Episode #30: Austria is in the house! PLUS - Pac-Man and Geddy Lee both go pop... in the same week. Was this REALLY the 1st "rap song" to go #1? Is THIS the best power-pop song of the entire decade? A TON of 1983 tidbits -Why did my Mom give me the haircut of an early 80s British pop-soul frontman? Hugh Padgham: Unsung Hero Of The Phil Collins Drum Sound! ....and... the 1st time I had Chicken McNuggets!!! (DUN-DUN-DUN!). Huey Lewis vs. "Ghostbusters". The top 25 hit inspired by "The Terry Fox Story." Why did I buy a Richard Marx record I didn't like? Reagen gets shot, Lloyd Lindsey Young memories and WAY too much Jimmy Buffet! Its "This Week In The 80s", the 4th week of March. Thanks for listening! #TWIT80s
