Athens , Dead Milkmen , Flaming Lips , Georgia , Huey Lewis and the News , Let It Be , Pere Ubu , Scott Creney , Straight Edge. Purple Rain , Sub Pop , Zen Arcade
American cities with thriving music scenes in 1984 overlooked by Huey Lewis & The News in their #1 US Pop Hit ‘The Heart Of Rock And Roll’

Death Rattle – The Stone Roses, Primal Scream, Oasis and the travesty of British Alternative Rock in the 90s
