Afros to Zotz

Valley girls. Quaaludes. Howard Cosell. K-tel

and eighties rule--as evidenced by anything
from Nickelodeon reruns to Brady Bunch movies.
Now, at last, there's Retro Hell, a sassy, knowing
travelogue through the best and worst of these
unforgettable decades, covering everything from
Earth Shoes to Schoolhouse Rock, Farrah Fawcett
to eight tracks.

Buster Generation's Collective Unconscious

 Who
Can It Be Now?
The Lyrics Game That Takes You Back to the '80S...One
Line at a Time
Peter Thomas Fornatale,
Frank R. Scatoni
Just when you thought the world was safe from
Dippety-Do, leg warmers, ripped clothing, and
Lionel Richie, here comes Who Can It Be Now?
The Lyrics Game That Takes You Back to the '80s
to resuscitate the long-lost songs that stubbornly
refuse to stay lost. Does "Oh, Daddy dear,
you know you're still number one" ring
any bells?
 Pcat
: Preparation for the Pop-Culture Aptitude Test
- Rad '80s Version
John Sellers
The PCAT is the only study guide that's truly
fun to read and play--a book that tests our
mastery of the really important stuff: mindless
pop-culture trivia. Equally enjoyable as nostalgic
memory sharpener or a New Wave party game, the
"PCAT" is loaded with truly gnarly
SAT-style questions that cover every major category
of 80s pop culture.
