This time we enter the new millennium: it's the year 2000. The year of "Kid A" from Radiohead. The Dandy Warhols released perhaps their finest album. We first learned of the White Stripes, and the band Coldplay was born.

It's 1997 this time; the Verve had their biggest hit. The music of Cuba came alive with the album and film from the Buena Vista Social Club. Bob Dylan issued "Time Out of Mind," which would earn him a Grammy for Album of the Year.

This time it's the Fat Tuesday installment; you'll hear vintage funk, soul and jazz from the '50s, '60s and '70s. Artists like Dr John, Fats Domino, Dixie Cups, and of course, Professor Longhair.

The Time Machine stops in 1964 this time. The British Invasion was well under way with bands like the Beatles, the Stones and the Kinks. It was the year of Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changin'," which was a huge inspiration on the late Sam Cooke.

This week, the Time Machine stops in 1974: Bob Dylan and The Band issued their final album together. Kraftwerk had a hit. Bob Marley took reggae to new heights. And Dolly Parton released a country classic.

This week on Time Machine, Bill DeVille whisks us back 35 years to 1984 -- a big year for The Smiths. The Pretenders got back on the chain gang, and Bruce Springsteen sang about being born in the U.S.A. Meanwhile, it was a good year locally, with huge albums from Prince and The Replacements, and one from The Suburbs that would become iconic.

It's 2004 this time; Drive-By Truckers told the story of Sam Phillips and Sun Records in song; the Black Keys released their ragged and raw blues-influenced "Rubber Factory" album; Franz Ferdinand came back from the dead; and the unlikely collaboration of Loretta Lynn and Jack White teamed up for a really great album.

This time, we go back 20 years to 1999, a year of some memorable albums from Tom Waits, who released "Mule Variations"; Oklahoma City's finest, the Flaming Lips, issued "The Soft Bulletin"; the Magnetic Fields made a masterpiece; and we can't forget Wilco's album, "Summerteeth."

This time, it's 1979; it was a great year for sophomore albums from artists like the Cars, the Police, and Prince. The Clash released their masterpiece, "London Calling"; Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers dropped their big one, "Damn the Torpedoes"; and the biggest song of the year was The Knack, "My Sharona."

This time, we turn the clock back 25 years to 1994; it was the year of Tom Petty's "Wildflowers"; it was the year Green Day became rock stars; Jeff Buckley's voice soared to great heights on his "Grace" album; and we first learned of this "loser" named Beck.
