Stuck In Thee Garage #91: August 14, 2015

One of the great things about music is how it can transport you back in time. A song can remind you of a certain time and place and feeling. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from 1980 in hour 2. Granted, many listeners may not have even been alive 35 years ago, but for me, the songs I chose reminded me of being a budding 12-year-old music nerd. But if you don't have memories of '80, these songs are still pretty kickass.
