In the 2nd part of 1981 album releases, the months of June-early October are covered. Well known acts such as the Rolling Stones released an album, as did relatively unknown acts (at that time) like Prince. What did teenage Joe think of all of these releases, and how far would his $5 weekly allowance take him in purchasing all of the music he wanted?
The year 1981 was tremendous for album releases. Hear what teenage Joe thought and some of his experiences with the albums (and songs) that came out in the first part of the year.
I recently published a book (available on Amazon) about a teen age male back in the late 1970s/early 1980s who kept a 5 year diary. Read his trials and tribulations in his own words!
The recent indictment of former President Trump got me thinking. What other presidential scandals have there been throughout our history?
I came across a list of albums that have sold over 40 million copies. With the new way we consume music, no other album may join this exclusive club. Hear what makes these albums worthy.
Former Texas Lieutenant Governor, Ben Barnes clears his conscience about the 1980 presidential election. Hear my reaction.
Are step parents loving or evil (like in Disney's Cinderella)? Hear what my conclusion is.
The Citizenship Test I took last week had two questions where George Washington was the correct answer. I started wondering what it was about him, or what he did, that we have the capital city of our nation (as well as an entire state) named after this man. Hear what I learned and the new appreciation I have for what he did for our country.
How would people born in the US and schooled in the US do on the citizenship test?
The soundtrack of my life would be incomplete without including Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members Heart. Join me in this retrospective on their career, along with samples of their music and personal stories of how they may have influenced my upbringing.
