BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1981
Side One Label
I had originally posted this 12″ on the old Blogger site but in celebration of the 30th birthday of the classic 80′s video game I decided to re-rip this 12″ with newer equipment and post it again. Enjoy!
Pac-Man Fever is a song by Buckner & Garcia. This is their only hit, and it was ranked #98 on VH1′s 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80s. In March 1982, the song became a top-ten hit, peaking at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100, and earning a gold record. The song is about the classic Video-Game Pac-Man.
