Episode 42 of Excellent Eighties, well done on reaching Level 42, it obviously runs in the family. The 12" remix is back to the sixties, courtesy of a dancing rabbit. More 60's vibes in your 80's cheese and crackers and a 60's cover in the 80's Blockbuster. Don't worry though there's still plenty of Excellent Eighties tunes in this episode,

Episode 40 of Excellent Eighties, in other words, "UB40...." - so let's raise a glass of red, red wine. Meanwhile if you see an invisible man in your bed, do you know what number to call? Is it 01 811 8055? Or are you watching out for the Phantom Flan Flinger?

Enjoy!
