Okay peeps,
Let's test your "Old School" music knowledge.
I'm trying to make a cd that has 80's era old school music.
This is the music we heard at backyard parties and in T.J.
I'm drawing a blank. I'm sure a lot of you can help.
These are examples of what I'm talking about:
Lisa Lisa-"I wonder if you take me home"
Grandmaster Melle Mel-"White lines"
Doug E. Fresh-"The show"
Boogie Boys-"A Fly Girl"
Sugar Hill Gang-"Rappers Delight"
