Our Weekend Artist Spotlight is on Janet Jackson! Come back MONDAY, when our '70s channels will be commercial-free.
The songs that set the backdrop for memorable events stick to the soul. This collection of channels takes one historic day and sets it to music using the Top 40 songs of that day. Our spotlight channel turns the clock back 36 years to the day the "New Coke" was born, only to be renamed "Coke II" in '92.
