Cheryl Ladd, singer?
I had no idea but it’s true. This song was Cheryl Ladd’s most popular song, peaking at #34 on the U.S. charts. This was during her second season on Charlie’s Angels.
Enjoy!

Song of the Day: Main Title Theme From Scarface by Giorgio Moroder
Why not? It is Al Pacino’s birthday, after all!
Music Video of the Day: Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter by Iron Maiden (1990, directed by Steve Harris)
With songs with titles like Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter, who would have guessed parents would have gotten the wrong idea about Iron Maiden? That really is the appeal of the band, though. Underneath the occult imagery and controversial song titles, they really were just a bunch of hard-working English blokes who played well together.
This video features scenes from the horror film, Horror Hotel. This video was directed by founding member, Steve Harris.

Music Video of the Day: Sure Know Something by KISS (1979, directed by John Goodhue)
Like many music videos from the days before MTV, the emphasis here is on the band and the performance. This is a “they-sure-can-play” music video.

The Shining (1980, dir by Stanley Kubrick, DP: John Alcott)
For today’s song of the day, we have the title tune to Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. The Shining is a classic horror film and features one of Jack Nicholson’s most iconic performances.
Enjoy the greatest road trip music ever recorded.
Music Video of the Day: This Is Why We Ride by Body Count (2015, directed by Treach)
Body Count never gets the respect that it deserves. Though it may have started out as being Ice-T’s side project, it developed into an important band of its own.
This video was directed by actor and rapper Treach, who also directed three videos for his own group, Naughty by Nature.

Song of the Day: Maria, performed by the UNT One O’Clock Lab Band
Texas Flag, by Erin Nicole
Since today is San Jacinto Day, it seems appropriate that today’s song of the day should come from Texas!
Here is the University of North Texas’s One O’Clock Lab band performing Maria at the Addison Jazz Festival.
Music Video of the Day: I’m Broken by Pantera (1994, directed by Wayne Isham)
I’m Broken is one of the best songs ever inspired by back pain. In this case, the pain belonged to Phil Anselmo.
This video was directed by Wayne Isham, who was one of those music video directors who every successful group worked with at least once.
Enjoy!
