#EliteMusic A song I’d never skip: ‘1976’ - RJD2 (2004) Like coming out of a disco dream in an ABC Sunday Night Movie. The “gotcha!” at 1:28 always makes me smile - and I love that you just can’t quite catch those lyrics. open.spotify.com/track/09aNhX...

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 31: A favorite album: The Cardigans - ‘Life’ (1995) It’s like the sweetest confection, I love them and saw them at a tiny club in Phoenix about three weeks before “Lovefool” blew up. “Carnival” is my favorite of their songs, so much fun!

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 27: Album I wish I had a physical copy of: John Williams - ‘The Poseidon Adventure’ (1972) Unreleased when the movie came out, then finally released in the 90s…but only on CD. I long for a vinyl release of this epic soundtrack.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 25: Album of historical significance Gloria Gaynor - Never Can Say Goodbye (1975) The title track would be the very first song to top the Billboard Dance Chart in October, 1974. This chart was called Billboard Disco Action at the time.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge 23. Album I listen to most: OMD - “Organisation” 1980 It’s likely in a three way tie with Depeche Mode’s “Some Great Reward” and James Brown’s soundtrack to “Black Caesar”.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 19 - Guilty pleasure: Jerry Goldsmith - “The Swarm” (1978) I’m not guilty but it’s definitely a pleasure - it’s way better than the movie that killed off the fun disaster films that were in style. “The Bees Arrive” is an incredible piece! youtu.be/QubjPQEoFTo?...

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 18 - An album that reminds me of home: Bob Seger & TSBB- “Stranger In Town” (1978) Almost anything from the mid Bob Seger years was on constant rotation - both of my parents were huge fans. I got to see him on the “Against the Wind” tour before I was a teenager.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 16 - The newest album I own: Depeche Mode - “Memento Mori” (2023) An emotional album. The first ‘new release’ I bought by Depeche Mode was ‘Some Great Reward’ which remains my all time favorite. This is their finest album of the 2000s, for me.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 15 - The oldest album I own: Johnny Mathis - “Merry Christmas” (1958) An ex roommate left us his album stash and this one made it to the collection. I marvel how clean and clear it sounds for being almost 70 years old.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 14 - An album that changed the way I feel about life: Frankie Goes to Hollywood - “Welcome to the Pleasuredome” (1984) The first band that made me feel lucky to have been born gay. Bronski Beat and The Smiths made me feel less alone, FGTH made me feel fabulous.

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 12 - A particularly meaningful album: New Order - “Technique” (1989) I got to interview them while they toured for this album. They kept me 90 minutes longer than scheduled because I was gushing about how great Technique was. Incredible experience!

#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 11 - A break up album: Anita Bryant - Entire Catalog I don’t have a soundtrack to any past break up. But I know I’d break up with anyone that listened to this foul soul.
