Flashback Friday’s “Donna Summer”

imgDonna Summer4The “Queen Of Disco” Donna Summer was trained as a gospel singer before her introduction to the music industry and has always been known for her “powerhouse” vocal delivery. Though she is most notable for her disco hits, Summer’s repertoire has expanded to include contemporary R&B, rock, pop, and gospel. Summer is one of the most successful recording artists of the 1970s and was the first artist to have three consecutive double albums hit number one on the Billboard charts.

If you get a chance pick up “On The Radio, Greatest Hits” and you will be more than ready for the weekend!

Flashback Friday’s “Dynasty”

DynastyCast.0.0.0x0.300x362

Who could forget Dynasty and Blake Carrington! And the rivalry between Blake’s current and former wives was major drama! Alexis resents Krystle’s supplanting of her position as mistress of the Carrington household and tries to undermine her at every opportunity, while Krystle makes increasingly bold efforts to keep Alexis from interfering in the lives of their mutual loved ones. The pair have numerous verbal spats accented by slaps across the face, but more than once the altercations get more physical, just your good ol’ fashioned cat fights with glamour!

Check out this classic episode where Blake Carrington and Krystle Grant Jennings are getting married, but the arrival of Krystle’s ex-boyfriend leaves her with second thoughts.

Just hearing the theme song gets us excited! Enjoy…. Click here for video.

The Dick Van Dyke show ran from 1961-1966. Based on the role of Alan Brady. Many of the show’s plots were inspired by Reiner’s experiences as a writer for Your show of shows, but though he based the character of Rob Petrie on himself.

It is a funny and entertaining show that at times will have you laughing out of your seat. They are currently running on Hulu right now, so check one out and Happy Friday!

Flashback Fridays “Planet Of The Apes”

planet oneOne of our very favorite movies the original 1968 “Planet Of The Apes”. A science fiction film directed by Franklin J. Schaffner loosely based on the novel La planète des singes by Pierre Boulle.

Who could forget the three astronauts Taylor (Charlton Heston), Landon (Robert Gunner),  and Dodge (Jeff Burton) who  set off through the desert, finding first a single plant and then others. They find an oasis at the edge of the desert where they decide to go skinny dipping, ignoring strange ’scarecrows’. While they are swimming, their clothes are stolen. Pursuing the thieves, the astronauts find their clothes in shreds and the perpetrators — a group of mute, primitive humans — contentedly raiding a cornfield and then “Planet Of The Apes” was born.

If you never got the chance to see this movie go rent it now! We personally wanted to adopt the apes and bring them home.

Fun fact: In 2001, Planet of the Apes was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.

Flashback Friday’s “Stray Cat’s”

stray_catsIt is very rare that a group have  kids and parents as fans and at the same time!

The Stray Cats seemed to have done just that. A rockabilly band formed in 1979 by guitarist/vocalist Brian Setzer (Bloodless Pharaohs/Brian Setzer Orchestra) with school friends Lee Rocker and Slim Jim Phantom in the Long Island town of Massapequa, New York.

The group had several hit singles in the UK, Australia and the U.S. during the early 1980s. One of their biggest hits “Rock This Town” could be heard at every stop on Route 66!

The Stray Cats were inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame on October 15, 2006.

Take a trip down memory lane and enjoy one of their videos below:

Flashback Fridays “Pat Benatar”

Pat Benatar one

Some might give credit to Madonna or Christina Aguilera for repping the strong-independent- sexual- female but we give that credit to the amazingly talented Pat Benatar!

The daughter of a sheet-metal worker and a beautician who once sang with the New York City Opera, Benatar soon became on of the top-selling female artists of all-time, and one of the 1980s Top Platinum Album Recipients,according to the Recording Industry Association of America with 12.5 million certified units, including two RIAA-certified Multi-Platinum albums, five RIAA-certified Platinum albums, three RIAA-certified Gold albums, plus 19 Top 40 singles to her credit.

Damn!

Pat Benatar has a way of making you feel like you can accomplish anything as a woman and stomp on any heartbreak that comes your way and to this day the effect of her music is the same.

Check out Pat Benatar in the video below. One of her finest performances of “Heartbreaker”. Enjoy!
