I was 16 in 1980. Disco music was still being listened to. For example, Donna Summer and Chaka Khan. Other music performers I remember on the radio: Hall & Oates, Michael Jackson, U2, Heart, Fleetwood Mac, Styx, Commodores, Kenny Rogers, Crystal Gayle, Eddie Rabbitt, Ronnie Milsap, Pat Benatar, Supertramp, Air Supply, and Billy Joel. I discovered Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and Prince my senior year which was 81-82. I listened to rock and country music back then.

My dad was a computer programmer so back in 1980 and the very early 80s, I associated computers with the large ones he used at work.

I used to record songs from the radio onto TDK cassette tapes. This series is so good and bringing back some great memories.
