MY MIXED TAPE - FEBRUARY 1989


Here's another '80's mix tape from my personal collection. Early 1989 saw Paula Abdul breakout with her 3rd single "Straight Up", Debbie Gibson hit #1 with her ballad "Lost In Your Eyes", Erasure called out for "A Little Respect"(#14), The Escape Club followed up their #1 hit "Wild, Wild West" with the #28 charting "Shake For The Sheik", New Edition hit #1 on the R&B chart with "Can You Stand The Rain", Canadian pop singer Candi hits with her second single "Under Your Spell". Duran Duran hit #22 with "All She Wants Is", and rapper Tone Loc makes his debut with "Wild Thing"(#2). I guess I was still heavy into pop music back in 1989. What were you listening too 22 years ago?
