Marvin Hamlisch: Bond 77 (The Spy Who Loved Me Soundtrack)
love Bondathons, though I’m not that guy that will sit in front of the TV for 24 hours straight to watch eight James Bond movies in a row. No, I’m the guy that might grab a 30 minute break out of a busy day, flick through the TV listings guide and be [...]
No Doubt: Hella Good
Happy Birthday Jenny!!!
Let’s get dancing, it’s party time. “Hella Good” has a vintage feel to it, like someone just opened up a time capsule from the 1980’s. I’m getting into a groove here, the beat is totally cool – reminiscent of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” (1982) or Madonna’s aptly named “Into The Groove” [...]

Lawrence Welk Show – Mickey Mouse Mambo
I missed Mickey Mouse’s 81st birthday on Wednesday (Nov 18). Darn! But that made me remember a track I had bookmarked for one of those “what shall I post today days?” You may remember the other week I posted a dance routine performed by a pantomime-horse/court-jester dressed duo from the Lawrence Welk [...]
Lawrence Welk Show – Love will Keep us Together
Have you ever flipped through your TV channels on a Saturday evening trying to find something to watch? Or did you grow up religiously tuned into the Lawrence Welk Show – this was the pinnacle of family entertainment in the 50’s and 60’s. Seriosuly, though, what are these dancers (Bobby Burgess and Cissy [...]
