Well that’s a bold-faced lie, but when my choices are listening to the drivel playing at grocery, or a bunch of people yapping atContinue reading “Twisted Mix Tape – Forbidden Love”

Old School Disco New Year’s Eve Playlist – Boogie Fever!

  I’m the 70’s pop culture junkie and frankly, New Year’s Eve isn’t New Year’s Eve without disco. And I don’t mean some new fangled discotheque music. What the heck is a discotheque anyway? Or is it Disco Teka? Whatever it is, that’s not what I’m talking about it. What I’m talking about here isContinue reading “Old School Disco New Year’s Eve Playlist – Boogie Fever!”

I Love Chicago, I’m Old, and The Best Night of Funky R&B Ever.

Age does funny things to you. The one I think we are least likely to understand when we are young is the resistance to change. Of course I know this to be true because I am a child of sitcoms.

Here are some notables: Ministry with Everyday is Halloween – By the way, this song was ourContinue reading “A New Wave Dance Playlist”
