Album Cover of The Month



MICHAEL JACKSON: OFF THE WALL
This cover reminds me of a certain kind of innocence. At the time of this release all I knew was the songs were fun and danceable and pure pop. A pop icon about to become a legendary and then living tragedy.

I was a huge fan and my brother was even an even bigger fan. In fact i can't think of anyone who didn't like MJ. Back then, he could do no wrong. Just looking at his face is a great example of the changing times.

Afronaught



I came across this ad from a '70s Ebony Magazine, posted on another blog. It brought back alot of memories...

My dad was a barber and owned a barber shop right downtown Flint, Mi. I remember when i would go there and see people actually pick from the haircut "style guide" on the wall.

Just a few months ago i visited a friends barbershop and he had a new updated version of the afro-guide -- a young kid was picking a style from it. A style of today (lol).
