Another one born too late for this era but absolutely love it. So much variety from Parliament funk to Gary Numan, Kraftwerk and stuff. I've recently discovered a whole world of post punk Japanese music from the late 70s early 80s that explains the undercurrent of references to Japan in a lot of the British pop at that time.

Most famous probably ymo - firecracker

Adam Ant was and is a legend, I saw him and his new band at Brighton Centre a couple of years ago. Prince Charming is still a big hit at the clubs.

Probably not going to get more out there than Boyd rice. I pretty much expect nobody to know who he is. He is a very niche taste, and I will completely understand if you Google, and then come back and ask me if I am deaf (he actually did a colab with someone and called it 'easy listening for the hard of hearing').
