Compared to 1980, 1981 is definitely a major improvement as it at least has a plentora of fantastic tracks to offer. Still not a great time for mainstream music, especially with the assault of forgettable soft rock, pop soul and AOR songs. But very much caught in the transition of the much more exciting new wave and synthpop's invasion at least.
