The Sound of Style: 1980-1990

The Hawk continues to celebrate the Sound of Style, looking at music and fashion's love affair since the 1960s. Plus another US state features in 50 States in 50 Plays.

We celebrate The Sound of Style season, a collaboration between 成人快手 Four and 6 Music looking at the love affair and inextricably linked relationship between fashion and music since the 1960s.

Episode three of 成人快手 Four's three-part series, Oh You Pretty Things, airs tonight at 9pm. It is narrated by Lauren Laverne and each episode is sound-tracked by a 6 Music presenter, bringing their music expertise to showcase the social history, sounds and looks of the period. Steve Lamacq has sound-tracked tonight's episode, which looks at the 1980s. Across the day, 6 Music shows will be styling their music and chat around the 80s, playing the tracks Lamacq has selected - plus other gems from that decade - and hearing from Lamacq about his music choices.

On each Wednesday the series airs, 6 Music will be playing music across the shows reflecting the years covered in that evening's programme, so today will be styling their music and chat around the 1980s.

Plus, Another US state features in '50 States in 50 Plays'. Presenter Chris 'The Hawk' Hawkins challenges his listeners to help him compile the ultimate list of songs mentioning every state in the USA, all 50 of them!

Songs might include Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Sweet 成人快手 Alabama', The Eagles' 'Hotel California' or Frank Sinatra's 'New YorK New York'.
