REGRESSION MIX 030
LISTEN HERE
Hello. Listen carefully! I am going to
take you back. Back to August 1988, when the Iran/Iraq war finally
ended in a ceasefire, and when an air show disaster in Germany, kills
70 people. Protests by the LGBTQ+ community take place against
‘Section 28’ of the law banning homosexuality in schools, and the
world was swept up with the excitement of the Summer Olympics in
Seoul. The comedy horror movie 'Beetlejuice' is a huge success, and
the film ‘The Blob’ is released in UK cinemas. Meanwhile on TV,
All About Eve attempt to perform their hit single on ‘Top Of The
Pops’, to much embarrassment when they are left on stage, not
miming to their single. Yazz remain at Number One throughout the
month, and ‘Kylie’ from Miss Minogue takes over at the top of the
album chart from ‘Now 12’! All those memories, feelings and long
past moments which made you who you are today. Now take a deep breath
and let’s begin…
