Art College Disco circa 1983 - 1987

 I have been reminiscing recently about the old Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art disco, and even made myself a Spotify playlist in honour of  Dunc and the great times had there. I'm sure in addition to the list there was a liberal smattering of Public Enemy, James Brown, Rip Rig and Panic, The Higsons, The Pop Group, PIL and many others. I wasn't sure if I captured all the key tracks but Dunc recons "I pretty much nailed it". So lets party like its 1983 ...
