Back In The 80s

This week I am due to start volunteering at my local community radio station (2NCR). In my interview last week I expressed my desire to work with the programming team in the hope that one day I will be able to start a program of my own dedicated to discussing and listening to music of a protest/social justice/environmental nature.

I was very pleased to find the “In the 80’s” website the other day and thought to bring to your attention the very detailed list they have of protest/cold war music from that era. Unfortunately the related 1970’s and 1990’s sites don’t have the same type of list.

This will be something of a focus for me for the next few years so its exciting to find such a comprehensive list and certainly a good start to this aspect of my project.
