Happy 70th birthday to the one and only Joe Jackson. You may know him as the man who gave you the Hula Hoop. Or the man who gave you the Yo-yo. Or perhaps the man who gave you I’m The Man, Is She Really Going Out With Him?, Sunday Papers, One More Time, Fools In Love, It’s Different For Girls, Steppin’ Out, Breaking Us In Two and plenty more classics. If you want some new music to go with those old hits, look at the 300-plus new albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, vinyl reissues and cassettes arriving next week. But as Joe would advise, look sharp:
