Hard to believe, but that is almost a quarter century ago. Where does the time go?
This past Saturday, Wendy Rice went to this year on her Saturday Morning Flashback Show on WXRT, 93.1 FM, out of Chicago.
She does this every Saturday morning from 8 to noon. Not only does she play the music, but other XRT deejays have parts where they go to the movies, look at the news, list icons who died that year and, in addition, there are lots of facts from the particular year.
I was doing a lot of deejaying back in '86, so was doing a lot of listening to the radio to keep up with new new songs. And she played some great stuff:
YOU CAN CALL ME AL-- Paul Simon
SHIP OF FOOLS-- World Party
MISSIONARY MAN-- Eurythmics
STILL THE NIGHTS-- BoDeans
SLEDGEHAMMER-- Peter Gabriel
KISS-- Prince
WEST END GIRLS-- Pet Shop Boys
MEMPHIS THING-- Rob Junker
HARLEM SHUFFLE-- Rolling Stones
GUITAR TOWN-- Steve Earle
WILD THING-- Iggy Pop
More to Come. --RoadDog
DIDJA HEAR? He used to work in a blanket factory, but it folded.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
