Billboard Flashback: 3/11/1989
Show Notes

Episode 198: Time to flashback to March 11, 1989, with a look at the ads and articles from Billboard magazine (thank you, Monty Greenly). First up, an ad for a Boy George solo album that started out as an attempt to turn the former Culture Club frontman into a New Jack Swinger. Then, a report on the 1989 Grammy Awards -- which artists received the so-called Grammy Bump, and which new awards caused a bit of controversy? More articles and mentions included The Boys, Guadalcanal Diary, and a love song from the movie "Sing".
