#010 - Senses Working Overtime

I'm going to try and make every 10th post a playlist. This is purely for my benefit as a frustrated DJ.

So to start, here's an 80's playlist I made on Spotify a while back.

I tried to make it from solely guitar driven bands, but in the end I caved and put a couple of synth-pop tracks on. I'll do a playlist for the synthesizer side of the 80's another time.
It's all pretty much standard fodder if you know your 80's guitar bands, though there's a few things you might not have heard, most notably a band called 'Furniture', who sadly seem to have faded into obscurity.
I've resisted the temptation to fill it with goth bands - again, another playlist, another time.
