LJ hosts End of the Century!
He has now reached to 𝟭𝟡𝟡𝟴 in his slower than pitch tar creep of a survey of the years covered by this show.
What was going on in ’98?
β€’ Brandy and Monica duel it out on their hit single “The Boy is Mine.”
β€’ Will Smith gets “Jiggy wit it.” Because in 1998 he was still a music artist, not an actor. He also seemed a bit, perhaps, happier then.
β€’ Dave Navarro’s brief stint with The Red Hot Chili Peppers comes to an end.
β€’ Cher believes in life after love… and autotune.
β€’ George Michael engages in a “subconsciously deliberate act” in a Beverly Hills public restroom.
None of this will be played on this afternoon’s show! (LJ has to clear room for one of the best albums ever made…)

End Of The Century presents:

DAF - Alles ist Gut

When I hosted End of the Century four weeks ago, I focused on 1975 to 1981.Β  Β I’m picking up with 1981 and 1982 for this show.Β  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.Β  So, I’m just looking at two years, and maybe dipping my toe into 1983.
