Tin Machine
May 22, 1989 was Christmas morning for fans of The Thin White Duke .. Tin Machine released their debut album. It was Bowie teamed with guitarist Reeves Gabrels and brothers Tony Sales on bass and Hunt Sales on Drums and produced some raw, aggressive rock that was a total pivot from Bowie's polished, pop-dance earlier sound of the '80's. It was an artistic reset for Bowie. #tinmachine #80srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #davidbowie
Peter Gabriel releases his 5th album on May 19, 1986. It’s considered by many his finest .. the exact moment he transformed from a cult, prog-rock icon into a bona fide global superstar — all without sacrificing a shred of his artistic soul.
And, that devastatingly beautiful duet with Kate Bush on “Don’t Give Up” … it still gives me shivers.
So … #187 on Rolling Stone’s Greatest Albums — of All Time.

May 18, 1986 ~ Concrete Blonde release their debut album ... an album that generated 3 singles: Still In Hollywood, Dancing Along The Edge and True. Fronted by Johnette Napolitano's haunting vocals, the album exploded out of the Los Angeles underground scene. #concreteblonde #80srock #rockmusic #80smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #indierock #johnettenapolitano

May 14, 1982 ~ The Clash release Combat Rock. That's Allen Ginsburg you hear doing guest vocals on Ghetto Defendant and Ellen Foley on Car Jamming. (Ellen sings opposite in Meatloaf's Paradise By The Dashboard Light though it's Carla DeVito lipsyncing in the video.) A young cow-punker by the name of Joe Ely can be heard on Should I Stay or Should I Go. #theclash #combatrock #80smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #80srock…
