"The Two Coreys"

Corey Haim and Corey Feldman will star in a new reality series called none other than, "The Two Coreys".

The former child stars, both 35, were the teenage heartthrobs of the 1980's.

Now the pair will be reuniting for a reality television show in which the two Corey's and Feldman's wife live together. The show premieres in just over a month.

Besides both being child stars, the two Corey's have battled with drug and alcohol addiction in the past.

Says Feldman of his friend, "It was my belief that he was kind of a young doe lost amongst the wildebeests, and that we might never hear from him again until he ended up on the news. So the fact he actually suited up and came to the table and got his act together blew me away."

Corey Haim says working with Feldman has been a joy and that the two have gotten close once again, but that sometimes it's not easy living with the Feldman's.

"He does everything with his wife. It's like, 'Cut the umbilical cord, man...' It's a little overboard for my tastes, but that's just me being the jealous friend. I love Susan. It's just that I hate the fact that she's changed him so drastically... for the better."

To The Lip Synchers of the World..

In honor of the Britney Spears episode this weekend and all other musicians such as herself and Ashlee Simpson, I bring you Milli Vanilli and their video hit, 'Girl You Know It's True'.

Heh. You know you loved it!

I Love the 80's!

This time we're going with 'Sara' by Fleetwood Mac.

One of my all-time favorite songs, and I guess I would have to say that Fleetwood Mac is one of my favorite bands.

The first clip is Stevie Nicks singing 'Sara' live in 1983. (The song was originally released in 1979). Stevie is amazing live, even to this day.

In the second video is a 45 second clip of the band in the 70's in the recording studio working on 'Sara'. Lindsay Buckingham looks so young!

Enjoy it on this gorgeous Friday! We made it bitches!

What Happened to 'Baby'?

Jennifer Gray, 1980's movie actress best known for her role in 'Dirty Dancing', is nearly unrecognizable these days.














I haven't seen her in ages so I may be out of the loop, but wow! She doesn't even look like the same person.














Reminder: Botox is not always a good thing kiddos. It seems Jennifer has also had an eye lift and nose job as well. All the character is gone from her face. And she used to be so adorable..

Retro Album Cover of the Day

Artist: Echo & the Bunnymen
Title: Songs to Learn & Sing
Date: 1985
Label: Sire Records 25360-1


































Notes: Consisting of cuts previously released in 1981 thru 1984 this collection demonstrates the lighter edge of eighties angst. Melodies, fantastic guitar sounds and electronics all blend to make for a delicious stew. This is all in retrospect of course, I kind of dismissed these guys the first time around as disco marketed electo-dance. But no, on recent listenings these songs can stand on their own as classics of the period. I remember an ethereal video for the "Dancing Horses" cut and it was very similar to the shadowed front cover. Very nice indeed boys.

Retro Album Cover of the Day

Artist: Meat Puppets
Title: "Huevos"
Date: 1987
Label: SST Records SST 150
Cover: Curt
Sleeve Drawing: Cris
Sleeve Photo: Joe Cultice

Notes: From out of the scrub brush on the edge of the desert comes a trio who were making their brand of music well before alt-country and Americana were the new thing to come down the 'pike.
Don't get me wrong, I love the alt-America stuff, but there is something right and real about the Puppets and the songs they sing. This record is a bit more mellow than I remembered the first time around, but that in no way reduces the amount of pleasure to be gotten from a few repeated listenings.
The cover art appears to be painted in thick layers in a slightly southwestern palette. Hey, any cover with a bottle of Tabasco on it is welcome at my table, any meal of the day.

Retro Album Cover of the Day

Artist: The B52's
Title: Party Mix
Date: 1981
Label: Warner Brothers Records MINI 3596
Cover: Tony Wright

Notes: An early set of tunes by the B-52's on a 6 song EP. Remixed for party playing and group dancing. Cocktail madness well ahead of the curve the '52's were a band to reckon with. Big hair in a good way, flashy threads and harmonies that are out of this world. It's fun stuff from the colorful cover to the innermost grooves. Turn it up and watch 'em wriggle on the dance floor.

I Love the 80's - Roxy Music

Roxy Music are an English art rock group founded in the early 1970s by art school graduate Bryan Ferry (vocals and keyboards). The band existed from 1971 through 1983, then reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and have announced that they will be recording a new album in 2005-2006 for a 2007 release.

The group's name was partly an homage to the titles of old cinemas and dance halls, and partly a pun on the word 'rock.' (Ferry first named the band Roxy, but learning of an American band with the same name prompted the alteration of the name.)



The juxtaposition of nostalgic and contemporary (or futuristic) themes was a distinctive feature of the band, particularly in their earliest incarnation. The group is noted for their combination of idiosyncratic experimentation and sophisticated wit, evident in their literate lyrics, restrained instrumental virtuosity, and highly developed visual presentation (mainly directed by Ferry) which expropriated imagery from the realms of high fashion, kitsch, and commercial photography.

Roxy Music were a significant influence on the early English punk movement, as well as providing a model for many "New Wave" acts and the subsequent New Romantic and experimental electronic groups of the early 1980s. Ferry and co-founding member Brian Eno have also had broadly influential solo careers, and Eno in particular has emerged one of the most significant record producers of the late 20th century, with credits including landmark albums by acts such as Devo, Talking Heads and U2.
