Ontopic RIP Thread

Listened to Gangsta's Paradise this morning. Brought me straight back to 8th grade.

Also hits different as an adult. The lyrics arent glorifying the life, just saying what it is, and reflecting on how being in that life only hurts the people in it.

Coolio made me discover Lakeside, because someone said "oh, the original Fantastic Voyage is so much better" and I figured I'd check it out.

Next thing I'm getting into EWF and Brothers Johnson and Zapp and Gap Band and all sorts of other good funk music.

Pulled up some Jeff Healey the other night. I miss that guy. Saw him at the old Austin music hall in ninety probably 6 or 7 or so the last time. Saw him at some smaller gig or two in Minnesota in the 80s too. World class. He only had a couple real hits, and some minor ones covering other tunes or whatever (and the appearance in the roadhouse movie) but live in person that dude was a firecracker.
