Glenn Frey



Frey helped form the Eagles, playing guitar and keyboards. After the Eagles disbanded, Frey found solo success in the 1980s, especially with two #2 hits: the soundtrack songs "The Heat Is On" (from Beverly Hills Cop) and "You Belong to the City" (from the television series Miami Vice)

Name and number



They appeared out of nowhere, as if they were transported from a parallel universe wherein blue-eyed soul was seen as rock & roll's salvation in the late 80s. Likeminded groups like Johnny Hates Jazz, Waterfront, Living in a Box, and Curiosity
Killed the Cat all debuted and disappeared at the same time.

Of the four Curiosity Killed the Cat leaned more towards the teen girl population that hung Smash Hits posters on their bedroom walls. The band's lightweight funk and photogenic looks rewarded them with mainstream acceptance in their native England but America didn't budge.

Frankie Knuckles part 2



Warehouse resident Frankie Knuckles did his mix of this timeless disco/house classic in 1983. This is easily one of my alltime favorite tunes. Considered a "must-be" on every greatest disco tracks list. *In the late great Christopher voice* - If you don't know, now you know...
