THROWBACK THURSDAYS: WHAT HAPPENED TO NU NU???
Here’s an interesting case of “hey, what happened?”
LIDELL TOWNSELL – NU NU
You won’t often see this single included in any CLASSIC HOUSE compilations, despite the fact that it was a #1 HIT back in 1992. It’s possible that you recognize it from a movie soundtrack, or…
THROWBACK THURSDAYS: WILL WE EVER SEE ANOTHER RAY CHARLES?
Posted in HEADUCATION, OLDIES
Image has become so vitally important in music. It’s not necessarily that today’s artists need to be pretty (although that helps immensely), but they do need to visually fit the musical style that they are representing. I doubt we’ll ever see another performer, like RAY CHARLES, rise to fame. That’s not the only thing that…
THROWBACK THURSDAYS: OF JAM & OF SPOON

THROWBACK THURSDAYS: ALL THAT I WANT IS AN ACE OF BASE REUNION
Posted in HEADUCATION, OLDSCHOOL
Generally, we consider great music to come from passion inspired artistic expression. Isn’t it funny how, when it comes to POP music, that isn’t necessarily the case, at all?
ACE OF BASE – ALL THAT SHE WANTS
Following ABBA‘s lead for arrangement, 3 Swedish siblings, and a mutual friend formed…
THROWBACK THURSDAYS: THE TEMPTATIONS SING SMOKEY
Let’s go back to a simpler time in music. Back to the year 1964, when MOTOWN ruled the charts.
THE TEMPTATIONS – MY GIRL
It’s one of the greatest songs of all time, largely due to the catchiness of the opening guitar riff which, for you music nerds, is a perfect C…
THROWBACK THURSDAYS: EXPLANING PINK FLOYD TO GEN Y
Posted in HEADUCATION, OLDIES
WISH YOU WERE HERE is a song and album that has been written about over and over again, in meticulous detail, by people far better researched and more connected with the music than I could ever be. I don’t have any unique perspective or new light to shed on this song, which is, without argument,…
THROWBACK THURSDAYS: PUT IT IN YOUR WORD OF MOUTH
Who’s in the mood for some risque material? Read on…
AKINYELE – PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH
What’s amazing about this RAUNCH RAP hit is how well known it is, despite having so many factors holding it back. In 1996, the popularity that sexually explicit HIP-HOP gained in the…
