YES, AGAIN...



I've been keeping this blog for quite a while now. I write it for myself -- it is the closest I can get to creative expression. I don't think I've ever had that many readers. I read the blogs that are linked on my page and some of them read mine. I do get emails from time to time from people who do not have a blogger account and who have something to say or ask me. I guess it is normal that some posts would get more comments than usual, but the post I made in which I joked about the death of disco being blamed on the film, XANADU, got more emails than any post I've done! So many in fact, that I have given up getting thru all of them. I think I got 50 emails regarding the post yesterday.

People love XANADU --- and so do I!

Anway, more than a few people have noted that I failed to mention something very important attrocity committed by MCA/Universal when the soundtrack LP was released. Yes, they opted to not include the wonderous medly/finale --- which was introduced as Gene Kelly and all those rollerboogie skaters chanting "Ho! Ho! Ho!" --- and a marvelous showcase for a number of costume and wig changes for Olivia Newton-John --- and lots of songs including a fun C&W disco dittty! But, it was never captured on the LP. And, this friends, is a tragedy. So, I just wanted to acknowledge this for those of you who were upset that I failed to include this audio tragedy.

Now, I hope some of you will go ahead and create a blogger account and word verification is not that big a deal. For now, it is beating all those obnoxious spam bloggers. Then you can comment away!
