For both men and women, ’80s fashion created some iconic looks that we won’t soon forget, and in this Backtrack, for better or worse, we’re going to remind you of how we all dressed in the ’80s!

August 17, 2023Purple Rain
On August 3rd, 1983, less than a year before the release of Purple Rain, the attendees of a benefit concert for the Minnesota Dance Theatre, in Minneapolis, were witnesses to history. On that night, in the very first live performance by Prince and the newly minted Revolution, the public heard for the first time many of the songs that would, just 10 months later, thrust Prince into legend and mark a tectonic shift in the musical landscape that would reverberate for decade. In this Backtrack, we look back at, remember, and debate one of the greatest soundtracks of all time – Purple Rain.

August 03, 2023REWIND: Ads in Old Comic Books
How would you like to see through walls? How about becoming the big man on the beach in only a few weeks? Still no? Well how about growing your very own sea colony?

Come take a trip with us to look back on some of the strange, bizarre, and downright impossible things that were promised in old comic book advertisements.
