Greatest American Bands From The 80s

from The (Mostly) 80s Music Podcast: What Difference Does It Make? · host Dave Sloan and Holly Cantos - 80s Music Podcast

As an 80s music podcast, and as America recognizes another year of independence, we believe the time is right to recognize our favorite American music artists from the 80s.  The rules are simple: 1) You and /or your band must contain at least one American original band member. 2) They must have released their first album in the 80s. Simple, right? There is a lot of discussion, as well as a number of caveats, but we seem to have come up with a good list of 80s American music artists. Enjoy! And please let us know about the ones we forgot. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
