excellent choice & thanks for keeping things 24 bit
Paul, Great choice. I love living in a box, and although most people only know their self titled song. They had several other great songs too.

Talking about D-Mob – the fantastic Come One And Get My Love would JUST make the Eighties criteria (hint hint)
Love and light,
