Once again, Ed provided us with the perfect music for a hot, sultry night. Not only were the tunes high-temp, there was a bit of island salsa thrown in for fun. Then, if you weren’t already revved up, Ed threw in Yello’s “The Race.” I don’t care how cranky or out-of-sorts you might be. By the end of two hours of Retrospect, you will be refreshed, renewed, and rejuvenated.

Be sure to tune in to Ed and his “the music is always freshly obscure around here” 80’s Retrospect show on CFRC-FM from 8 pm until 10 pm on Tuesday nights. Ed takes requests by phone: (613) 533-CFRC (2372) or email: retrospectcfrc at yahoo dot ca. Indulge yourself in some “80’s Music that doesn’t suck.” I guarantee die-hard 80’s New Wave/Post-punk fans will not be disappointed.
