Join Toscano and Chang as they embark on a 2-part show talking about some underrated bands and songs from the 80s. They will reminisce about some lesser-known bands and some well-known bands that had underrated songs. In part 2, they will talk about how some bands that were popular at the time have been forgotten over the years, and how there is still so much great music from the 80s that deserves more recognition.

used cinnamon fire toothpicks to give to the

19
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:49.000
elderly back in the nineteen eighties.
He has even been seen today wearing nothing

20
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:56.560
but vinyl records from Phil Collins and
Peter Satara strapped to his front and his

21
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:01.040
back. We call him the ever
wondrous Chang. Yes it is I Chang.

matter, Tuscano. Oh I am ready.

36
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:27.560
We're going to discuss underrated songs,
underrated groups and artists. Am I

37
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.560
out of my mind? Tuscano?
Are we going that way? This is

38
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.639
not a battle, though, but
in a way, we always battle each

39
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.080
other. It's a lot of fun. But I can't tell you that tonight

40
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.879
is not a battle. It's just
the bands and the songs that we think

41
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:44.400
that we're very, very underrated back
in the eighties. And of course I

42
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:46.879
can't tell you this that although this
is not a battle, chang, you're

43
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:52.680
going to dislike a lot of the
bands and the songs that I am going

44
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:58.000
to bring tonight. Why why do
you why? Why? Why? Why?

45
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:02.960
Why? Ask why my body tend
to fry my ass on to hate?

46
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:06.439
Well? Because why do you true
ring up that I am the first

47
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.520
one to hate? How dare you? This is the one and only back

48
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:13.360
to the eighties radio. Stick around, because when we come back, the

49
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.439
fight of a lifetime begins. Bring
more. I will hate it all.

50
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:23.079
It certainly is a big bons,
a very big fun big. It's a

51
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:28.439
very big, fluffy fun. Where's
the beef? Some hamburger places give you

52
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.519
a lot less beef and a lot
of bun Where's the bee? Aindys weave

53
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:35.319
a hamburger we modestly call the single
and Wendy's seele has more beef than the

54
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:41.319
whopper or Big Macwen? Did you
get more beal and less bun? Hey?

55
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:46.079
I don't think you want something better? Your windy is kind of people.

56
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:50.480
Today we are going to be discussing
the bands that we think we're a

57
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:55.959
little or a lot underrated, and
also some of the songs and chang.

58
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:59.879
I want you to go first,
because I want you to not always say

59
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.439
that I don't let you go first
and go ahead it once again, remember

60
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:08.720
this is not a battle. But
let me guess you're gonna choose a metal

61
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:14.639
band. No. The first band
that I think really to heart is underrated

62
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:21.120
in so many levels has got to
be the band Missing Persons with Dale Bosio.

63
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:26.680
Oh and I thought that band was
underrated. You know what, she

64
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:30.560
came out Flamboy. As a matter
of fact, Madonna stole her style of

65
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:35.040
the Missing Persons Walking in La It
was a pop song, but if you

66
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:41.560
listen to it and you break the
song down instrumentally wise, it's badass.

67
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:45.639
Her husband played the drums. Dude, that's a band to me that was

68
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:53.319
way underrated. And because of the
Yes video killed the Radio Please by MTV,

69
00:05:54.519 --> 00:06:02.160
Missing Persons had their opportunity to make
it visually, but musically instrumentally they

70
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:05.399
were taken for granted. Well,
I can tell you this and just start

71
00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:09.800
it off. Because you said Missing
Persons, I'm going to start it off

72
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:15.720
with a Scottish rock band formed in
Glasgow in nineteen seventy seven. Keep it

73
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:19.600
in mind they started off as a
rock band and ended up not as a

74
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:24.920
rock band. And they were pretty
much known for a couple of their songs,

75
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:27.079
but one of them in particular,
the one that We're Gonna play today.

76
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.399
They were on the top of the
Billboard Hot one hundred. They released

77
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:36.560
a string of hit singles, becoming
best known internationally for the following song and

78
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:43.240
I'm talking about Simple Minds and the
song We're Gonna hear tonight after Chang song

79
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.519
is Don't You Forget About Me?
From nineteen eighty five Here on the one

80
00:06:47.519 --> 00:07:06.759
and only back to the eighties radio, who's the head that's the baddest?

81
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:13.399
Trying to focus on it? Bucking
she did about the train in on the

82
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:18.839
bar, just a cantbot o the
band all that just to Serra sand walk

84
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:33.839
lane? Walking in the land.
Nobody wants the lay I don't don't do

87
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:47.639

movie because the walking in a lane,

88

119
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:19.799
and only back to the eighties Radio
Tuscano and chang with you. Thank you

120
00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:23.960
for joining us as we talk about
the bands and the songs that were underrated

121
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.799
back in the nineteen eighties. You
just heard walking in La and don't you

122
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:33.720
forget about me? I know that
you've got a band coming up, and

123
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:37.559
let me guess. Oh my gosh, it's a metal band. Oh man,

124
00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:41.680
come on, you're you're a Liker
of the rock and roll and I'm

125
00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:45.400
talking about none other than Tesla.
Now Tesla, I have a backstory to

126
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:53.279
Tesla. I got to see Tesla
at the Universal Amphitheater backstage passes, where

127
00:17:53.359 --> 00:18:00.039
I sat with Rodney James Deal,
I sat with Rudy Sarzo. I also

128
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:07.480
sat with the whole band of Tesla. I sat with Oh yes, Ricky

129
00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:15.279
Rackman, Ronnie James Deal, oh
yes, Vivian Campbell backstage to this gig,

130
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:19.680
and all I could do back there
as we talked about the music,

131
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:26.200
parenthood, the struggle in life,
the changes in life and music, and

132
00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:32.000
it was incredible. Tesla, to
me was a band that had the vocal

133
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:37.240
range of a Rod Stewart with the
faces from the seventies, but could easily

134
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:45.279
intervene with the bypassed the glam of
skid Row great singers like skid Row.

135
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:52.359
You had Axel Rows, the Black
Crows. But Tesla to me was underrated,

136
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:59.880
underappreciated all the way because that band
could go to such magnitudes where they

137
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:06.400
could be classified as an ass kicking
bone and grits rock and roll, back

138
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:12.319
into the roots of rock and roll
and even taken into the nineties of presenting

139
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:17.480
grunge with a little bit of kick
in the ass. So I would say

140
00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:22.440
Tesla is a very underrated band of
the eighties. Late nineteen eighty one,

141
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:29.559
bassist Brian Wheat and guitarist Frank Hannon
formed a band named City Kid, which

142
00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:36.480
evolved into the band that chang legs
called Tesla. Their debut album called Mechanical

143
00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:41.720
Resonance that produced two hit singles,
modern Day Cowboy and their cover of Little

144
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:45.960
Susie. And they had a top
ten single called Love Song and that came

145
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:49.960
out on Billboard two hundred album chart. By the way, all right,

146
00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:55.960
so a band that I know that
was definitely underrated, although they had a

147
00:19:56.200 --> 00:20:00.359
smash hit album and its entirety it
was a band and formed the nineteen seventy

148
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:07.480
eight from Melbourne, Australia, best
known for breakthrough hits such as down Under,

149
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:11.279
who Can It Be? Now,
Be Good, Johnny Overkill and It's

150
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:15.920
a Mistake. And I'm talking about
the unmistakable band of Men at Work.

151
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:22.119
It's founding member and frontman is Colin
Hay who performs on lead vocals and guitar.

152
00:20:22.720 --> 00:21:04.519
With that here is Tesla and Men
at Work Store to play skies pulls

153
00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:18.000
and still do the road and laden
coos compassion to the ground, call his

154
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:44.240
side as he was into whether the
man was bad side and show down and

155
00:21:44.400 --> 00:22:11.960
then sawn time time shot down to
talk. I'm a woman and for Joels,

156
00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:27.079
I'm a wrong slone d come on
always starts to try lad be that

157
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:52.440
s trying to change and shame just
the song sound listening, show down down

158
00:22:52.759 --> 00:24:11.319
and anna so now while by spong
but for Lis with the children's events all

159
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:22.880
time so good? You say are
you when the sais goes to the side,

160
00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:42.240
I say the message lear to take
a side, show down down and

161
00:24:42.359 --> 00:25:51.200
any time so down Toffy came you
show down down. I can't catch your

162
00:25:51.279 --> 00:26:00.480
sleep. I think about the implications
I'm diving into a d and possibly the

163
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:11.960
complications, especially at night, the
worry over situations I know will be all

164
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:25.920
right. Perhaps it's just an imagination
that after date reab for night after night

165
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:47.519
my hearty shows the field goes to
bear unfair between the sheets only brings exasperation.

166
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:56.880
It's time to walk the streets.
Smell of desperation at least has three

167
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:15.759
lights yasition fights the night from over
kid, Happy day be a bee night

168
00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:30.680
after name my hounty shows The Bee
Who to Be? From back another day.

169
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:25.920
I've got got this. I'm thinking
my implications. I'm not I mustn't

170
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:36.279
be complications. Especially I want to
situations down. I know want me.

171
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:49.720
It's just all my care. Dat
after day we would be tonight after night

172
00:28:51.119 --> 00:29:18.240
by my bed shows The Bee Who
to Be? Nobody has the movie I

173
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:22.319
want. Hey, if it's on
video, Blockbuster probably hasn't. I mean

174
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.119
we have over ten thousand videos.
Wow, I'll watching spas have them back

175
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:29.440
tomorrow, I promise, relaxed a
Blockbuster, you can keep your videos for

176
00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:32.960
three evenings, so take home plenty
and use our twenty four hour quick drop.

177
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:37.599
Do you have any children's videos?
Sure, Blockbusters America's Family Video Store.

178
00:29:37.640 --> 00:29:41.319
You know we have more kids videos
than any place else. A more

179
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:48.599
movies, more nights, more fun. What a difference If you can't wear

180
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.559
a spandex jumpsuit? What can you
do? Can on this? Backack to

181
00:29:52.680 --> 00:30:00.119
the eighties? Welcome back to back
to the eight He's radio right here at

182
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:04.960
kay It's note at two five where
we he viewed by rock and roll music

183
00:30:06.000 --> 00:30:10.680
and everything in between. A live
Oh Chang here from Tuscano and Chang,

184
00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:12.759
Oh, and the songs that we
set up for you. Come on,

185
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:18.359
you're either crying you're a sign right
now. Two great bands, underrated,

186
00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:23.079
underappreciated Tuscano. Have I got a
band for you? My band coming up

187
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:29.359
is The Fix. Oh yes,
that is the Fix of things that The

188
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:38.759
Fix were like a multi Swiss army
knife led by the unappreciated dright, unappreciated,

189
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:47.519
capitalized every content in that word oh
by frontman Sikernan. That guy had

190
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:49.599
a voice. He could have blasted
up on his own, but he did

191
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:55.640
not. He took the new wave
pop rockers. That's right. The Fix

192
00:30:56.039 --> 00:31:02.319
broke out in the US in their
second record, Reached the Beach, Oh

193
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:07.079
and no other the nineteen eighty three
when the Chang became a man graduated from

194
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.960
high school nineteen eighty three, it
featured not one, not ten, not

195
00:31:12.119 --> 00:31:18.079
five, but twenty hits. Twenty
hits on that album, Tisconnell, what

196
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:22.839
do you have to say about the
Fix? A numberal this says, say

197
00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:30.480
in the underrated bands of the eighties
who couldnot adhere to what this Chang speaks

198
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:37.680
as the radio beer, come on
broad great great band, I can tell

199
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:42.880
you for a fact, Yes,
it was underrated as most of the music

200
00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:48.279
and the bands that we're going to
be talking about this day. So Chang,

201
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:51.480
I gotta hand it to you.
Great band, The Fix, And

202
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:56.119
you know, they came out in
many of the places on the Billboard top

203
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:02.640
one hundred, they didn't really last
long, for example, underplayed. There

204
00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:07.720
were times when they were yeah,
they were definitely they were definitely underplayed,

205
00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:13.599
but there were times when they were
like very very last. They only lasted

206
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:20.039
maybe two weeks in the top one
hundred, for example September eighth of nineteen

207
00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:24.720
eighty four with a song called are
We Ourselves? They only lasted two weeks

208
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:29.519
in the number one spot and before
being dethroned, And just like that,

209
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:32.119
they didn't really get the recognition that
was due to them. You know,

210
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:36.440
it was kind of shameful. They
got cut out by a lot of great

211
00:32:36.480 --> 00:32:43.359
bands bro You Two, George Michael, Culture Club. So in the pop

212
00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:46.720
content they cut they got cut out
on a lot. And if you think

213
00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:52.160
back to La Terrestaural Radio or anybody
playing an alternative the Cure, the Smiths

214
00:32:53.160 --> 00:32:59.839
bands of that magnitude, Oingo Boingle, the Fix, The Fixed fell into

215
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:06.039
the stream of I'd say between you
two and maybe Cheers for Fears. Also,

216
00:33:06.200 --> 00:33:10.000
Cheers for Fears didn't get a lot
of recognition besides the hits that they

217
00:33:10.119 --> 00:33:15.880
spawned on terrestrial radio. It's another
bann. We could talk about my Brother,

218
00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:19.759
another one of the songs from The
Fix back in nineteen eighty six.

219
00:33:20.119 --> 00:33:23.400
As a matter of fact, July
fifth, another one of their hits that

220
00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:30.680
only lasted two weeks in the top
one hundred. It was called Secret Separation

221
00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:37.039
and they were I mean they were
dethroned by Genesis, Peter Gabriel van Halen.

222
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:42.039
I mean they were. They were
up against really really big names in

223
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:45.759
the business, so you know,
but you know, they're still on the

224
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:50.519
list. But they weren't played enough. And I can tell you though The

225
00:33:50.559 --> 00:33:54.680
Fix were played more than this following
band and artists that I have. We

226
00:33:54.839 --> 00:34:00.799
even had this gentleman on our show
here back to the eighties radio from Norwalk,

227
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:06.000
Connecticut. I don't think there is
a voice like him in all of

228
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:13.480
rock and roll. And I'm talking
about Milienko Militanovic, otherwise known as the

229
00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:24.239
American glam metal band formed in nineteen
eighty nine called Steel Heart, Angel You

230
00:34:24.480 --> 00:35:50.519
and Angels of My Yah. Time, all the time, time to call

231
00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:39.360
angel my heart lives alone. Agree
to me you never was the last side

232
00:36:40.239 --> 00:37:09.440
and on the wound. Never let
you go, I STI it is Claus

233
00:37:09.639 --> 00:39:17.320
the child side always at all time. How you the deception with time?

234
00:39:19.559 --> 00:39:28.920
Just what I'm trying to say.
You gotta ry communicable at your body face.

235
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:37.440
You see the mansions stint st you
go with that white do when one

236
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:42.920
little class needs to shot, scrit
your teeth you wrap a goverso the screen.

237
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:57.880
I don't bad you the same leaves

238
00:39:58.119 --> 00:40:07.199

254
00:42:51.880 --> 00:42:53.719
one of the bands who is underrated
if you don't mind, as one of

255
00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:58.679
my bands from the nineteen eighties that
they were pretty big. There was a

256
00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:02.360
lot of posters made, yet they
fell off the maps somewhere and to be

257
00:43:02.559 --> 00:43:07.480
heard of very very little. Again. They were formed in London in nineteen

258
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:13.239
eighty one, the most commercially successful
lineup. Originally it was consisted of four

259
00:43:13.360 --> 00:43:19.960
members and that was John Wetton,
King Crimson and UK, the guitarist Steve

260
00:43:20.079 --> 00:43:23.639
Howe from Yes, keyboardist Jeff Downs
from Yes and the Buggles, and the

261
00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:30.360
drummer Carl Palmer from Emerson in Lake
and Palmer. Their debut album released in

262
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:37.159
nineteen eighty two, And I'm talking
about the band called Asia. Oh man.

263
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:42.400
Asia was a great band, bro, I mean Emerson, lacoln Palmer,

264
00:43:42.480 --> 00:43:49.280
Emerson, Lincoln Powell. The musicianship
in that band alone was captivating,

265
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:55.800
song pulse, sating that vocal that
very first song, it was like powerful.

266
00:43:57.000 --> 00:44:00.079
You knew you had to take front
Seaton list just like when you listen

267
00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:07.000
to a yes Errol Smith foreigner.
Anytime you heard a great band with a

268
00:44:07.159 --> 00:44:12.360
powerful vocalist, you had to take
recognition. Dude, Asia was a great,

269
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:17.920
great band. They should have reached
higher magnitudes. All great veteran musicians.

270
00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:21.639
What a great band? Good pick
for you? Well, I've got

271
00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:24.079
a band, yes, and you're
gonna call it cliche. Oh chang,

272
00:44:24.320 --> 00:44:29.599
here we go, Here we go, Here we go. Hit us with

273
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:37.239
photograph. Man, you see you
see how they hate? Oh man,

274
00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:45.119
I'm gonna tell you a band called
Sinder. Oh yes, I love Cinderella.

275
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:52.239
I mean somebody saved me. Here's
a band that looked pretty but it

276
00:44:52.599 --> 00:45:00.360
had the sound of awesome. Yes, I mean from their first the first

277
00:45:00.480 --> 00:45:07.639
album, Heartbreak Station in nineteen eighty, nineteen eighty Love Gone Bad, Loves

278
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:14.519
Me Doing Time one for rock and
roll. Cinderella was a band that looked

279
00:45:14.559 --> 00:45:19.000
pretty, looked tired, look haggard, but rock and roll. Kind of

280
00:45:19.079 --> 00:45:24.360
like the Rolling Stones meet the Black
Crows, meet Guns and Roses meet Motley

281
00:45:24.480 --> 00:45:31.119
Crewe, but with real musicians.
Wink wink over Motley Crewe and you know

282
00:45:31.280 --> 00:45:37.000
what long lives Cinderella. I have
my buddy Micah that worked, one of

283
00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:45.239
the guys from Cinderella one. They
bottomed up putting up signs in Hollywood,

284
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:50.360
in LA. That's right, Billboard
Stein. I really really liked the song

285
00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:53.519
Don't know what you got till it's
gone. What a great song. Keep

286
00:45:53.599 --> 00:46:00.599
it locked and loaded. We got
more coming up. Michael, creature of

287
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:37.440
the night, back to the eighties. You'll leave me now, see your

288
00:46:37.679 --> 00:46:50.280
rise. There's no disguising it.
It really comes as no surprise to fund

289
00:46:50.360 --> 00:47:05.159
that you planted all alone. See
it now. You can't so cleanse your

290
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:17.840
insin suraty me your story. You
think that I would? Now, Sure

291
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:25.880
as the sun will across the sky, the sly is over, like the

292
00:47:27.119 --> 00:47:53.400
tears that used the time, The
thing is sure, the time will tell

303
00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:43.280

Your downs come tet. So now

306
00:52:57.199 --> 00:53:20.800
my soul. She can't take if

t want to see dave me just
like just just says I meant don't come.

309
00:54:55.760 --> 00:55:14.599
Don't know why it is? I
didn't why chant this song and say

310
00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:47.519
that by t don't know what you
don't know why? Just this my taket

311
00:55:47.679 --> 00:56:05.960
al only time We'll tell by Asia, followed by the one and Only Cinderella.

312
00:56:06.519 --> 00:56:08.320
Don't know what you got till it
has gone? Ladies, gentlemen here

313
00:56:08.360 --> 00:56:10.679
and back to the eighties Radio Oka
hit the ninety two point five. Thank

314
00:56:10.719 --> 00:56:14.760
you for joining us here. We
appreciate you joining us. Chang and I

315
00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:19.679
choosing those bands that we think they
needed more credit, not only more airplay,

316
00:56:19.760 --> 00:56:23.039
but more credit given to them.
Oh the next band I have to

317
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:29.360
be stolen on our boys and girls
out there, Russia. Back to the

318
00:56:29.639 --> 00:56:35.239
eighties. Radio is a band that
I think went under the radar in the

319
00:56:35.400 --> 00:56:40.360
seventies and the eighties. I'm talking
about The Cars. What shake it up?

320
00:56:40.639 --> 00:56:45.480
Baby? The Cars? Oh man, what a great band. Two

321
00:56:45.639 --> 00:56:49.679
lead singers, you know what I'm
talking about. And a band that like

322
00:56:50.800 --> 00:56:55.519
they brought rock and roll, punk, alternative, glam, whatever you call

323
00:56:55.559 --> 00:57:00.800
it into one round almost away,
David Bow. We did in the seventies

324
00:57:01.239 --> 00:57:08.239
something like Roxy Music. Another band
everybody underrated back in the eighties. Roxy

325
00:57:08.400 --> 00:57:14.159
Music. But come on Man the
Cars. The Cars were at the forefront

326
00:57:14.800 --> 00:57:19.840
at the merger of the nineteen seventies
guitar oriented rock with new synthesizer oriented pop,

327
00:57:20.199 --> 00:57:23.440
and it became extremely popular in the
eighties. So yeah, the Cars

328
00:57:23.480 --> 00:57:28.320
weren't named Best New Artist in nineteen
seventy eight by Rolling Stones reader's poll.

329
00:57:28.639 --> 00:57:30.480
And then in the eighties, I
mean, with the advent believe it or

330
00:57:30.519 --> 00:57:34.199
not, like it or not,
but the advent of MTV, the Cars

331
00:57:34.320 --> 00:57:37.519
just took off to another level.
You know what, Bro, I had

332
00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:40.679
an eight track of the Cars Bro
moving in stereo. That was always a

333
00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:45.239
song that captivated my mind and my
soul in the essence of what I thought

334
00:57:45.400 --> 00:57:50.760
music was evolving to. I kind
of am a little hesitant to say this

335
00:57:50.920 --> 00:57:54.239
next band, not because I don't
think they're they're great. I do.

336
00:57:54.920 --> 00:58:00.559
And you think that they started off
grade and they ended up very poorly,

337
00:58:00.199 --> 00:58:06.280
and that's I will leave that up
to everybody to make up their own mind.

338
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:08.000
Let me just tell you a little
bit about them. They were a

339
00:58:08.079 --> 00:58:14.880
band born in San Francisco, California, in nineteen seventy four. It was

340
00:58:14.920 --> 00:58:21.159
a group of musicians including former members
of Jefferson Airplane between seventy four and eighty

341
00:58:21.199 --> 00:58:24.559
four. I'm talking about Jefferson Starship, who later on took the form and

342
00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:30.920
dropped the Jefferson and kept Starship.
The song that I am talking about is

343
00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:37.599
a song called No Way Out,
which only lasted one week. One week

344
00:58:38.480 --> 00:58:45.400
because they were dethroned by Billy Squire
and they were dethroned by Bruce Springsteaming.

345
00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:51.760
This is a very very and Billy
Squire, you got to admit, he's

346
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:57.880
another underrated artist. But Jefferson Starship
even more as a matter of fact,

347
00:58:58.880 --> 00:59:01.440
which is it just blows my mind
when they became Starship and they came out

348
00:59:01.480 --> 00:59:07.000
with a song we Built this City. The people that are music critics today

349
00:59:07.000 --> 00:59:10.280
are calling it one of the worst
songs ever written in the eighties. When

350
00:59:10.519 --> 00:59:16.280
to me, I love that song
we Built this City. Really yeah,

351
00:59:16.320 --> 00:59:19.519
well, I love that songe.
Plus it came out in a lot of

352
00:59:19.599 --> 00:59:23.400
movies. Man, I cannot go
past Grace Slick. You know, the

353
00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:30.440
Starship was airplane. Airplane was a
flight that we took on. You know,

354
00:59:30.760 --> 00:59:32.639
I'm a little bit older than you, so I took flight back in

355
00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:38.400
the sixties with Andris Plapton Traffic.
You know, come on, man,

356
00:59:38.599 --> 00:59:43.880
I'm talking about Humble Pie, Early
Stones. You know, I'm a I'm

357
00:59:43.920 --> 00:59:46.960
a child of that generation. So
Airplane to me was like, yeah,

358
00:59:47.039 --> 00:59:52.480
Grace slick, great hair, she
was pretty sexy. Her music was kind

359
00:59:52.519 --> 00:59:57.800
of like captivating rock and roll,
kind of grabbed your soul, kind of

360
00:59:58.840 --> 01:00:04.400
drug orient. You know. She
was like the Grateful Dead and a pretty

361
01:00:04.440 --> 01:00:08.760
face. But the Grateful Dead sucked. Now, when Mickey took over the

362
01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:15.440
realm and became the Starship, I'm
sorry, it just changed. Bro.

363
01:00:15.039 --> 01:00:20.320
Sarah, Please Sarah. I don't
want to hear about Sarah unless it's Sarah

364
01:00:20.480 --> 01:00:29.960
Lee Danish muffins and the dude had
hair and a muff as like a gay

365
01:00:30.119 --> 01:00:34.559
porn star. I'm gonna put it
out there right now. The Starship was

366
01:00:34.719 --> 01:00:38.920
not a lightship in the Chang's era
of the eighties. Now, my brother,

367
01:00:39.039 --> 01:00:43.679
I will have to I will have
to go against you, because you

368
01:00:43.800 --> 01:00:50.559
will say they are underrated. I
say they are underflated. They sucked.

369
01:00:50.760 --> 01:00:55.920
Look, just because to you they
they became something else doesn't mean that they

370
01:00:57.000 --> 01:01:00.239
didn't continue to produce good music.
Who did I learn that? From from

371
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:04.519
you? My friend, from you
who tells me all the time you have

372
01:01:04.639 --> 01:01:09.239
to be more open. You have
to open minded to accept the new music.

373
01:01:09.440 --> 01:01:20.760
Wow, anyway, how's it feel? My chaint hurts as I listened

374
01:01:20.760 --> 01:01:25.280
to this song. I'm violated in
five ways that I cannot enter. Ladies

375
01:01:25.320 --> 01:01:30.920
and gentlemen, put your ears to
your knees and listen to these ciscano.

376
01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:37.000
Please beyond, my sweet cupid,
I'll beyond. You're listening to back to

377
01:01:37.199 --> 01:02:02.559

397
01:07:03.320 --> 01:08:05.360

Standing star? Stand stand? How can

sheets to love me? Does he only

01:08:19.359 --> 01:08:38.840
seen what she was sing? No, she didn't the star, no star?

400
01:09:15.079 --> 01:09:18.800
Welcome back back to the Verdi with
Toscano Chang that was the car?

401
01:09:18.920 --> 01:09:23.359
Should just shake it up? Oh
man? Did they shake it up?

402
01:09:23.479 --> 01:09:30.439
Or what doskannel? And yes Toscannell's
favorite Jefferson Starship with Mickey porn, stash,

403
01:09:30.600 --> 01:09:38.439
hair and mustache. Oh we have
got the underrated, unappreciated, unreal,

404
01:09:38.840 --> 01:09:45.319
unheard of Top twenty thirty forty fifty
of those who you and I feel

405
01:09:45.479 --> 01:09:53.800
underrated to Scannel, this list could
take us on a journey that we need

406
01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:59.239
five shows for there's so many bands
that we could categorize and underrated with so

407
01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:02.760
many John music, do you not
agree we can go from pop into hip

408
01:10:02.800 --> 01:10:08.800
hop into a dance rock now,
I do want to make a clarification here

409
01:10:08.960 --> 01:10:11.600
here for people who are saying,
wait a second, A lot of those

410
01:10:11.640 --> 01:10:15.079
bands were not underrated, but some
of their songs were underrated. So it's

411
01:10:15.119 --> 01:10:18.319
not just the band. It's sometimes
it's the band was very well known,

412
01:10:18.359 --> 01:10:20.800
but the song was underrated. So
we're doing it that way as well,

413
01:10:20.880 --> 01:10:26.279
So keep that in mind. Now, changing back and Good Old England formed

414
01:10:26.359 --> 01:10:30.000
in London nineteen eighty Nick Feldman,
Jack Hughes and Darren cost In the name

415
01:10:30.119 --> 01:10:38.000
of course of this following band is
Chinese. Although everybody have fun tonight was

416
01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:44.560
not underrated, but the band Wang
Chung was an underrated band. I've got

417
01:10:44.640 --> 01:10:51.439
a band that is a generational.
I'm talking about none other than Milwaukee's Pride

418
01:10:51.600 --> 01:10:59.600
the fans, none other than the
Violent Lens. They are responsible for soul

419
01:10:59.680 --> 01:11:06.640
Men. He's seeing along folk punk
alternative favorites. One is such as Blister

420
01:11:06.800 --> 01:11:14.039
in the Sun, Added Up American
Music, The Kiss Off and Gone Daddy

421
01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:18.439
Gone. The band's self entitled album
of eighty two, when they broke it

422
01:11:18.600 --> 01:11:25.439
free and created a vibe for you
and me and those around. Oh ho

423
01:11:25.720 --> 01:11:31.439
to scon oh spank yourself. The
Fems are arguably one of the great rock

424
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:38.399
debut bands of their generation. The
sold out concerts. It's the following of

425
01:11:38.560 --> 01:11:44.279
human being after human being stands close
to the grateful dead, none other than

426
01:11:44.399 --> 01:12:02.680
the Vibe and dams. When I'm
walking, I struck. My stop and

427
01:12:02.960 --> 01:12:08.840

Back to the eighties radio. You

452
01:18:32.680 --> 01:18:38.319
little bit here as we are winding
down the clock here back to the eighties

453
01:18:38.399 --> 01:18:42.880
radio on k Hits ninety two point
five with Toscano and Chang. And as

454
01:18:42.960 --> 01:18:45.119
we get close to the end of
the program, I just want to keep

455
01:18:45.159 --> 01:18:48.520
reminding you guys that as you listen

456
01:18:48.600 --> 01:18:53.680

457
01:18:53.800 --> 01:18:56.920
it on k Hits or if you
listen to it on a podcast platform,

458
01:18:57.079 --> 01:19:00.000
leave us a review. We really
really need it and we really appreciated.

459
01:19:00.600 --> 01:19:06.039
All right, So we are counting
down. Here's the last band for each

460
01:19:06.760 --> 01:19:11.079
or the last performer, and I'm
going to tell you, Chang, I'm

461
01:19:11.159 --> 01:19:15.000
going to go with a band that
isn't new. It's a band, as

462
01:19:15.039 --> 01:19:21.439
a matter of fact, one of
the greatest rock bands in history, although

463
01:19:21.520 --> 01:19:28.840
they would claim they are the greatest
rock band in history, as their introduction

464
01:19:29.760 --> 01:19:45.920
for every live concert says and I'm
talking to don't say kiss, just my

465
01:19:46.119 --> 01:19:51.479
ass. Although they did have some
good albums when they took out the music.

466
01:19:51.560 --> 01:20:00.520
All right, all right, all
right, then, I telling you,

467
01:20:00.640 --> 01:20:08.520
oh Kiss, I'm telling you that
this band that was formed originally in

468
01:20:08.640 --> 01:20:15.680
nineteen seventy three, do you know
it's fifty fifty years this band is fifty

469
01:20:16.119 --> 01:20:24.319
years old. My friend. Everything
started with Paul Stanley Gene Simmons, Ace

470
01:20:24.479 --> 01:20:27.880
Freely by the way, whose name
is not Ace. His name was Paul

471
01:20:27.960 --> 01:20:30.560
Freely, but there couldn't be two
Paul's in the band, so he said,

472
01:20:30.760 --> 01:20:39.920
just called and Peter Chris, the
original four members of Kids, they

473
01:20:40.760 --> 01:20:45.199
had a little, a little something
happened that. You know, they were

474
01:20:45.399 --> 01:20:50.560
very hard rock for the era that
they all started, you know, when

475
01:20:50.600 --> 01:20:55.119
they started with their makeup and things
like that, and and they had their

476
01:20:55.199 --> 01:20:59.640
place. However, you know what
happened towards the middle to late eighties.

477
01:21:00.239 --> 01:21:05.359
They share PR well, well hear
me outo PR people and the suits and

478
01:21:05.479 --> 01:21:11.399
the further labels started coming out saying, you know what, we need more

479
01:21:11.880 --> 01:21:15.359
female presents. We need more women
to come out to the concerts, we

480
01:21:15.479 --> 01:21:17.800
need more women to buy records,
and the young girls. We want to

481
01:21:17.800 --> 01:21:23.479
get the young girls in here to
these to these venues. So what do

482
01:21:23.560 --> 01:21:28.920
they do? They started forming glam
glam pretty pretty makeup on the guys.

483
01:21:29.079 --> 01:21:32.119
You know, you've got poison.
You've got tons of bands that that became

484
01:21:32.239 --> 01:21:38.079
glam metal, and Kiss was no
exception to the rule. Did they make

485
01:21:38.119 --> 01:21:42.680
a mistake. Uh, definitely made
a mistake by taking their makeup off and

486
01:21:43.159 --> 01:21:46.800
succumbing to it. But you know
what, during that time, in nineteen

487
01:21:46.960 --> 01:21:54.479
eighty seven, they had an album
for Kiss, which was of course released

488
01:21:54.520 --> 01:21:58.520
in nineteen eighty seven as well.
And many of you are not familiar with

489
01:21:58.720 --> 01:22:03.800
these albums. There's a song called
Reason to Live from nineteen eighty seven.

490
01:22:04.600 --> 01:22:08.039
You know what the song sounds like, but a lot of people don't.

491
01:22:08.560 --> 01:22:12.319
And keep in mind, this is
a band that was, if not the

492
01:22:12.760 --> 01:22:15.960
greatest or the most famous or popular
band or whatever you want to say,

493
01:22:15.239 --> 01:22:19.640
most recognized because of their makeup band
in the world. And then all of

494
01:22:19.720 --> 01:22:24.439
a sudden they have no makeup and
now they start wearing, well, they

495
01:22:24.479 --> 01:22:28.239
start wearing different makeup, you know, with the lipstick and the blush and

496
01:22:28.319 --> 01:22:31.039
all whatever else comes with that.
And when you guys hear this song called

497
01:22:31.119 --> 01:22:34.359
Reason to Live, you're going to
find out a very different side of Kiss

498
01:22:34.399 --> 01:22:44.439
that you never knew was possible because
they sound incredibly like any other glam band

499
01:22:44.600 --> 01:22:47.079
and you go like, wait a
second, this is Kiss. It sounds

500
01:22:47.119 --> 01:22:53.680
like you're listening to Poison or some
other band like that. But I want

501
01:22:53.800 --> 01:22:59.479
us to play it because it was
a very underrated album by a very very

502
01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:03.239
well known band, and this song
by Kiss called Reason to Live was one

503
01:23:03.279 --> 01:23:08.079
of those big hits. By the
way, my friend, this song may

504
01:23:08.119 --> 01:23:11.119
not be our favorite, but I
gotta tell you, you gotta watch the

505
01:23:11.199 --> 01:23:15.399
video because when you watch the video, oh man, yeah, you're gonna

506
01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:18.680
you're gonna like it. If you
know what I mean, Well, I'm

507
01:23:18.720 --> 01:23:29.399
gonna have to come up with a
band named Berlin. Underrated band Berlin.

508
01:23:30.479 --> 01:23:38.960
Berlin reminded me of an alternative band
on the intro Eggzine from Pat Benatar Eggzine

509
01:23:39.079 --> 01:23:45.399
from the Go Goes, the band
Goals a little bit of I can't say

510
01:23:45.439 --> 01:23:54.239
the Runaways, but girl Power.
Berlin was a band that where vocally they

511
01:23:54.319 --> 01:23:59.159
could captivate you into harmonizing, but
yet they could take you to the techno

512
01:23:59.359 --> 01:24:05.800
and the talk like a car's but
with a female lead singer the Metro on

513
01:24:05.920 --> 01:24:11.359
the Metro was a song man dude. They played at Mike Grad Night in

514
01:24:11.560 --> 01:24:17.119
nineteen eighty three in Disneyland, and
that night was insane for me. I

515
01:24:17.279 --> 01:24:20.880
took it well. I took a
girl that I had a crush on,

516
01:24:21.079 --> 01:24:26.399
but she was very conservative to me. She ended up going out with my

517
01:24:26.520 --> 01:24:30.479
best friend from Cantwell, who was
at the same grad night. Now can't

518
01:24:30.520 --> 01:24:35.760
well from those of you from southern
California, East Los Angeles, monte Leo,

519
01:24:35.880 --> 01:24:41.279
Thevadio would understand count what was an
all boys school. I went to

520
01:24:41.399 --> 01:24:47.119
Montabello High School, public school.
I gathered with a lot of crazy heads,

521
01:24:47.479 --> 01:24:51.079
some of them gone now rest in
peace, all your souls. I

522
01:24:51.199 --> 01:24:56.079
missed and think of you every day. But our grad night was insane.

523
01:24:56.560 --> 01:25:01.039
This band played. I was already
a long freaky people. Now I went

524
01:25:01.079 --> 01:25:05.479
out with this girl that I was
infatuated with. Her mom and my mom

525
01:25:05.560 --> 01:25:11.560
were school teachers at Fremont Elementary,
so they thought we would be a good

526
01:25:11.640 --> 01:25:15.039
date because she had a crush on
me when I was the more subdued,

527
01:25:15.560 --> 01:25:20.359
quiet kind of individual, you know
what I'm saying. Yet I was old

528
01:25:20.520 --> 01:25:26.119
enough to be me. Grad knight
was a total bad deal for her.

529
01:25:26.680 --> 01:25:29.920
I broke out, I did sex, drugs, rock and roll, and

530
01:25:30.119 --> 01:25:33.960
not even with her. Long story
short, Berlin played that night. I

531
01:25:34.159 --> 01:25:39.920
held her hand, I let her
go with my best friend durn one of

532
01:25:39.960 --> 01:25:42.960
their songs really on that same night. Yeah, bro, because I wanted

533
01:25:43.000 --> 01:25:46.199
to go get crazy and I found
the crazy life for me. But yeah,

534
01:25:46.279 --> 01:25:50.479
Berlin, Well, did you know
that the start of Berlin, they

535
01:25:50.920 --> 01:25:55.319
were a band called Before Berlin,
they were a band called the Toys.

536
01:25:55.880 --> 01:25:59.920
They were formed in nineteen seventy six
from Orange County, California, where you're

537
01:26:00.119 --> 01:26:04.079
truly resides. Yes, you can
also say the same about Gwen Stefani and

538
01:26:04.239 --> 01:26:10.960
No FX Abandon. I'm sure you
don't like because they are of the nowadays,

539
01:26:11.039 --> 01:26:15.439
as opposed to what you think is
better music. But like not a

540
01:26:15.520 --> 01:26:18.760
hand it to you, though,
I do not find any substance in Gwen

541
01:26:18.880 --> 01:26:24.479
Stefani and No Effects. It's kind
of like Betty Boop sing me a rock

542
01:26:24.600 --> 01:26:28.720
song but polished down. No.
If I want to hear your voice,

543
01:26:28.840 --> 01:26:31.199
I'll watch porn there, I said, I that note. Here is the

544
01:26:31.319 --> 01:26:36.479
one and only Berlin on Back to
the eighties radio. Okay, it's ninety

01:29:55.319 --> 01:30:05.880
was hoping you my change your mind. I remember next to me riding on

once you got that new wave taste, do you want to try it again

again and again? No practice makes
perfect cuts the way into the cocoa you're

562
01:31:03.760 --> 01:31:36.960
listening to back to the eighties.
There's nobody my hearing s at a time,

563
01:31:39.880 --> 01:32:20.319

And I'm not alone. I'm not

567
01:34:50.359 --> 01:34:55.600
Welcome back to Back to the eighties

569
01:35:00.800 --> 01:35:05.640
onward towards the exit of our show
and we hate to have to go now

570
01:35:05.760 --> 01:35:12.199
to Skanno. Before we leave,
we must do what we always must do,

571

579
01:35:53.079 --> 01:35:57.960
to Skano, my brother, what
a set of songs to send us away.

580
01:35:58.399 --> 01:36:02.800
But I believe you have one song
that we both discussed that is the

581
01:36:03.039 --> 01:36:11.159
perfect ending, to perfect essence of
what we really believe here at back to

582
01:36:11.319 --> 01:36:15.279
the eighties Radio unity. Am I
not wrong? My brother? That is

583
01:36:15.319 --> 01:36:19.000
absolutely correct, man. There's a
lot of crap going on in the world,

584
01:36:19.239 --> 01:36:25.319
and all of us eighties fans can
recognize that the main reason why we

585
01:36:26.039 --> 01:36:30.319
want to go back to the eighties
and whatever other era in the past is

586
01:36:30.399 --> 01:36:33.119
because of what the world has become
in some way. For the most part,

587
01:36:33.159 --> 01:36:38.640
in the majority of us sincerely wish
that if there was a way we

588
01:36:38.720 --> 01:36:43.680
could go back to take us back
to a time where we hurt less.

589
01:36:44.920 --> 01:36:48.720
It's always been a hard and tough
life. It's always it's always been a

590
01:36:48.800 --> 01:36:54.119
mad world. But at the end
of the day, what you and I

591
01:36:54.359 --> 01:36:59.199
need, what this world needs,
is out of our control. And all

592
01:36:59.239 --> 01:37:04.239
I can tell you is whatever belief, whatever background, whatever kind of life

593
01:37:04.359 --> 01:37:10.479
you live, what everybody needs is, as Tears for Fears is going to

594
01:37:10.560 --> 01:37:15.039
say, is change. So in
order for us to become a better version

595
01:37:15.199 --> 01:37:19.640
of ourselves and a better version of
this world and this life that we're living

596
01:37:19.720 --> 01:37:25.239
in, people, come on,
we need some type of a change in

597
01:37:25.359 --> 01:37:29.199
our case. All we can do
to make it a little bit happier.

598
01:37:29.840 --> 01:37:32.920
Man, we're all inundated with problems. We got so much crap going on

599
01:37:33.039 --> 01:37:38.159
in our heads, in our daily
life. All we need is a little

600
01:37:38.279 --> 01:37:43.520
change and Tuscano and Chang and back
to the eighties Radio is here for exactly

601
01:37:43.640 --> 01:37:46.720
that, to give you a little
smile, to take away a little bit

602
01:37:46.800 --> 01:37:50.720
of that hurt. And the only
way we can do it is to bring

603
01:37:50.840 --> 01:38:00.920
you our stupidity, our experiences and
the music that was the soundtrack of our

604
01:38:01.000 --> 01:38:04.960
life. And on that note,
I want to wish you guys a happy

605
01:38:05.000 --> 01:38:10.479

don't forget to share the music of the

01:38:10.560 --> 01:38:14.920
eighties with a new generation. We'll
see you next week. And as Chang

607
01:38:15.119 --> 01:38:19.359

and only tears for fears with change that's
