Every now and again I make mixed CDs for my friends, purely for educational purposes ....
I'm working on one now that's a bit of a hodge podge of 70's and 80's glam-rock, post punk....well, anywhere he's what I have so far:
Joy Division - She's Lost Control
Velvet Underground - What Goes On
The Smiths - Jack the Ripper
Lou Reed - Sweet Jane
The Church - Under the Milky Way
Bowie - Drive in Saturday
Echo and the Bunnymen .... can't decide between Pictures on my Wall or The Killing Moon
a Cure song as yet to be determined....kind of narrowed it down to Burn, Charlotte Sometimes, or Last Dance
Queen - Killer Queen
I'm looking for around 8 or 9 more to fill up the CD....Anyone have any ideas?

The Stranglers song Strange Little Girl, Marianne Faithfull songs, and Wild One and of course some Marc Bolan...Cosmic Dancer is his most famous. Maybe throw in some songs from the movie Velvet Goldmine as well.

Motley Crue - Dr Feelgood
The Jam - Going Underground
Can't go wrong with either.

You could also try
Whitesnake - Mean Business (from the Love Hunter album)
Twisted Sister - I wanna Rock
W.A.S.P. - 95 - N.A.S.T.Y. (from their Inside the Electric Circus album)
Motorhead - Overkill/Bomber
Thats all I can think of at the moment.

Okay, here are some of my recommendations:
The Sisters of Mercy - Neverland
Annie Lennox - No More I Love You's
Klaus Nomi - Nomi Song
Morrissey - All You Need is Me
And well, that's it for now.

Hmm...I like Bowie a lot, but I think I like his later songs more. I'm not familiar with glam-rock. Do you like freestyle? A little known performer called Sunni had one cd and she had a nice sound and a sweet voice. Also Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam. Perhaps look on youtube if you haven't heard of them. I've not heard of any of the bands you listed other than Bowie. ^_^ I'm going to go check them out myself. Good luck with your cd. Try searching sites like youtube for new to you bands?
