That girl's a super freak...

Stopped at Border's during lunch. I picked up the Only Dance 1980-1984 comp. Check this shit out:

Rick James - Super Freak Part 1
Blondie - Rapture (white girls can't rap)
Stray Cats - Rock This Town
The Go Go's - We Got The Beat (and a nasty coke habit)
Gap Band - You Dropped A Bomb On Me
Herbie Hancock - Rockit
Talking Heads - Burning Down The House
The Pretenders - Back On The Chain Gang
Billy Ocean - Carribean Queen (Bryan's feelin' this...ask him to sing it for you sometime)
Kool & The Gang - Ladies Night (Da Brat not included)
Toni Basil - Mickey (I heard a version of this en espanol that was super funny)
The Fixx - One Thing Leads To Another
Denice Williams - Let's Hear It For The Boy
Hall & Oates - You Make My Dreams
Sheena Easton - Strut (Och, tha' lassie's hoot, mon!)
Devo - Whip It (not "Whip-it's". There are better ways of getting high.)
Ray Parker Jr. - The Other Woman (Who ya gonna call?)
Laura Branigan - Self Control
K.C. & The Sunshine Band - Please Don't Go (Didn't realize they put anything out in the 80s)
Shannon - Let The Music Play


I also got a Rick James "Best Of" CD.

As much as I bitch about how the 80s were devoid of decent music, I guess there's some good stuff.

I totally understand...that's one smooth cat, that Billy Ocean.

Not as smooth as Barry White, though.
