"[W]hen you look back at music of an era, it's actually very difficult to get into the frame of mind of the time, when listening to it.
"Which makes a lot of difference as to how you hear it. The reason for this is, in the back of your mind, you are already aware of what came after it, so that taints the excitement of it somewhat.
"So listen to some Pablo Cruise and Journey and THEN listen to early 80s punk rock and you'll be a little closer to the correct mindset."
