    Eliminator - ZZ Top

    Hooked up multiple times with a gal post- TDome Police concert. Have to go with that strictly on that basis.

    I was in 7th grade that year, and was so excited about the Police - Tacoma Dome concert even though I didn't get to go.

    When you consider that Michael Jackson's Thriller also came out that year and what it meant to the culture, '83 was a great year for music

    Shout at the Devil
    Rebel Yell
    Metal Health
    The Hurting

    ...were all good too.

    Somehow my fave song from the year is from someone who otherwise could miss me with his entire 80's catalog: "Well I guess that's why they call it the blues"
    Love it, and even has Stevie Wonder on the harmonica. Played at the funeral for @MrsNoWarningJustDawg as I wanted something besides the tear-jerking BS she picked out.
    ...Yeah yeah, CSB.

    Is my favorite Tears for Fears album.
