Some early mornings I luck into an empty gym and the freedom to switch the TVs to music videos for a workout soundtrack. (The radios at this gym were disconnected ages ago.) And amidst the latest Black-Eyed Peas or Lady Gaga they'll sometimes rotate a video from the 1980s - Whitesnake, say. And, boy, are they bad. We didn't realize it at the time, but they are really, truly bad. (Watch the opening sequence of Music and Lyrics if you don't believe me.) Of course, the 1980s weren't all Feargal Sharkey and Air Supply - there was Black Flag, King's X and Faith No More, for example. If you'd like to revisit those gems, or if your nostalgia for Aldo Nova is simply too strong, this is the site for you.
