Tracks 83: Music Mix 1986 Part II


The world was introduced with the first case of Mad Cow Disease, in 1986. The Soviet Union also launched their Mir space station, and the Rutan Voyager flew around the world without stopping or refueling.

1986 also gave us plenty of great songs, such as John Mellencamp's Small Town and R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A., Michael McDonald's Sweet Freedom, The Bangles' Manic Monday, Bon Jovi's You Give Love a Bad Name, and Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer. We were also introduced to a new subgenre that combined rock and rap with Run-DMC's and Aerosmith's Walk This Way.
