So, today we do things a little different, instead of my usual Gospel release I’m doing something not Gospel – we have Taunnie’s 1984 pop release on Thunderbolt Records, “Boy Shoppin’” – and I have to say, with a back cover like that, reading over the liner notes and seeing it’s like a song of...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I like Traci Lords as an actress, I’m sure she’s a very nice person too. But that album cover… why is she surrounded by anal beads? So, the album opens with the “Perfecto Mix” and it starts off alright, nothing overly bassy or techno sounding, but hey,... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Basically, a long time ago, long before other certain former Olympic gold medalists were all over the news, Carl Lewis was one of the big shots.

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I don’t even know where this record came from.

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, back in the late 80’s, Jon Cryer (Alan Harper from “Two and a Half Men“) was coming off a series of film roles, “Pretty in Pink” and “Superman IV: The Quest for Peace” (to name a few.) when he starred in the movie “Hiding Out” where...

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Bob Geldof is genius. Enough said. The album opens with the track “A Hold of Me” – which is an amazing track and you could solely base a whole album off of it. The Rats definitely have the chemistry together that not a lot of musicians can... Read More »
The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: Love the film, love Tatum O’Neal – the soundtrack is better with the movie. Though, I am quite disappointed the soundtrack doesn’t feature Irene Cara’s song “Certain Fury” as, I was pretty sure it was for this film… I may be wrong? Anyways, I could review the... Read More »
