Re: Beat The Intro - Acceptable In The 80s
 

Stick that lot in the dustbin - if you have any sense and appreciation of good popular music, get yourself stuff from the 50's/60's/early 70's. Everything else after that is pure garbage.

Re: Beat The Intro - Acceptable In The 80s
 

Will go back to this on the next one, and it will be loaded in the evening for the workers, as I'm back in work tomorrow ;)
