What do you think was the best year for music? For me, I reckon it was 1979. All four years from 1977 to 1980 were pretty good as I recall. Recently on YouTube I've been listening to
XTC - Making plans for Nigel
M - Pop Musik
Madness - Night Boat to Cairo
Joy Division - Transmission, Shadowplay, Control
The Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits
Just did a little google search and found hits like YMCA by The Village People (camp but fun) and Boogie Wonderland by Earth Wind and Fire were also released in 1979.
To be honest I can't remember much punk as I was only 11 or 12 in 1979 and it wasn't played on the tv or radio much, but there was new wave, disco, two tone and lots of cheesy pop.
