50946	If There Was a Retro Hall of Fame...	<p>They've sold out concerts since like, the 70s. They've sold 100 million albums. They're one of the biggest names in music and pop culture. Did I mention they have an arena football team named after them? They are KISS!!!!!!!!!</p> <p><img alt="" height="480" src="http://retro-daze.org/upload/image-20250401123654-1.jpeg" width="640" /></p> <p>Ever heard the Destroyer album?

50943	If There Was a Retro Hall of Fame...	<p> </p> <p>ICEE</p> <p>Let's hear it for the ICEE bear! Whether you're at the mall, movie theater or the convenience store, you can always find that familiar blue and red ICEE logo and bear. For many, many years, this has been a favorite among frozen treat lovers. It always came in fun, delicious flavors like cherry, blueberry and Coca Cola. And it still remains the number one slushee brand. More than worthy of being in The Retro Hall of Fame.</p> <p>Isn't ICEE cool? <img alt="" height="20" src="http://www.retro-daze.org/upload/image-20250329125237-1.png" width="20" /></p> <p><img alt="" height="640" src="http://www.retro-daze.org/upload/image-20250329125103-1.png" width="272" /></p>	Mr Magic	Mar 29, 2025

50940	If There Was a Retro Hall of Fame...	<p>When this song was first released as a single in 1967, "Nights in White Satin", didn't make much of an impression. By 1968 television music shows from Europe were securing a regular schedule slot on U.S. televisions stations and the recorded-live performance of Justin Hayward and <strong>The Moody Blues</strong> on "<span style="font-size:16px">Beat-Club</span>" became <em>The-Talk-Of-The-Town!</em></p> <p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/p6xMOTjLIaY?si=45__aCBHj0c-tdQm" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p>	eddstarr	Mar 29, 2025

The weakest track would probably be Trapped Under Ice...but you can't really go wrong with any of the tracks off of RTL.</p> <p>That's very cool of you to buy the vinyl for this album for your brother.</p> <p>I'd also nominate Mike Judge's King Of The Hill. I’ve always felt KOTH was the only real spiritual successor to The Simpsons and while I'm a huge fan of Mike Judge's work (Beavis & Butt-Head, Office Space, Idiocracy), KOTH has always been his best work to me and was an incredibly wholesome show. <strong>Here is the theme song:</strong></p> <div data-oembed-url="https://youtu.be/Cr0bHuLO4FU?si=xDRipIPEFo_MBN8q"> <div> <div style="height:0; left:0; padding-bottom:56.25%; position:relative; width:100%"><iframe allow="accelerometer ; clipboard-write ; encrypted-media ; gyroscope ; picture-in-picture ; web-share ;" allowfullscreen="" scrolling="no" src="//if-cdn.com/qrzqvVh" style="top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;" tabindex="-1"></iframe></div> </div> </div> <p> </p>	BionicleFan1994	Mar 29, 2025
