hmm...i'll say approximately 1982 - 1989.
i probably bought more music in that time-frame then i have ever since. i think i may have been averaging thre or four albums (was i buying cassettes back then?) a week. for a teenager/college student, that's big dollars!
i absolutely loved the 80's man. i listened to just about everything from alphaville to zz top! those songs really do remind me of a care-free time.
but, i gotta say with this 80's resurgence, i'm starting to od on the stuff.

side note story. i think i had my fifteen minutes not that long ago. my company was having an 80's trivia contest. they had some sampler cd and was randomy playing snippets from it and seeing who could id the songs. i volunteered for my group and absolutely SLAUGHTERED everyone else. but the cd has stuff from romeo void, c-bank and trans-x -- so it was slightly challenging.
obviously they were all so amazed and impressed with my awesome 80's trivia knowledge.
