On this particular day, this is this Gen Xer’s favorite album of all time. I think it’s the first time a non Beatles LP has held that honor, but it’s honestly a flawless listen from beginning to end, passionate and punky and funny and just what I needed to hear not only in my high school dork days, but pretty much every year since. It’s that rare record that’s both of a time and timeless!

Joe Jackson's infectious upbeat spirit is pretty contagious on Look Sharp!

I keep getting ads for his newest project so I thought I’d check this out and wow this is incredible this deserves way more ratings than it currently has
