Like a Surgeon: A Surgeon's Guide to the Top 1000 Songs of the 1980's (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781667855295)

Dr. Tabariai is an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon who will help navigate you through his top 1000 (yes one-thousand) songs of the decade of the 1980's in order. In addition, there are another 100 songs that just missed the list. Working for over 30 years on this matter, the good doctor has spent countless of hours to become an expertise in this genre. It has both inspired and disciplined him to become who he is as a husband and father and what he does for his career. His career has involved both a duality of science and art. He graduated from University of California, Los Angeles as an undergraduate. He then attended The University of Pennsylvania, School of Dental Medicine and received his dental degree. After a six year hospital residency in Fresno, CA, he achieved his specialty in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. After starting his practice in Los Angeles, California, Dr. Tabariai wanted to explore his artistic abilities. He initially ventured in movie making and has written and produced a feature film, "Back In The No", and two short movies, "Dinner With A Stranger" and "Blood Bank 2021". But Dr. Tabariai had to further explore his lifelong passion in the music of the 1980's. What has come out of this passion is this book. This culminated in another two years of further commitment and research into the music of that decade which started as an initial idea of trying to list his favorite songs from that time. Despite continuing with his practice in oral surgery, he found the time to navigate the top and also the not so popular songs of each year of the 1980's. Most of these songs have been carved into the pleasure centers of his memory from the past. However, and to his surprise, he found some rare gems that created new joy for him in his search.
