80's Geek Alert (me and my trip to the pawn shop)

Just wanted to share my wonderful day off yesterday with all of you 80's & 90's geeksters. I went the local pawn shop and found the cds that were $2 each (buy 4, get one free) so every 5th one was free. Had a blast. Got some hot tiles:

Pretty Poison - Catch Me I'm Falling
Stacy Lattisaw - Sixteen & Personal Attention (had no idea this one had 4 tracks written and produced by Brownmark)
Alexander O'Neal - All Mixed Up & All True Man
Jasmine Guy - Try Me cd maxi single
Nick Scotti - just got this one because it had a track produced by Madonna and has her on backing vocals
Jackie Jackson - Be the One

and others:
Milli Vanilli
Zhane
Slaughter
Corey Hart
Georgio
Debbie Gibson
Tommy Shaw
Meli sa Morgan
Jennifer Holiday
Sybil
Kiara
Sylvester
Evelyn Champagne King
Lisa Lisa & the Cult jam
Rick Astley
the Good Girls
Today
Lo-Key
5 Star
Night Ranger
Expose
Tyler Collins
Jamie Principle
Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
Grease 2
Culture Club
Jane Child

Very cool. The music u got is the only shit I really bother to hear anymore.


Lokey were a good rnb group. A few may remember "i got a thang 4 ya". Some good slow jams on that one.

Iam surprised u didn't find Joe public?

"u got to live and learn" cool

Yeah older brother and sister had alot of this sorta music. Plus, even in UK, u can find these USA acts. I havn't always just liked this music, but now I do. I really only like the disposable stuff like this now. I cant be bothered with grundge or more serious hiphop. Maybe aim shallow, but there u go lol

I don't like most of the stuff out now so i am going back in time and its better than most stuff out. Sometimes you have to go backward tog go forward!

Now, where is that kajagoogoo cd?
