This episode covers my specific memory of 1980, the start of a brand-new decade. For me, that year of music was synonymous with going to the roller rinks in Scarborough and throwing down what you had on wheels (if you could).
Do you remember the funky skate, the moonlight skate, or "shoot-the-duck"? This was also a pinnacle year for what is now known as 'old school funk' as well as the surging growth of rap music. It was a great time to be young with great friends and most of all fantastic memorable music.

This is my 1980.

Remember when music was Music!
