Hit song from early 90’s...but yeah, had more of an 80’s vibe.
Ok, I can’t disagree. But still not too shabby.
Patrick Nagel, creator of the portrait for the Rio album cover, is one of my all-time favorite graphic artists.
I was trying to look up some people I knew back in the 80s so I set up a classmates.com account.
Why? There's Facebook? Sure. However, despite being mostly an email harvesting site, classmates.com actually has perhaps the greatest repository of complete full-page scanned high school yearbooks from nearly every high school in America going back to the early 80s.
Down the rabbit hole I went, clicking page after page of various 80s-90s yearbooks of schools that I never went to.
And, damn. Life was different back then. And so were the girls.
The chick I posted up above? She was on every high school cheerleading squad forty years ago.
Then Robert Palmer brought them to life in videos.
I know. I remember.
The miniskirts they wore were as short as bathing suits.
And there were so many.
This one?
Or this one?
I’ll see that and raise you one - “Whipped Cream & other Delights” by Herb Alpert!
..I change my mind…
Martin Denny’s “Primitivia”!
Yes I remember that album! I played trumpet/coronet and many other brass instruments 5th, 6th, and 7th grades (’67-’70) and Herb Albert was a big deal for me. Tried hard to copy his style.
I never thought about that but you're right.
They were all Nagel girls.
