwerk, I think.

Tour De France will be my next nostalgic YouTube selection, followed by a bit of Devo and then, maybe, a little more Elvis...

Some excellent tracks on there, but I too am surpsied that "Just Say No" isn't featured. Also, where is Nena's classic "99 luftballons".
Just listening to "Just An Illusion"
Oh dear god no! I've just seen Shakin' Stevens in on there, will have to remove that one from the playlist
It's also good to note that it's the original "Chicken Man" theme tune on there and not one of the remixes from later series.

Just record local radio, I'm sure you'd get most of them.
That playlist reminds me of Fox FM.
