In the series ‘Schatgraven’ (Treasure hunt), Maurice Dumont selects forgotten gems from a certain year of our pop history. Tonight that’s 1981, the year of hits like “Tainted Love” by Soft Cell, “In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins, and “Why, Tell Me Why” by the Dutch Anita Meyer. But you will hear none of that tonight. We will mainly play tracks by artists that have become forgotten, such as The Chicanes and Mood Six, or would only later become really popular, like the British band Pulp and singer Tracy Thorn.
