Tracks 83: Music Mix 1988 Part II


Calgary Canada hosted the Winter Olympics and Seoul, Korea hosted the Summer Olympics, the island of Jamaica was hit by Hurricane Gilbert, and the Iran - Iraq War ended after 8 years. In U.S. politics, George H. W. Bush defeats Democratic challenger Michael Dukakis. 

For me, as a 12 year old kid who loved watching MTV, the most memorable music videos were INXS' A New Sensation and Michael Jackson's The Way You Make Me Feel. The lead singer for INXS, Michael Hutchence, epitomized rock star and sexy, in the late 80s. And the model, Tatiana Thumbstzen, in Michael Jackson's music video, was mesmerizing in beauty.
