Schatgraven #1 – 1980: In Schatgraven (Treasure hunting) Popart dives for hidden pearls from a given year of pop history. In the first episode it’s all about 1980.
It’s the year that UB40 and U2 released their debut albums; the year that Ian Curtis, the singer of Joy Division, and Bon Scott, the singer of AC/DC, died and the year John Lennon was killed. That year musical movies like Fame, One Trick Pony and The Blues Brothers hit cinema’s all over the world. However, in our broadcast you will hear tracks from artists that are forgotten by most of us, or artists that were still unknown at the time, or only rose to fame much later. Moreover, we prefer to surprise you with rare editions, b-sides, bonus tracks and archival recordings.
