I'm a guitarist from the '80s, and I still have never heard of "Nederpop."

What is it? Pop music from the Netherlands?

Radar Love, man.

I saw them open up for Pat Benatar at the L.A. Sports Arena. This must have been back around 1980. They played a strange set: Radar Love, Twilight Zone, and nothing else. Just two songs, both of which they turned into extended jams.

They were surprisingly good.

Kajagoogoo: The Hair Club For Men version?

My god. That's some of the worst stuff I've ever heard. Or seen. When it comes to Euros from the Continent, those dudes have always had a screw loose. Nobody should have ever introduced those people to Casio keyboards.

Can't believe SRV is from that same era.

I make no claims as to the quality of the video I posted. It was the first thing to come up when I Googled Nederpop. But now I'm an expert

What about ZZ Top? Started out in 1969, never broke up, never had a lineup change, still going strong. Golden Earring saw various lineup changes over the years.

There are probably other examples, but ZZ Top immediately leapt to mind.

"Says some DJ somewhere at some point."

I first saw ZZ Top in concert at The 2Bitter bar in San Marcos, TX in 1975. In keeping with the bar name, the cover charge was $.25. They were a great blues band even then, though I may have been too preoccupied with a certain young co-ed to notice. I wonder where she is today?
