On this episode of Sound Up!, Mark Goodman is back on land after spending a week at sea hosting the 80's Cruise. Mark and Alan are joined by another 80's Cruise co-host, former Volume host Lori Majewski to discuss the event and why the 80s still rule! Mark and Alan also have a big review and commentary on the 94th Annual Academy Awards, including the big win by Billie Eillish and Finneas and the surprisingly amazing performance by Ryan Gosling with special guests Wolfgang Van Halen and Slash on "I'm Just Ken." In music news we discuss the current issues with the Billy Preston documentary, Liam Gallagher and John Squire dominate the UK Charts, the recently announced Jimmy Buffett tribute, Irving Azoff purchasing 50 percent of Bryan Ferry's music catalogue, and our new music picks including new tracks from St. Vincent, Kings of Leon, Iron and Wine, Marcus King and More.
