History
Reception
The Daily Oklahoman television critic Sandi Davis said that VH1 The Big 80's, a 1996 compilation album of 15 of the program's most popular songs, is "a sure crowd pleaser at parties for those who recall the days of gaudy clothes and makeup".[3] Nisid Hajari of the Entertainment Weekly wrote of the compilation, "the musical equivalent of a fluff video — 15 songs that share the polished, electronic sheen of TV. That tinny drum-track abandon can provide a refreshing, lighthearted break from the current miasma of geeks with guitars."[4]
