Robert's house was not harmed in the making of this video
In 1982 I became 18 yrs old and was knee deep into what we called these days, post-punk. And still 6 albums of 1982 belongs to my all time favourites like Pornography by the Cure , 13.13 by Lydia Lunch, Only Theatre of Pain by Christian Death, Junkyard by the Birthday Party, Miami by the Gun Club and If I Die, I Die by the Virgin Prunes. But in 1982 also my love of country music started cause my mom gets an compilation, A Touch of Country, for her birthday in 82 (and I still own the record with handwritten birthday date and congrats on the cover) and very soon that record was more on my turntable then on my parents . Charlie Rich, Johnny Cash, Dolly and Porter, Tammy Wynette they were all on it. So music wise, 1982 was a good year for me. And thats what I like when you discuss a year especially late 70s and the 80s ...cause it brings back memories.😊❤
Lydia Lunch! Fantastic album. Good call BB
I graduated from high school in 1982, and was leaving behind mainstream rock and pop for punk and new wave. To add to your list, I was also listening to the Gun Club's 'Miami', Dead Kennedys 'Plastic Surgery Disaster', 'England Settlement' by XTC, Killing Joke 'Revelation', and Front 242 'Geography'.
Corrections: the first U.S. CD release of Prince’s 1999 had Automatic, it didn’t have D.M.S.R.
The music I was listening to in 1982 was mostly radio stuff; Men at Work, Pat Benatar, MJ, Toni Basil, Adam Ant, the Motels, Flock of Seagulls, Chicago, Billy Idol, Prince, Missing Persons, Culture Club, Hall & Oates. Later I would start listening to U2, Yazoo, Oingo Boingo, INXS, the B-52s, Talk Talk, Depeche Mode, Psychedelic Furs. I loved The Safety Dance but I didn’t get the album until much later, and I quite enjoy it. And I’m sorry, but I hate that Pass the Dutchie song.

My favorite album of 1982 is Prince and the Revolution-1999
Richard. Your lists are always so spot on with my taste. Great to see some propper hardcore punk on the channel with Bad Brains. The album was released in 1982 but only on cassette. The vinyl release came years later. Great list by all you guys as always,
Richard rocks !!!
My collection is 1982 deficient. Thanks for steering me toward titles worthy of having. This is a priceless video! Respect!
You never know what’s not on your music radar, that’s why these are great because I always come away with appreciation of albums I previously didn’t have connections or memories to link to. I have some sort of contextual vantage point to see them through the eyes of people who know about them
Right??!! This is my favorite series we do
@@hubtunes9607 yarrrrgg!!!
My favorite album of 1982 is The Time “What Time Is It?” ……it’s the best Prince record that isn’t officially credited as a Prince record
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Speaking of video game craze, I have this Donkey Kong record ( I think came out in '83) its so corny but its catchy af
Great video, thanks. Huge REM fan here, and Chronic Town is my favorite...five incredible tracks. Definitely worth picking up.
I'm fine with Van Halen releasing covers albums, those guys were a great rock band but they aren't exactly Bob Dylan with the songwriting.
I bought the Pac-Man Fever album when I was 12 or 13. All of the other video game songs are even worse.
I was multitasking watching the video so I didn’t see if you guys posted Stray Cats “Built for Speed” which also came out in 82? Just found a pristine used copy and Brian Setzer is incredible!
The song in Fast Times was Raised On Radio. And the reason a movie about teenagers in 1982 had a soundtrack of geezer rock was they were all clients of this guy Irving Azoff, ruining music since the sixties.
Completely forgot about “Far Post” by Robert Plant. Also completely forgot about that Juice Newton video!
That piano on Far Post! Also one of his best vocal performances
@@hubtunes9607 Far Post was the b side of Big Log. Which is a sentence I just wrote.
I like What's That You're Doing w/Stevie Wonder
Hi, nice video. Sad no one mentioned Avalon and New Gold Dream. If you find time, check these albums out from 82. But not Robert, that's nothing for him. Allez Allez-Promises, Fashion-Fabrique, Positive Noise-Change of Heart, The Cut-Silent Movies, China Crisis-Difficult Shapes, Au Pairs-Sense and Sensuality, Perfect Zebras-Mixing With Wildlife, Maximum Joy-Station M.X.J.Y. and The Dance-In Lust and Soul Force (two albums). Greetings P.S. Yes Craig, Hanging Garden is the best.
You are correct, I do not care for the "Avalon" album.
I thought someone would mention Avalon too. Im not a fan of that Roxy era
@@RobertFithen I ment the other ones, but good to know.
I just discovered Fashion. Fun stuff but SUPER eighties.
Yeah, first you need to get used to it. Glad you like it. Greetings

What was that?
Most likely a transformer exploding. Everything is fine. Thanks for asking.
I'm skerrd!!!

FIRST.
1982 was a big year for me. Sophomore in high school, discovered music on my own not influenced by my siblings, had MTV from day one so anything that visually captured my attention was bought so I was all in on the second British Invasion heavily influenced by the New Romantic movement. Kudos to Craig for mentioning Haysi Fantaysee, great album and the members went on to great careers Jeremy Healy has a huge Dj career and Kate Garner is a world renowned
photographer best known for the Lion and the Cobra photo shoot.
