End Of The Century presents:
L.J. bogs down into the mire that is 1983!
Today, from 3 to 5 p.m., L.J. hosts End of the Century!
When L.J. last hosted, he stopped at 1982, so this show is going to be all 1983!
1983 is a fascinating year for music as we see the pop landscape fragment into a lot of different directions and new genres develop their tropes. Some of the heavy hitters in 1983: #Eurythmics! #Madonna! #Metallica! #NewOrder! #ZZTop! #ThePolice!

End Of The Century presents:
Picking up with 1981 and 1982 (L.J. Hosts)
When I hosted End of the Century four weeks ago, I focused on 1975 to 1981. I’m picking up with 1981 and 1982 for this show. I’m also slowing my roll a little; trying to choose a few songs from each year between 1975 and 1980 proved to be too ambitious. So, I’m just looking at two years, and maybe dipping my toe into 1983.
