In My Footsteps Podcast Episode 202: Back To The Future Turns 40, 1995 Year In Music Pt. 2, Symbols of the 1970s(7-2-2025)

 

Back to the Future turns 40. More of 1995, the year in music. Symbols of the 1970s.

July brings the heat and the fireworks, and so does Episode 202 of the podcast!

It begins with a look back at the king of time travel movies and one of the best movies ever, Back To The Future. 40 years ago this week, Doc and Marty began their adventures and we will look at the legacy and impact of this beloved film franchise. Tune in for the killer 8-bit version of the movie theme by Bitonal Landscape.

We return to 1995 to look at Part 2 of the year in music. This spans July through December. Legendary albums, untimely passings, and deep dives into under the radar alternative music since that was my jam in high school.

What do you think of when someone mentions the 1970s? This week's Top 5 will look at some symbols of the 70s. Fads, products, odd choices, and of course loads of disco.

There is a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around the death of iconic Doors frontman Jim Morrison.

In My Footsteps Podcast Episode 177: 1995 Year In Music Pt. 1, What Was The Noid?, 1980s FOX TV Show Fails, Debut of Apple iTunes(1-8-2025)

 

A look back at 1995 the year in music. What in the world was The Noid? Some of the early fails of the FOX television network.
Episode 177 helps light a fire of nostalgia during the dark days of winter.
The show kicks off with a killer guitar riff and thumping bass line as we look at 1995 the year in music. This is the first of two parts. It covers January - June 1995. The rest of the year will be covered in July.
The 1980s were filled with unique and sometimes downright weird product mascots. Perhaps none exemplified those descriptions like The Noid. A creation of Domino's Pizza the Noid was meant to shine a positive light on the pizza chain's quality and delivery service. Did it work? We'll do a deep dive.
Although it seems like forever the FOX television network has been around for less than four decades. Those initial years of the late 1980s were filled with growing pains. This week's Top 5 takes a look at some of the biggest show failures of the FOX network in the 1980s. Married with Children and The Simpsons are NOT on this list.
There is also a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule focused on the groundbreaking creation of Apple's iTunes.
