By 1988, the singles charts had deteriorated so badly that is was laughable – well, it wasn’t laughable if you were living through it and listening to top 40 radio. Thank goodness for the album tracks that saved the day.
Here’s a list of music covered in today’s program;
1) Tunnel of Love – Bruce Springsteen
2) I Saw HIM Standing There- Tiffany
3) Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay – Michael Bolton
4) If I Had a Boat – Lyle Lovett
5) Give Back My Heart – Lyle Lovett
6) Everybody Knows – Leonard Cohen
7) I’m Your Man – Leonard Cohen
8) Tall Cool One – Robert Plant
