Was about to open a thread about this no longer being available. I wonder is it gone for good?. It was the only place to go to for great 80s tunes. Come back Real 80's!!

IrishHomer

Thanks very much! I had 50hrs recorded on my iPod but iPod got destroyed in washing machine last week.

i have loads more real 80s from 2011 but I'm having problems putting it on youtube and dailymotion something to do with copyright, they keep deleting them when i upload now.

Interestingly I had recently been listening to Real 80s and Real 70s on my DAB radio, and they've both disappeared in the last week (from DAB).
I thought the bad/wet weather was to blame, but maybe they have gone?

I must try them again tomorrow.

i think you mean all 70s and all 80s?

LordSutch

Oops, yes you are correct.

Think you're getting mixed up with All 70s and All 80s (Dusty Rhodes)

Real 80s was a great station, with better variety of songs that don't usually get played than the above. I loved when they'd throw in great Irish songs from Paul Brady, Those Nervous Animals, Christy Moore etc.

Yes Real 80s was totally amazing and far superior to any others. I have been trying to listen now to all 80s but I hate it. Too much waffle from DJs and too many irritating ad breaks and oh yes the music is too repetitive and no variation.
