Sunshine After Dark 276, Time capsule 1980, Part 18 - RCA/TK Thurs. 7pm CJSR MDT / Sat. 7pm CHMA ADT / Tues. 6pm CKXU MDT Highlighting a few RCA (Odyssey, Machine) and TK (Ish, KC, Foxy) releases. Still straddling that 1979/1980 divide. The Foxy LP is 79, but is "dedicated to the 80s". The KC song only appeared on the 1980 greatest hits LP (and subsequent comps). Gotta love the Capt. Sky gatefold. Also a couple hot tracks from Rafael Cameron (Randy Muller of Brass Construction produced). #disco #boogie #vinyl #1980 #timecapsule #radio @friendsofcjsr @chma106.9 @ckxu_radio

Sunshine After Dark 275: 1980, Part 17 Arista THURS 7pm CJSR MDT, SAT 7pm CHMA ADT, TUES 6pm CKXU MDT / all streaming links in bio This week I'm featuring 1980 releases from Arista records, which I feel was one of the more forward looking majors, in terms of the emerging musical style of the 80s. Not a definitive label profile, just the records I've got, programming multiple cuts off each to give a fair sense of the label's style. I'll be taking this approach in future 1980 episodes, cause I have more LPs than singles left to get through. Fat Larry's Band and The Gap Band are not Arista acts, I threw them in to complement the rest of the brew. Note that the Tonto synthesizer (slide 3) is now at the (Canadian) National Music Centre in Calgary. Love the DJ stamp on slide 1. Picked that up in Montreal last summer. @friendsofcjsr @chma106.9 @ckxu_music @nmc_canada #disco #boogie #radio #1980 #vinyl

Sunshine After Dark 274. THURS 7pm CJSR MDT / SAT 7pm CHMA ADT / TUES 6pm CKXU MDT More Eurodisco in Part 16 of my series on 1980, which naturally includes some of the deluge from 1979. I kind of think of 1980 like one of those runoff roads they have in the mountains for big trucks that lose control to slow down on. The commercial momentum from peak disco didn't stop immediately, but the artistic momentum stopped and the new threads of the 80s hadn't quite begun. Anyway, you can check out the carousel and then tune in for some furious, fun jams. @friendsofcjsr @chma106.9 @ckxu_music #disco #1980 #1979 #vinyl #timecapsule #radio

I'm back! After taking a week off, Sunshine After Dark episode 273 will be rocking the airwaves tonight on CJSR 7 (7 pm MDT), Saturday on CHMA (7pm ADT) and Tuesday on CKXU (6pm MDT). Part 15 of my time capsules for 1980, this week and next I'm turning to the European sound, which continued the driving euphoric strand of disco that fell out of favour in America. Playing multiple cuts from the first two Black Sun LPs (Silvetti and Martina), a Matra sublabel started by Unidisc founder George Cucuzzella in 1980, plus my favourite Peter Jacques Band (Mauro Malavasi), and fun numbers from Angella Dean, Donna Summer and more. @friendsofcjsr @chma106.9 @ckxu_music #disco #vinyl #radio #1980 #eurodisco #timecapsule

Sunshine After Dark 271 | 1980, Part 13 THURS 7pm CJSR MDT / SAT 7pm CHMA ADT / TUES 6pm CKXU / streaming links in bio Checking out the rock disco, neo/no wave side of the equation this week with killer cuts from Gina X, Latvian (Soviet) Space rockers Zodiac, Cerrone, Sparks, Siggi Freud, Adam and the Ants, The Flying Lizards and African disco master N'Draman Blintch with a powerful anti-war message, Self Destruction. Some of these are carry overs from '79, truth be told. @friendsofcjsr @ckxu_music @chma106.9 #disco #newwave #vinyl #radio #1980 #timecapsule
