Most 80s stuff except the really cheesy stuff.

I've been a big Meatloaf fan since I *ahem* borrowed the copy of Bat out of hell 2 my Dad recieved for Christmas in 1993.

I don't mind a lot of old school Country and Western, Kenny Rogers and all those kind of singers, I guess I've kind of inherited that from my Dad, I just wish Dad could sing the proper words to songs instead of making up songs about some woman called Big Ada who apparently had a fruit stall on Dixon Lane in the 60s! :loopy:
