This week’s Old School Friday theme is “Outside my box.” I’ve found that my musical box has expanded in my old(er) age, and includes folks like “Steely Dan” But for this week’s theme I’ll go with Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” I wouldn’t have been caught dead listening to this...
Pretty tough category and a lot of ways to go with this one. I first thought about Prince, but then there’s not a lot of Prince footage on the web. Mary J is my girl and I could always throw up one of her joints. But I decided to go...
Sorry I’ve missed the last couple of OSF’s but I’m back with a vengence this week. The theme is Best Soul Train Performances. I’m not sure which is crazier in this video, how good James Brown is or Don Cornelius’ outfit. Here’s James Brown and Make it Funky. Check Out...
This was an ambiguous theme to say the least: “If I were a boy/girl.” I’m not in the mood to stray very far this week, so I’ll go with the dull and boring choice of Prince’s If I was your girlfriend. Happy OSF
The theme for Old School Friday this week is “child hood singers.” We’ve already done the New Edition and Jacksons thing, so here are a few oldies but goodies for the younguns. Happy OSF!!!! Monica – Don’t Take It Personal I remember this being the hit in ’95 when I...
With about an hour to spare, here is my OSF pick for this week. The theme is songs with heart in the title. Belated Happy OSF. New Edition – N.E. Heatbreak (extended) Mint Condition – Breaking My Heart I saw these cats in concert a couple of years ago. They’re...
HAPPY OLD SCHOOL FRIDAY!!! Man what a treasure trove of great songs to choose from, so excuse me for breaking the rules and posting an extra song. Whip Appeal, Poison, Hold On. I really wanted to go with Ice Cube’s “Once Upon a Time in Projects” but not sure Dallas...
Of course this week’s theme of the Jackson’s should be easy. Throw up “Billie Jean” , “Thriller” and “Control ” and call it a day right? But we’re supposed to dig a little and there’s so much to choose from. So let’s see what you think of what I came...
This week’s Old School Friday Theme is the Blues. I’ve got to go with Johnny Taylor’s “Last Two Dollars.” There’s another guy singing it on this YouTube Clip, but the song is great. Happy Old School Friday!
Thursday nights back in the day were all about NBC. Different World, The Keaton’s (Family Ties) Cheers, eventually Seinfeld, I loved them all. But of course the king of the roost was The Cosby Show. The season premier of Cosby became like a Michael Jackson video debut once they started...
