Finding 1988

I'm not sure about your experience, but when I look back on the music of 1988, there are not very many things that have stood the test of time. However, that is not to say that 1988 did not offer some good music. This episode is another in our time machine series. Here we return to 1988 in hopes of finding the best or most meaningful music in that year.
