what 'Obscure 80s Central' shares blew you away?

What discoveries have you made through this site's sharing forum that you wish you had discovered back in the 80s--and that you could have official copies of in your collection? One of mine is New Scientists. Their album could be found online a while back for over 100 bux, but recently I've found no listings for it anywhere and I think it's such a great new wave treasure.

I really liked the songs by the group Empire. I had never heard of them before. Now, if anyone has their lost album, I'd really like to hear it. Other groups that I hadn't heard of that I was impressed with are UK Vision and Private Lives.



See through faded, super jaded and out of my mind

I also loved Hohokam. Wish their album had been--and will be released someday...which is unlikely.
