80's Babies

I had been thinking about doing another 80s show like the one Silk & I dropped last year but in gathering cuts for a new mix show I decided to go in a slightly different direction. This mix set features artists from the 80s along with a few newer artists they have inspired. I tried to keep an over all 80s vibe but sometimes the mix will just take you were it wants to go lol. Hope everyone enjoys the show.
