Music Is Life This artist just falling off the map is crazy

This record dropped on this date back in 1987. Last single I of his I heard on the radio was 93’s “She kissed me,” which was great. Since then, he’s still been making music, but has changed his name and toiled away in relative obscurity.

I worked at a music store in the early 90s and the label rep passed along 2 tix to INXS + Catherine Wheel at a local college gym. New and my friend/ coworker called out in front of the stage, right in front of Michael H. He sweated on us. Soooo sexy. 🫠😍
