It’s An 80s Thing #56 – Black & White (Our Hard Rock & Hair Metal Edition)

After providing data for hundreds of Soundwaves 10@10 episodes, Intern Steve steps into the spotlight with a deep dive into All Things 80s. Almost every episode will be two parts … each half a distinctly different subject from its counterpart … seemingly unrelated pop culture and music topics that (more often than not) will have a connection!

Today we’re going to hear the only artist to receive Grammy nominations spanning 5 different genres. We are going to hear the hair metal track that snuck into the 99th position of the top 100 tracks on the year end Billboard Hot 100 in 1987 and we’re going to hear some Whitesnake garbage but we redeem ourselves . . . You’ll hear all of that and more in this edition of IA8T.
