We’re kicking off 1989, and it’s going to be a fun month! Not only were the options for discussion plentiful, but we have The Giff back in the fold. We ease into the month by discussing Tom Petty’s (he has no haters) masterpiece Full Moon Fever. This was Pete’s choice. He spent many hours listening to Tom Petty driving to and from college (Brad did too). This album played a huge part in our lives during those years. But what did Giff think? Listen to find out. 

We also delve into our favorite albums and songs from 1989. Since this was middle school for us, the memories run deep. This was a year filled with tons of great music from a variety of genres. As usual keeping our lists to a top 5 was impossible. There’s something for everyone here. Girl, You Know it’s True!
