Disco Kryptonite. 2008-03-20 21:39:00 "Jam On It (Special Remix)" - Newcleus
These guys started out as Jam-On Productions in Brooklyn, New York and they grew to be phenoms because of their block party success in 1979. These block parties were held outdoors in neighborhoods and the power for the DJ's sound system was ripped off the street lights most of the time. This song has been said by many to have been way ahead of it's time in Read more:Kryptonite

No title 2008-03-27 18:06:00 "Romancing The Stone (Extended Version)" - Eddy Grant
An even longer jam than the version on the LP, "Going For Broke", which was edited for the 7". Since the song barely even made an appearance in the movie it was commissioned for, I'm barely going to mention the movie here: "Romancing The Stone" starred Kathleen Turner, Michael Douglas and Danny DeVito about a big jewel. There. Now that that's

Let's get right to it: After the huge success of the LP "Shake It Up" in 1982, The Cars went on hiatus and frontman Ric Ocasek and keyboardist Greg Hawkes both recorded solo records. They reunited 2 years later for the mega-smash, "Heartbeat City". The 1st single, "You Might Think", earned The Cars "Video Of the Read more:passed

Prince's first sign to his newly-formed Paisley Park Records in 1985.

The band was led by Paul Peterson (renamed St. Paul for this project). Except for
