The Year Was 1995–On the big screen, moviegoers enjoyed “The Bridges of Madison County” (filmed in Iowa), “Toy Story” and “Braveheart”…in the news, O.J. Simpson was found not guilty of murder, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated, and Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead died…the television program “Svengoolie” premiered nationally…and on the music charts, Sheryl Crow debuted with “All I Want To Do Is Have Some Fun,” Tim McGraw scored with “I Like It, I Love It,” Hootie and the Blowfish did “I Only Want To Be With You,” and Blues Traveler released “Runaround”.
