Yeah, I could go along with this. My own favorites from this era tend to be almost 100% punk/new wave, so I'd probably be perceived as more biased, but... well, you're still going to want to check out that Ruts album.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
