Secret Garden- Madonna
I recently featured a Terence Trent Darby track as a SOTD. It was that song and groove that reminded me of this song and groove. A bit of a change of pace for Madonna.

Nova- Paul Weller
I wasn't a fan of "A Kind Revolution" when I first heard it, but I love Weller's new one so much, I went on a binge and revisited "A Kind Revolution," which turns out to be much better than I remembered. This track is a highlight.

When I'm With You- The London Souls
The London Souls show what they do best in a little under 4 minutes. Great melodies, good harmonies, and great playing, especially when they let loose on the out.

It Comes In Waves- Mike Viola
Mike Viola has a new one due on 12/11, "Godmuffin." Get on over to www.mikeviola.com and grab your purple vinyl edition. Until then, I gave the excellent "Lurch" a spin and pulled this pop gem.

Warm Leatherette- Grace Jones
In the wake of "Trying Your Patience" #1....

Love Is Alright Tonite- Rick Springfield
Listened to Rick's "Greatest Hits" this week. Man, he had a lot of great singles. This is one of them.

Always- World Party
What's up, Karl? Where you at? The chorus is one word, six notes, but what a hook.

Very nice.

Here we have the first "rea;" snow of the season -- just the morning to sit back and dig in toi this music.

Thanks Sal.
