As the Goldbergs would say…The year was 1980 something and synthetic instruments made the present feel like the future, and no place in the greater Philadelphia area represented this better than Club Pulsations in Delco. If you would ask any of us what those fashions, hair styles, and computerized sounds were I’m sure we all thought we were living in the year 2000 already. Sure maybe our prognostication of what the next millennium would be like was way way off, but many songs from that era are still guilty pleasures of us today. Not that we’d admit it.
Today we use our bikes as time machines to go decades back into the past. Travelers beware…you must pedal hard to get back to the present lest you remain stuck in the past in a sea of smoke machines and laser lights, a prisoner of Pulsar the Robot.
Something to reflect upon when feeling as though this quarantine will never end. Almost all of the songs in this playlist are from 35+ years ago. I’m sure it doesn’t seem that long ago. How many times have you griped that time passes too quickly? All this nonsense we are going through now will pass by in the same way. We will blink and be a memory before you know it. Stay strong!
