Let the Late Darryl Pandy Wash Away Your Monday Ennui

Even a short glance at the music charts in the 1980s brings a realization that the decade was full of glamour and opulence and general all-around silly experimentation. Chicago DJ/producer Farley "Jackmaster" Funk had a mild hit in 1986 with "Love Can't Turn Around" and is an example of how that decade changed the us from listening to music, to seeing it. The video clip has the recruited vocalist Darryl Pandy Cheshire Cat grinning around a city backdrop, while showcasing his shoulder shaking abilities that would make even Pat Benatar envious. If you find yourself dragging yourself around the office today, let this be your alarm to wake up and find joy in the performances of yesteryear.

Of course, if you are one of our American readers, make sure this song and video is the tentpole holding up your Memorial Day BBQ.
