Oh yea! Techmoan Effect, the $50 tape deck starts going for a few hundred? Great song and sounds great through the Klipsch Heresy's. A breakthrough record for Genesis, coming off the long progressive, kind of studious earlier songs, similar to YES, taking full advantage of harder pop with synths into the 80's. #1 in the UK, #7 in the USA, those were good times. Just looking at Billboard 1/5/82 and the top 15 albums are all classics, not only that but most had 3+ singles. We also had several female artists fully embraced by the rock community along with 70's classic bands mingling with new rock-synth bands.
