Stuck In Thee Garage #356: January 15, 2021

Around this time in 1991, the U.S. was getting ready to begin Operation Desert Storm by bombing Iraq and Kuwait. It was a memorable and stress-inducing time, to say the least. Thirty years later, we've still got crazy stuff going on, unfortunately. But this week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from 1991 in hour 2. And I'm confident that it's good enough, it's smart enough, and doggone it, people like it.
