The Cure, Depeche Mode, New Order, Echo and the Bunnymen, Duran Duran, U2, G&R, Skid Row.

I leaned more towards the "New Wave-ish" stuff.

Don't forget Michael Jackson...Thriller and Bad were huge albums.

well, until i was about 10 yrs. old and knew any better (1986), i listened to crap like Duran Duran, Tears For Fears, INXS, and other crap like that. after that, i got more into Guns 'N' Roses, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, etc., just "normal" type Rock 'N' Roll. then when i turned 13 - 14, it was more stuff like Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Prong, D.R.I., RHCP, Pantera, Testament, and then some even heavier, darker stuff like Entombed, Carcass, Bolt Thrower, Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, Sepultura, Kreator, and many, many, many more thrash metal/death metal bands that i can't remember the names of right now....

and Freaky Stylee (i belive George Clinton had a hand in producing both)
hell yeah, Freaky Stylee & UMPP were some awesome albums, i need to try to find those somewhere

that's why i have a 30GB MP3 player that i can connect to my car stereo that contains my complete album collection.....that way you don't have to keep CD's in your car, and you can easily remove the MP3 player when you leave your car.

that sucks man, but since you know who did it, whoop that ****** ***!!! i hate ******** that do that ****....
