1989 Pillows
Description: Jellyfish was a rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1989. The group was known for their blend of '70s classic rock and XTC-style power pop. They released two albums, Bellybutton (1990) and Spilt Milk (1993), that proved influential to many subsequent acts in a similar vein. During their five-year existence, Jellyfish attracted critical acclaim and a devoted cult following, but struggled against prevailing rock trends (hair metal and grunge), leading to them calling it quits in 1994.
Description: Guitar Shop is the sixth studio album by virtuoso guitarist Jeff Beck, released in October 1989 after a four-year break from making music. This was Beck's first album to showcase his fingerstyle play, leaving his more familiar plectrum playing style. Guitar Shop reached No. 49 on the U.S. charts and won Best Rock Instrumental Performance in 1990, this being Beck's second album to win that award. In a further move from his previous jazz fusion stylings, Beck adopts a more straightforward instrumental rock approach on this album, save for two tracks ("Guitar Shop" and "Day in the House") on which quirky spoken vocals are included.
Description: Camp Candy was a Saturday morning cartoon series starring John Candy as a camp counselor. Each episode involves John telling a story to the current campers about adventures he had with past campers. John tries to keep the kids alive and teach them a thing or two, all while the evil Rex Deforest and his crony Chester try to shut the camp down in order to sell the land to a timber company. The show ran for 39 episodes and three seasons between 1989 and 1992 and was a true bright spot in the crowded kids cartoon space of the era.
Description: Britny Fox was an American glam metal band from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area that was active from 1985 to 1992. They are best known for their music video for "Girlschool" and their minor hit "Long Way to Love" (U.S. No. 100). Named after a track of the same name on their self-titled 1988 debut album, Rock Revolution was the name of the band's 1989 tour. Despite achieving moderate popularity on the tail end of glam metal as it was fading out, Britny Fox maintained a successful following that resulted in four studio albums.
