UCR's Gary Graff and Jeff Giles are back with Matt and this time, the destination is the '80s! Gary tells us about his new book, 501 Essential Albums of the '80s: The Music Fan's Definitive Guide, which provided us with a lot to talk about and discuss. Among the topics, the rise of musically star-studded soundtracks in the decade and how that became such a thing, guilty pleasures, controversial albums and how music ultimately changed as a result of everything that was happening.
