Once again, it's time for another Irregular Eighties Friday: all eighties music for 24(ish) hours.
If you enjoy music from this era (and, surprisingly, this is the program that I seem to get the most comments about via Facebook and elsewhere), you really should check out Rolling Stone music critic Rob Sheffield's latest book, Talking to Girls About Duran Duran, an enormously funny and charming book about being an adolescent during the eighties, viewed through the music of the era.
