The sound of the 80's continues to cement itself in a variety of ways. But this also marks the year Billboard began publishing its Modern Rock Tracks chart (later renamed to Alternative Songs), which will become even more notable in a few years.

But when examining the sound of 80's pop, I need to shine the spotlight on Stock Aitken Waterman, the songwriting trio known for their loud drum machines, booming synth lines, and their "assembly line" method of song production. You may recognize them from their work on tracks such as Dead or Alive's You Spin Me Round (Like a Record), Bananarama's Venus, and of course, Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. Even if most of the songs attributed to them aren't as widely remembered (and they produced a lot so that's not a knock against them), any song of theirs could be used in a soundtrack as a shorthand way to let audiences know "this scene takes place in the 80's."

Either because of or in spite of SAW's production sound being so tied to the pop music of its decade, the group has been rather controversial. That "assembly line" comment I made was not an offhand comment, but one of the terms used at the time to both describe and criticize the group's style. I know that nowadays, people don't trust any links that are in close proximity to the mention of Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. Anyway, here's an article that goes into how Stock Aitken Waterman produced the track. Trust me.

Steve Winwood (1948-) Traffic - vocals and guitar; Spencer Davis Group - lead vocals; Blind Faith - lead vocals, keyboards, guitar Songs: "I'm a Man," "Dear Mr. Fantasy" Defeated Opponents: Kasim Sulton, Pete Seeger Propaganda: none

David Byrne (1952-) Talking Heads - lead vocals and guitar Songs: "The Book I Read," "Heaven" Defeated Opponents: Roger Taylor, Sam Cooke Propaganda: "David Byrne has been the patron saint of autistic people around the world for decades. His unapologetic strangeness and unorthodoxy is unparalleled, undefeated. Not only is he an angel in every sense of the word, he's also hot as fuck. While many celebrities fear they've lost their spark as they age, he made aging his bitch. He owns it so hard he's reached levels of cuntlery that most could only dream of reaching. Not only did he make me feel more confident in myself and indirectly encourage me to stop faking through life to make others comfortable, he also made me excited to grow old and become the best, most wacky version of myself. He's also hot as fuck, and the only man who has truly made me question my sexuality." “Deeply complex, shy, introverted when not on stage, and the extraordinarily good-looking David Byrne […] was actually born in Scotland and here he is on tour there, in an hotel, smoking a cigarette, and looking like a 1940's movie star." (quote from Jill Furmanovsky)

Visual Propaganda for David Byrne:

You're totally right about that one actor that resembles young Steve Winwood! Biopic now

YES !!! the movie needs to be in pre-production now, what else is there to lose? the guy is perfect as Steve Winwood, but if he could pull off a brummie accent + find a guy that sings like ray charles to dub him.

Give him the Biopic that he deserves - spencer davis group, traffic, blind faith, ginger baker's air force, his solo years - it's all there

Song of the Day - “Can’t Find My Way Home” Today marks the 55th anniversary/birthday of Blind Faith. This short-lived but magical band formed today, February 8th, 1969, in Berkshire, in England… Made up of Stevie Winwood, Eric Clapton, Rick Grech, and Ginger Baker, Blind Faith were a beautiful asteroid… They existed for just one year, did one brief tour, and gifted us exactly one album. And it was enough. If all they left us was this one song, it would be plenty. “Can’t Find My Way Home” was written by Stevie Winwood, and, as nice as the original recording is (except for the overly-loud tambourine) .. do yourself the great favor of listening to Stevie doing this second recording of Stevie doing the song solo while sitting at his hearth… I saw Stevie and Eric on a tour they did right around this time, at Madison Square Garden, and that stellar voice of Stevie’s is intact and maybe even better with age… it really restores one’s faith - blind or otherwise - in the lasting beauty of a great song… almost nothing better… All Hail Stevie and Blind Faith
