1. Information Society - What's On Your Mind

Heavy on the frequent fliers so far, with the exception of the TOTHK.

Not a FF in total, but it has seen regular spins in recent years, so its novelty is
wearing off.  AL mentioned the Nimoy nod in the backsell.


(Fatal Attraction clip - Glenn Close)

Also, Fatal Attraction was released in 87, just sayin'.

Yep, which is why that was a clip from Dangerous Liaisons.


10. Salt-N-Pepa - Push It

A bustout, and the first appearance on 10@10 by Salt-N-Pepa.

ETA:  Kind of cutting-edge in its day -- an early female rap group in a very male-dominated
genre.  Now being used to hawk car insurance on television.  I'm wondering when I'll be
hearing Ron DMC and Beastie Boys on elevator muzak.

couldn't listen but except for the S&P bustout, not exactly earth-shattering, I'd say.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

'77 Monday, '88 Wednesday... '99 Thursday?  '66 Friday!

Well, you nailed the pattern if not the order. Digging the swinging sounds of '66 today, and hoping for a typical AL treatment of '99 tomorrow.
Let's get right to it.

Well, that would explain it. I stand corrected.
