Listen Later

Episode 111: After being bumped for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame announcement, Joe and Kari finally bring you Hi-NRG! From Donna Summer to Tarzan Boy, your hosts discuss the roots of this energetic genre which got started in dance clubs in the late 70s. 

Your hosts discuss the origin story of the Hit Factory of Stock, Aitken, and Waterman and how they initially had money problem; but that all changed after they became involved in Hi-NRG. Kari and Joe have some opinions on the genre, have some theories about  the Hit Factory's money woes, and tell a story about a young errand boy who would never give up.

Next is Just a Bit Outside, where it is all about eyes. Kari and Joe  talk about Sad Eyes, Lonely Eyes, and get confused along the way. What they aren't confused about is how George Tobin ripped off The Bee Gees.
