Yikes, it’s been 20 years already! [lastfm]Stevie Ray Vaughan[/lastfm] died, Nelson Mandella was released from prison, “Seinfeld” debuted, and [lastfm]Midnight Oil[/lastfm]‘s Blue Sky Mining topped the XRT Listener Poll. The songs that forced me to crank up the studio monitors this morning included “Spin” by [lastfm]Wire Train[/lastfm], “I Don’t Know Why I Love You” by [lastfm]The House of Love[/lastfm], [lastfm]Los Lobos[/lastfm]‘ “I Can’t Understand”, and I’ve always been a sucker for the late [lastfm]Michael Hutchence[/lastfm]‘s playful vocals and Charlie Musselwhite’s harp workout on “Suicide Blonde”. Hope you can join me next week for 1984!
