The movie “Footloose” was released on this date in 1984. The movie starred Kevin Bacon. The movie had mixed reviews but was a box office hit grossing over $80 million dollars worldwide.
The soundtrack no doubt helped the success of the film, as many did in the 80’s. The album featured 6 Top 40 hits including “Lets Hear It For the Boy”, “Almost Paradise”, and the title track from Kenny Loggins, who also hit the charts with today’s Forgotten 45, “I’m Free”.
