Xanadu Soundtrack!!

my siblings and I used to take our record player down to our unfinished basement and setup our own roller skating rink, complete with cheapo strobe lights we had bought at Spencers. Xanadu was the album of choice (along with the Muppet Movie soundtrack). Then my parents had the basement redone as a family room, and the fun times were gone.

Every time I open this record it cracks me up that they included a photo of the writer of "Magic."

TEH SEX indeed. I'm gonna regret this, but yeah, that's me:

The guitar sound on 'Magic' makes me feel crazy.

a while back, I got very very hung up on the title track: Jeff Lynne = Benny & Bjorn; 'Liv = Agnetha and Frida.

So I went in search of the best performance of the tune I could find. The below is my choice: I wept with joy when I found it.

i don't know shit about the tubes but this clip makes me pine for some day where a band could have 35 guitarists pulling the same moves. not listening to but maybe doing it – seems like a pretty good living if you don't mind doing some drugs past bedtime
