In 1982, Dwight Clark launched the 49er’s football dynasty with “The Catch”. The baseball season got off to a cold start when an April 6th blizzard dumped up to 24 inches of snow on most of the Northeast, delaying Opening Day for several teams. The music scene didn’t improve much in 1982, but John Cougar had a couple of decent hits. He wisely went back to his birth name, Mellencamp. Journey released a little ditty called “Don’t Stop Believing” which is still sung at karaoke parties, weddings and bar closings across this great nation. The song only peaked at #73, as American listeners were enthralled by classic hits like Physical, Centerfold and Don’t you want me.
