Tunes Tuesday – Tom Petty – I Won’t Back Down

For those who stand their ground this song is for you. Rock on good people.

Music Monday – Beastie Boys “Sabotage” #StarTrekBeyond #StarTrek

In the first and third Star Trek movies produced by JJ Abrams this song by The Beastie Boys is featured. In the future world in which this song is played this music is considered classical. Enjoy this classic from the 1980’s.

Flashback Friday – The Star Trek Original Opening Montage #startrekmovie #fbf

Viewing the two most recent Star Trek movies is a must to prepare for the new movie “Star Trek: Beyond”. I hope to be seeing it tonight. This is the opening sequence from the original TV series.

Throwback Thursday – Genesis – Land Of Confusion #TBT

From the group Genesis this takes a hard look at the events of the day in the 1980’s. There was a lot of confusion as to what was good and bad, much like today.

Wayback Wednesday – Public Enemy – Fight The Power

The spirit and raw power of their lyrics make this a classic. It also has a timeless message. Public Enemy remains one of the genre’s best groups.

Tunes Tuesday – Living Colour – Cult of Personality

This song from 1988 (the year I graduated from High School) still resonates with me because of its message and ferocity. The group knows how to tell a story about people who have become a cult of personality.
