Was there anything better in the ’80s (1989, to be exact) than the sight of Alannah Myles on a porch rocking out to the smooth, silky sounds of “Black Velvet”? Hell no. And if you say differently, you deserve a kick in the teeth. Alannah Myles was a Canadian singer/songwriter (that means she actually writes her own songs, ya bums), who grew up on a ranch in Buckhorn, where she learned to appreciate horses and accounts for those pictures of Alannah Myles posing in the buff with horses. The guy loves horses, what can we say. And we loved her back in the ’80s (or 1990, if you really want to get technical about it). Let’s relive “Black Velvet” all over again, shall we?
