Jazz In The 80's

Hi all ,
I've discovered there are quite a number of jazz listeners in this forum.I'm only just starting to appreciate jazz,but when i was younger in the 80's,there were quite a few memorable popular jazz instrumental tunes which were played on radio then in nigeria.I need to refresh my memory and i was wondering if the jazz "encyclopedias" in the forum could list a few jazz tunes which were popular back then that i can check out.
