Featured Replies

Today has I was delivering packages I was listening to a lot of songs from '83/'84 that took me back to, what was going to be and what was, my senior year at NewCath (June of '83 thru May '84)........Lots of great MEMORIES came flooding back and I can't believe it's been over 30 years since then.

 

So what is your Top 10 Albums from your senior year (using the June thru following May scale above).

Funny story about VH's, 1984.........it was released on Jan. 9th, 1984, but had gotten some radio airplay prior. A week after returning to school from Christmas Break, the senior guys at NewCath had Retreat in Dayton, Oh for a week....NO RADIO's, NO TV, NO NOTHING!!!!!!! When we got back home I was like a crack-head looking for a fix of 1984. :lol2:
