That ad should be sent to the Smithsonian to represent the times.
'Everybody was kung-fu fighting" came to mind when I was looking at it.
On the other hand, I would buy a number of those items if they were up-dated to a current design.
Well, maybe not the Ovation "muscle shirt". |

Or maybe the movie "Flashdance"....which was a big hit the year before, so maybe there was more than a little inspiration there?????

mustaches-- now it's like, "What a dork!" |

And some of these songs don't totally suck. Kinda like what bikers say about fat girls and motorcycles..... ;) |
