Looks and Smiles (1981)

Yesterday Once More

The 5P music blog brings the blogosphere news of why July 3rd, 1982 was the most important day in the history of eighties:

Best album of the eighties reached its rightful place.

Best number one single of the eighties drove a welcome wedge between Stevie Wonder (with Macca) and Survivor stateside.

On the same day, a Norwich band by the name of The Happy Few did a Peel Session - which you can hear here - and I thought I was Eder* when kicking a ball six hours a day . . . and I probably needed my haircut.

A day late but that don't matter: what the hell ever happens on July 4th anyway?

*July 3rd 1982 was the day after Brazil had dismantled Argentina 3-1, to put the holders out of the World Cup. July 5th was still to come.
