Come out of what many consider the peak of Classic Rock in the 1970s, the genera was still going strong with AC/DC coming back from the death of Bon Scott with Back in Black, Ozzy Osbourne going solo with Blizzard of Oz (Crazy Train) and Judas Priest, The Police, Bruce Springsteen, Pat Benatar and The Pretenders all emerging as essential artists and bands. But 1980 delivered a tragic blow to rock & roll with the murder of John Lennon and the breakup of Led Zeppelin following the death of John Bonham. Rock & Roll carried on with albums like Moving in Pictures by Rush and 4 by Foreigner. Hair metal began to emerge with Def Leppard and Iron Maiden from England, Quiet Riot and Van Halen from Hollywood. Joan Jett and The Blackhearts also showed that girls could rock just as hard too contributing to more hardcore punk. 1981 was also the year MTV launched with Video Killed the Radio Star by The Buggles, making Rock & Roll a visual medium. One hit wonder new wave bands seemed to dominate the airwaves, but some bands like The Talking Heads, The Jam or Billy Idol had staying power. Journey showcased the amazing vocal talents of Steve Perry and also incorporated synths into their sound. Synthesizers and new production techniques seemed to be taking over, notable synth intros like The Final Countdown from Europe are staples of the decade. However artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan kept to his blues roots becoming one of the most loved guitar players of all time. ZZ Top, Eric Clapton and Toto also enjoyed great success. But with the monster careers of Michael Jackson (Thriller becoming the most celebrated album of the decade) and Madonna, music seemed to be catering more to image. The Dire Straits produced the video Money for Nothing specifically for MTV, A-Ha's Take on Me was regarded as a music video triumph, while record companies tried to hide the image of Anne Wilson of Heart due to her body image. As the 80s continued, hair-metal acts like Bon Jovi and Guns N Roses seemed to produce a more overproduced sound with gated reverbs. Though the later's landmark album Appetite for Destruction paved the way for the 90s. In 1985, Live Aid raised money to fight famine in Ethiopia and is most famous for Queen's brilliant set. U2 was another band to emerge from this concert. Not quite in the mainstream was alternative rock, with bands like The Replacements, The Pixies, The Smiths, The Cure and R.E.M. An even heavier scene spotlighted the big four of Thrash Metal: Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeath and Metallica. Anthrax also collaborated with hip-hop group Public Enemy, after the previous collaboration between Aerosmith and Run-DMC on "Walk This Way". The Beastie Boys also emerged as a rap-rock group. Unfortunately with Tipper Gore and the PMRC pushing for parental advisor labels, the angst was taken out of rock & roll, hence Poison and Motley Crue's over-the-top presence in rock music. The landscape of music seemed to shift more towards image over substance (Milli Vanilli) but with George Harrison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan forming the Traveling Wilburys and Neil Young going after President George Bush Sr. on his classic "Rockin' in the Free World", there was hope for Rock & Roll to continue in the 90s... of course there is still division over 80s rock and roll, hopefully JT Curtis and The Other Guy won't have a big fight over it... 0:00 Introduction 1:35 Back in Black 3:35 Rock Songs of 1980 7:29 The Death of John Lennon 9:38 Rock & Roll Carries On 11:49 Hair Metal 14:06 Joan Jett & Punk 15:49 MTV 19:07 New Wave & One-Hit Wonders 22:20 Synths Take Over 25:02 Blues Rock Revival 27:15 Michael Jackson 29:51 The Best and Worst Videos of the 80s 33:31 The New Industry Standard 35:29 Bon Jovi 37:04 The Final Countdown 37:40 Guns N' Roses 39:21 Live Aid 42:26 Alternative Rock 45:04 Thrash Metal 47:46 Rap Rock 48:43 Parental Advisory Labels 50:44 The Late 80s 54:20 Rockin in the Free World 55:34 Did the 80s Rock Hard?! 56:14 The Fight 59:04 The Bum's Wise Words
