Sheriff Picks: Guitar Tabs of Music from the 1980s

The Sheriff | MXTabs.netAh, the eighties – what an amazing decade of music, fueled by the increased use of synthesizers and drum machines, the creation of MTV, and the emergence of Hard Rock, Alternative Rock, and New Wave as dominant musical genres.

It was such an amazing decade of music, in fact, that it was difficult to narrow down this list of Song Tabs of Music from the 1980s to an acceptable length. I was able to persevere though, and what I ended up with, I think, is a nice assortment of personal favorites, power ballads (for the infomercial lover in all of us), underground rockers, and pop hits. So grab your hairspray, put on your best pair of acid-washed jeans, and get ready to rock out to some totally bodacious 1980s Guitar, Bass, and Drum Tabs, brought to you courtesy of MXTabs.net.
