Song of the Day: Baby
Be Mine, words and music by Rod
Temperton, is Track #2 on the stupendous Michael
Jackson album, "Thriller,"
which was released on this date, 30 years ago. This recording predates "Spice
of Life" but both songs have that same sweet
Temperton groove. Listen to the track on YouTube.
Song of the Day: Spice
of Life features the words and music of Derek
Bremble and Rod
Temperton, who has had many hits with Michael
Jackson. Recorded by The
Manhattan Transfer, this song was a Top 40 hit on both the pop and
R&B charts, from the group's 1983 album "Bodies
and Souls." It features a sweet harmonica solo by Stevie
Wonder. Check out the track on YouTube.
Today is a day of many spices giving life to so many wonderful foods on the
plates of so many family members and friends who survived Hurricane
Sandy in the tri-state area. We embrace our countless blessings on
this robust Thanksgiving especially,
a celebration of the spice of life.
