Can you believe Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” is 40 years old? Seems like just yesterday we were hypnotized by its genius – and we still are.
This week’s installment includes songs by Toto, Bob Seger, Hall and Oates, Bonnie Tyler, Go West and Oingo Boingo.
Those songs that hit No. 2 on the charts but no further – our “close but no cigar” favorites – are back this week with the year 1988 – Part 3. Yes, 1988 was an odd year. Just ask fans of Robert Palmer, Elton John, Pebbles and more.
During the ’80s, Steve Martin gave us so much, including “All of Me,” “Pennies from Heaven,” “The Man With Two Brains,” “The Lonely Guy,” and maybe most impressively, 1989’s “Parenthood.”
If you’re a fan of horror movies in the ’80s, don’t miss our interview with “In Search of Darkness Part 3” writer/director David Weiner. We talk movie franchises, our favorite horror moments and get David’s recommendation on the one can’t-miss horror movie you probably never saw.
