My Musical Evolution – Part 165 College Intermission Cruising & Arcades

When I play back these MTV/Radio hits of the College Intermission, I keep getting flashes of cruising around in mom’s Granada. Perhaps that says more than I first realized. Mom’s car had AM/FM but no cassette option. That would mean that riding around in mom’s car was a radio only affair. Makes sense. i can’t imagine going anywhere without the radio on.

Back then, the mall had a skaiting rink and at least to video game arcades.  I seem to recall feeiling kind of lost in the city. Playing my old video game favorites was a good diversion.  Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to walk into an retro-arcade that is stocked with all my old favorites. I’m not talking about those emulators but the actual units that I played back then.
