1984

1984 was a year with no rules and no boundaries, a year of musical promiscuity, both literally and figuratively. This episode of "Behind the Music" addresses the social culture and climate of the time as well as what events domestically and abroad led to the musical Big Bang. Topics covered include: the British impact on music; the influence of women in power; the "Heartland Rockers" (Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp and Tom Petty), the marriage of music and Hollywood (MTV) and Band Aid.
