Retro Trivia tonight was all about Styx's Tommy Shaw since it's his birthday today.
I mentioned his biggest solo hit Girls With Guns, but it appears I'm one of only a few that actually remembers it.
Maybe my taste in retro music is too obscure and unknown - Brian Demay (Star's Program Director) is constantly telling me that. I suggested some songs today for the Retro Show and his e-mail response was the equivalent of rolling his eyes. Our taste in retro music is very different, that's for sure! :)
But Girls With Guns WAS a hit - how can you all not remember it?! It was #33 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #6 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1984. AND it was featured in an episode of Miami Vice, one of the biggest shows on-air back then.
The video for it is very cool as it's all filmed in one continuous scene. Check it out...
