DJ Polished Solid is back with another great mix of a certified GFM Fave Van Hunt. For those who know Van’s body of work or have ever seen him perform live know firsthand the caliber of artist that he is… it’s great to see someone like DJ Polished Solid producing such a fitting tribute to a true writer of music. GFM had the privilege to interview Van last August, if you haven’t had a chance to check out that interview you can find it here. Make sure to checkout DJ Polished each and every Sunday from 4pm to 6pm on her show No Turn Unstoned right here.

Much is said about the onesies and skimpy costumes that these pop divas wear today and their overt sexuality, but remember Vanity 6? Thirty years ago this group knocked our collective socks off with lingerie as outfits and explicit records that included moaning and groaning. I still can’t believe my mom allowed me to have this album, but I’m glad she did. It was great music–courtesy of Prince and The Time (Also known as The Original 7ven). Written and composed by Prince with backing music by The Time, “Nasty Girl” went to #1 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 and Hot Dance Club Play charts. Vanity is now a Christian minister and denounces the song.
Don’t date yourself, but it’s likely this was the soundtrack for your high school, middle school or even college years. Either way, the 80′s were a fun loving, horrible fashion, good time having era. If you enjoyed his 80′s MTV flashback mix, add this to your collection for a dash of 80′s soul. Big ups to DJ Phaze for blessing us with another great mix. Hit the break for the playlist and enjoy!
