Outsider Oldies - Too Cool to Dance: 1970s-’80s Power Pop

On this episode of Outsider Oldies, host Rich Tupica compiled an angsty yet hook-filled batch of power pop tracks from the late 1970s and early-’80s. From dramatic breakups (“Life Without You”) to bizarre novelty tunes (“Busy Kids”), this tracklist spans all emotions — but all come with earworm guitar riffs. Here’s a glimpse at the earliest days of post-Beatles power pop.
