Songs from Albums Turning Forty-Five in 2026

__________

THE next part…

of this series sees me marking albums that turn forty-five next year. Marking that anniversary, I am including songs from the very best of 1981 in this mixtape. I was born in 1983, though I would have grown up listening to a lot of the albums these songs are from. An underrated year in music, 1981 gave us some wonderful albums from the likes of The Human League, Kraftwerk, Grace Jones, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. I am sure that most of you are familiar with a lot of the albums I am including at the end. Those that are turning forty-five in 2016. Maybe we will see reissues or new editions of some of these albums. I hope so. In the meantime, take a listen to this mixtape and take yourself back…

TO 1981.
