Back at it for day six of my June Music Challenge. Today it's about the music from the year you graduated.

I was really getting into music big-time when I graduated from high school. Gun's N' Roses released an album that would go on to be a monster! 

Aerosmith put out the first piece of their massive comeback. The next album Pump would push them back to the top. 

I love these last two records. The Cult is so underrated, and Midnight Oil (whatever happened top those guys?) had a few hits on the radio. Those guys stopped in my town and had lunch once. Big news for a small town. LOL

What about you? What are some of your faves from your graduation year? Feel free to post on your socials with the hashtag #MeltdownsJMC
