#5. Honeymoon Suite – New Girl  Now                                                                                                                          Requested Through – Facebook Request Line – Scotty B wdha                                                                                 Requested By –  The Long Island Gunner Al H in Long Island , NY                                                                      5

The Long Island Gunner Al H drops in at #5 with his Miami Vice themed request. “Miami Vice” was and still is my favorite 80’s tv cop show. The show was famous for its stylish visuals, including the iconic pastel suits worn by the main characters, as well as its groundbreaking use of music, which featured an array of popular songs from the era. “Miami Vice” was a cultural phenomenon that helped define the pop culture of the 1980s and remains a beloved classic of television history. Al did not make my decision easy on what to play, so by a coin flip I chose “New Girl Now” by Honeymoon Suite. It was released in 1984 from the bands self titled  debut album . “New Girl Now ” was used in the Miami Vice Episode  “One Eyed Jack”. it’s  romping hard rock vibe  and catchy  chorus made it a perfect fit for the upbeat and glamorous vibe of Miami. Great job Gunner! Salute!

#4 Tool – Aenema                                                                                                                                                               Requested Through – Facebook Request Line – Scotty B wdha                                                                                Requested by – Commander Betsy B in Rockaway , NJ                                                                                              4

Commander Betsy B slides into #4 with her request for” Aenema” by Tool. “Aenema” by Tool is a song that has captivated audiences since its release in 1996. The song is a fusion of progressive metal, alternative rock, and psychedelic music, and is known for its intricate instrumental arrangements, thought-provoking lyrics, and intense vocal delivery. I Love TOOL!!!! Great Job Betsy! Salute!

#3. Peter Frampton – Show Me The Way (Live)                                                                                                           Requested Through – Facebook Request Line – Scotty B wdha                                                                                Requested by – The El – Capptytan of the Rockturnal Brigade Bobby Bonzo  Rockturnaling and Working in Hasbrouck Heights, NJ                                                                                                                                                3                                                                                                                   The Cap  backs into #3 with his live themed request that he will be doing this week with “Show Me the Way” by the legendary Peter Frampton. Peter Frampton’s “Show Me the Way” is one of the most iconic songs in rock history. It was originally released in 1976 on his landmark album, “Frampton Comes Alive!”, and quickly became a massive hit. However, it was the live version of the song that truly cemented its place in music history. Recorded during Frampton’s 1976 tour, the live version of “Show Me the Way” is a masterclass in rock performance. The song’s instantly recognizable guitar riff is played with a raw, frenzied energy that captures the excitement of a live concert. Great job Bonzo! Salute!

#2. Rush – New World Man                                                                                                                                              Requested Through – Email Request Line – [email protected]                                                                        Requested by – 1st LT. Nina M in Randolph , NJ                                                                                                        2

Nina M is back on the list at the two spot with her request for “New World Man ” by Rush. “New World Man” was released in 1982 on their album “Signals”. Musically, “New World Man” is a showcase of Rush’s unique sound. “New World Man” manages to pack a lot of musical and lyrical complexity into its three-and-a-half-minute runtime. The song’s bridge section features a series of intricate guitar and bass solos, showcasing the amaizing skill of the members of Rush. Great Job on making the list two nights in a row Nina! Salute!
