Completely Conspicuous 391: I'm the Man

Quick hit episode this week as I discuss the power of a song. Listen to the episode below or download directly (right click and "save as").

Show notes:
- In 1979, I listened to Toronto's CHUM-AM all the time
- Used to collect the Top 30 singles chart every Friday
- A song that captured my imagination was Joe Jackson's "I'm the Man"
- The clock radio was important
- Couldn't get enough of "I'm the Man"
- Still powerful after all these years
- Jackson's best work was in the late '70s/early '80s
