This week we turn our musical chronometer back 40 years to talk about the albums that were released in 1985!

We share funny stories and fond memories relating to albums by Talking Heads, Dire Straits, Tears for Fears, Heart, the Hooters, Run-D.M.C., Megadeth, Marillion, the Smiths, and even Hoodoo Guru and Pseudo Echo (remember them??), plus many others.  As always, we have a Spotify playlist to accompany this episode that you can access HERE.  What's your favorite album released in the first half of 1985? Drop us a line at modernmusicology1@gmail.com or just leave a comment on our socials or whatever podcast platform you're listening to us.  Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ModernMusicology  Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/modernmusicologypodcast/  Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ModrnMusicology  Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCk-MlcGy5u3fK1j4bVty1Kw  Modern Musicology is part of the ESO Podcast Network. https://esonetwork.com/  Find more about us: Rob Levy: https://kdhx.org/shows/show/juxtaposition  Stephanie Seymour: www.therearebirds.com   R.

"Rock and Roll really came into its own in the 1950s and once it did someone was always proclaiming it bad for the youth in one way or another. These were generally called Moral Panics. Here is the history and some examples of a few of the most popular Moral Panics."

When we go through difficulties and don't know what to do, what happens to our faith?  On today's podcast, we give an insight into how to navigate through the dire straits of life and come out victorious.  Listen in and receive.  

The robots have arrived, and they're making protest songs about boots on the ground. When an AI band called The Velvet Sundown fooled over a million Spotify listeners with their psychedelic folk anthems, it raised an unsettling question: have the machines gotten so good we can no longer hear the difference? Charlie puts Nate to the test with a game of "AI or Human?" featuring Wu-Tang deepfakes, phantom instruments, and songs that sound like Dire Straits and Tom Petty had a baby. Along the way, they uncover the five telltale signs that expose artificial music, from juvenile rhyming patterns to voices that shapeshift between tracks. But here's the terrifying part: just six months ago, AI music was unlistenable chaos. Now it's disturbingly competent. And it's only getting better.

As we navigate through the narrow straits this year, the Lord has new levels of the prophetic to lead us to safety.  Listen in for this revelation and impartation for protection. 

One very prominent American economist is NOT very bullish on housing right now. In fact, he says the market for homes is in such dire straits, he's offering a "red flare" warning that it could soon impact the rest of the American economy, and not in a good way. Coming up on the Jon Sanchez Show at 3pm today, we'll ask the experts, Cory and Dwight, if they agree?

The 17th of Tammuz through the 9th of Av is a very historical time called the "dire straits," as historically it has been a time of great calamity and joy.  Today, we lay a foundation and a warning of how to press in and experience the joy rather than the calamity.  

One More Saturday Night/ Fire Opener, That's a show! The genius of Garcia, three well-crafted peaks in one instrumental....Desirable selections all night...Comes a Time stops time in its tracks...This was also the 40th anniversary of Live Aid...Thoughts on performances by Dire Straits, Clapton, and Dylan.

It was my honor recently to speak with music writer Andrew Wild, who has written books about the likes of Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Dire Straits, and Pink Floyd, as well as about the iconic Live Aid concert festival. Andrew just released his second book about the 1980s "neoprog" era in England, chronicling six British bands that kept the progressive rock torch alive when the 1970s bands were either fading out or pivoting to more pop-oriented sounds. Those bands are: Marillion, IQ, Pallas, Pendragon, Twelfth Night, and Solstice. The book, A Playground of Broken Hearts: the Progressive Rock Revival 1984 to 1989, is a sequel to his A Mirror of Dreams: the Progressive Rock Revival 1981 to 1983. Andrew spoke to me about his music history, how he came to write about these six bands, how those groups kept the prog scene alive, and much more (including his upcoming book about Big Big Train!).

"Here is the second show where we play songs you might not know were covers. Often the cover version of a song becomes a bigger hit. And even if you did know the hit was a cover you may not know the original. We will play you a few."

Are you held captive by a familiar spirit?In this episode of the Curt Landry Podcast, Rabbi Curt and Darrell Puckett talk about spiritual warfare during the Dire Straits, a somber period of historical significance between the 17th of Tammuz and the 9th of Av (July 13th - August 3rd, 2025). The enemy will overplay his hand during this time, often exposing his deep-rooted tactics. Don't let people, places, or circumstances distract you or cause you to self-sabotage your assignment. As familiar spirits and generational patterns are stirred up and rise to the surface, they can be exposed, identified, and cast out. During the dire straits…Write down a goal God has given youIdentify how the enemy has historically tried to stop you (Finance, health, depression, anxiety, etc.)Break agreement with the enemy and declare God's deliverance in this area of your lifeJoin Rabbi and Darrell as they share the wisdom of awareness and preparation, decreeing and declaring deliverance and victory, and how this period can posture you for spiritual breakthrough.

"This is the first of a two show set. Often people are shocked to hear that a hit song is a cover. We have put together a long list of hit songs that are covers and we will play the original to you can hear where the hit you know came from."

“I'm a deep cuts person — the hits get you there, but the album cuts keep you.”Perfectly timed for Canada Day, this episode wraps up Sara J and Darrin's epic two-part conversation with a deep dive into their shared love for The Tragically Hip. Sara shares the recent rediscovery of a 2003 Gord Downie solo show in Buffalo, while Darrin traces how learning to code sparked his journey into archiving live music—starting with Boston indie band Wheat, and later expanding to The Spoons, Rheostatics, Bourbon Tabernacle Choir and of course, The Tragically Hip.The two explore how last fall's Hip docuseries inspired the now-thriving Hip archive (which—hard to believe—isn't even a year old). Sara gushes about how she's used the archive for numerous creative projects, and Darrin reflects on the generosity of tapers and the band's openness to live recording over the years.They lovingly nerd out over stats and setlists—Darrin's seen 129 of the ~180 Hip songs live across 34 shows—and talk about the live albums that shaped his listening, from Peter Gabriel's Plays Live to Dire Straits' Alchemy and Genesis's Three Sides Live. And yes, they reveal their favorite Hip records—Sara's pick? In Violet Light (of course).From there, the conversation winds through Darrin's time playing in his own band, Tempus Fugit, and how recording albums like Shallow Water Blackout reshaped the way he listens to music. (Highly recommended listening, by the way.)To close, things turn tender and deeply personal. Darrin shares the one show he regrets missing, flipping the question to Sara J—who opens up about the loss of her father, how it distanced her from music and The Hip for years, and the unexpected ways that reconnecting through the docuseries, working with jD from TTH Top Forty Countdown, and a whole lot of healing brought her full circle.Where you can find this week's guest:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/darrincappe/The Hip Archive: https://www.thehiparchive.com/index2.shtmlHave a show to contribute?

In this week's Bitesize episode, Andrew starts by talking about forward selling.Andrew talks about the immediate issue of harvest. There is a large carryover stock, harvest is early and there is a potential for the quality to be wrong.Andrew explains the benefits of farmers having their own storage or owning space in central storage.Andrew keeps the podcast fairly short as there is “nothing cheerful to say”.

June 2025 In May 1945 the Royal Navy fought its last surface action against the Japanese fleet, sinking the cruiser Haguro in the Mallaca Strait, off the coast of Malaya. The successful location of the enemy ship was the result of signals intelligence. It was also a product of the sophisticated network built up by Britain, the USA and Australia after 1943 to intercept, decipher and distribute intelligence around the Pacific and Indian Oceans. In this ‘It Happened Here' episode, we are joined by Bletchley Park's Research Historian Dr David Kenyon to discuss the role of the Codebreakers in this milestone on the road to ultimate victory over Japan in 1945. This episode features Veteran Edward Simpson from our Oral History archive. Our thanks go to Dr Ben Thompson and Owen Moogan for voicing our historical documents.

What happens when lifelong fandom meets musical opportunity? Matt Hughes knows firsthand. Having grown up purchasing Black Sabbath albums, Matt eventually found himself trading guitar solos with Tony Iommi and jamming alongside Bill Ward through Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp experiences that transformed his relationship with music.The most remarkable chapters of Matt's story revolve around Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp, which he describes as "life-changing." Through this innovative program, musicians of all skill levels get to perform with rock legends. For Matt, this meant playing Hendrix's "Hey Joe" with Bill Ward and Lita Ford, and later receiving "the nod" from Tony Iommi to take a guitar solo during Black Sabbath's "Into the Void." These surreal moments—capped by Iommi gifting him a guitar pick—illustrate how the boundaries between fan and musician can beautifully blur.As we anticipate Black Sabbath and Ozzy's final performance together in Birmingham on July 5, 2025, Matt's experiences offer a unique perspective on music's power to create meaningful connections across decades. His story reminds us that passion, persistence, and a willingness to participate can transform our relationship with the music and artists we love.We also look back at the Billboard Hot 100 Chart from July 13, 1985. Songs included are Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" and Dead or Alive "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)." What made #1?

This week on TIme Signatures with Jim Ervin, Erv welcomes Manx Blues guitarist, straight from the Isle of Man, Davy Knowles. Davy dropped by to talk about his early years in music, largely influenced by the likes of Rory Gallagher, Eric Clapton, and Robert Johnson. It was the Dire Straits' Sultans of Swing that first bit Davy, and after a few guitar lessons, he chose to take the self-taught route….and the rest is history. The ensuing trail took him from John Mayall and Eric Clapton's ‘Beano Album', to Peter Green's era with Fleetwood Mac, and ultimately landing on Rory-and he was off to the races. It was a fun chat, covering some of his early work with his band, ‘Back Door Slam', and ending on his newest recorded work, ‘The Invisible Man'. We have just one episode left in Season Four….any ideas who it might be?

Episode 78: Omar Hakim. Today on the pod we've got one of the most recorded drummers of all time. The legendary Omar Hakim! We went deep for over 2 hours, and unlocked SO MUCH GOLD, so we're releasing this conversation in two parts. In Part 1, Omar shares the stories behind some of his most iconic recordings, including his legendary session with David Bowie on Let's Dance, his deep musical relationship with Nile Rodgers, and his time in Weather Report. We also get into the wild story of how he tracked the entire Dire Straits album "Brothers in Arms" (including the questions I've always had about Money for Nothing). With this interview, I hope you'll now understand how Omar became the legend he is today.

"Back in 1973 Muhammad Ali knocks out George Foreman in what was called The Rumble in the Jungle. This victory inspires Johnny Wakelin to write the song Black Superman. He gets a hit with it. So what other songs are written for or about athletes. We have a list."

Escuchamos las canciones que acompañan el día a día del catedrático emérito de Química Inorgánica de la Universidad de Zaragoza, que acaba de recibir la medalla Echegaray. Suenan Joe Cocker, Dire Straits, Leonard Cohen, los Rolling Stones o Jacques Brel.

Ce 12 juin, Marjorie Hache vous prépare une soirée Pop-Rock Station bien rythmée avec Placebo, The Stooges, Tina Turner, et Dire Straits.

L'album de la semaine reste "More" de Pulp, avec ce soir le titre "Tina", une chanson post-divorce signée Jarvis Cocker.

Sexism of the Week uncovers a not so brave new world in how young men view women, and in JOTB there's a pride of Lionesses, and some excellent cycle team names. Learn more about your ad choices.

Catching up with the backup - it's a timely episode of the Garage Hour (not to be cornfused with the usual when-we-can upload freakout).  There are still a few more further-behind  units to be kicked into production, so don't worry - you won't miss a thing. What's in this 'un?  Good electronics versus new, "dumb" appliances versus robot vacuums conspiring with the 'fridge, and the importance of having a good TV repairman up your sleeve.  There's a stint with the inevitable: electric cars and why taxpayer dough makes them soft and flabby (and inevitable losers); a possible breakthrough in small trucks (because it's simple), the spy on the counter, the spy in your solar panels, the spy in A.I., and how Carl Sagan called this 50 years ago (and Asimov did 100 years ago).  Add on a few thoughts about the freedom to roam (and boat, when you're in Florida (man)), and more from JFS3, and you've got a show. While we're at it, this episode's got a few Excellent Weirdo R.I.P.s for some high-Q fellows who left us (and it's not okay): Joe Don Baker, George Wendt and Bruce Glover.  Make it more: music from Karma to Burn, KMFDM, Deadbolt, Fatso Jetson, I Mother Earth, Dire Straits, Rev. Heat, Clutch, the Allmans and Fun Lovin' Criminals.
