The Bee Gees




Posted by Ovation TV

When it comes to the Bee Gees, I don't know anyone who didn't love them. I considered them as soul singers when I was growing up in the 70's. When I was a little girl, I use to say to my mother, "Mama, that lead singer looks like Jesus."

Run DMC and Aerosmith

In 1986, Run DMC and Aerosmith joined together to make a hip hop record. Mixing hip hop and music that is rock was something very new to me. Because of the beat, I liked the song from the very beginning. It was Aerosmith's Walk This Way along with Run DMC. I got a kick out of watching the video on MTV.  Both groups were trying to practice their music, and Run DMC kept throwing in their turn table scratch sounds as the rock group played the guitar. I thought the whole thing was awesome. It was a song put together that made both hip hop lovers and rock lovers both listen.
