Last week, we took a glance at a few hit singles from the summer of ’79. The songs were incredibly diverse – sometimes great, sometimes flat-out awful (see last week’s playlist to see for yourself).
Anyway, playing the singles naturally made me curious about the album tracks of that era, and a bit of research blew me away. There was an abundance of great albums from the summer of ’79, so many that I could never even hope to fit them all in one show, so here is part one. We’ll follow up with parts 2 and 3 (and maybe even 4) in upcoming weeks.
Songs from today’s show include;
1) When Did You Stop Loving Me.... - Marvin Gaye
2) Tragedy - The Bee Gees
3) Rebellious Jukebox - The Fall
4) Green Shirt - Elvis Costello & the Attractions
5) Ain't That a Shame - Cheap Trick
6) Dance the Night Away v- Van Halen
7) Beating Around the Bush - AC/DC
8) Arrow Through Me - Wings
