Thankfully the late nite music spilled onto daytime wireless.
Bob weren't bad before he invented charity.
The Boomtown Rats - Looking After No.1

Billie Currie features on this video..Tubeway Army didn't last though..Gary was marketed solo.
Tubeway Army - Are Friends Electric.

The Sex Pistols and The Vibrators and most of the real movement were largely ignored ..and shunted onto New Wave shows...it was nice to hear Pub Rock stalwarts making a return.
Nick Lowe - I Love The Sound Of Breaking Glass.

Three memories:
Rose Royce - Wishing On A Star.

Star Wars meets Saturday Night Fever?
Dee D Jackson - Automatic Lover

Similar theme..the world seemed ****** up - John Travolta and Old Spice and flared baggies VS punkpins vomit and thrash..nice!
Cerrone - Supernature.

After 3 hits this geezer fizzled out...
BA.Robertson - Bang Bang.

The mod revival was here..and kids lapped it up!
The Specials - Gangsters.

Diverse was the name of the game..i'll pass on posting Lena Martell...but this was well crafted:
Cliff Richard - We Don't Talk Anymore.
