I loved the eighties. From a music standpoint it was a little tough to compete with its predecessor but it was the end of the bell bottoms. So bell you couldn't see your shoes. Midway to later 80's was better than the first half. Boxing in the eighties was better overall I think compared to the 70’s. The move from 8-track to cassette was pretty much done. Polyester was big still but natural fibres were making it known and cool clothing shops were popping up. I hated Polyester and the Saturday Night Fever look that hung around through the early eighties. I was all Funk which was great in those days and kind of underground. Could not stand Disco. Gas was a buck a gallon. The weed was mediocre.
