As Thanksgiving approaches...the folks here at Triple M are wondering what albums you're thankful for...so I thought I'd check in with a list of some albums that have really meant a lot to me.
5 Random Albums That I'm Thankful ForBeatles "Rock and Roll Music": This is the first Beatles album I owned. It was a compilation album that came out in the late 1970's, and radio stations were playing "Got to Get You Into My Life." I asked for that for Christmas, and my older brother Tim bought it for me, along with "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," saying that I should be listening to the Beatles as they intended it. I've been a Beatle fan ever since..and probably would have never hooked up with my boyfriend Mike if we didn't have that in common.
"Oliver! The Movie Soundtrack": It was the 3rd movie I ever went to go see in the theatre. We got the soundtrack album and my mom and I listened to it over and over. Just a sweet childhood memory. "Got to pick a pocket or two....boys...got to pick a pocket or two."
Suzanne Vega "Solitude Standing": it was the mid-eighties before I ever bought an album by a female singer...this was the first. Love her voice and her songwriting.
R.E.M. "Life's Rich Pageant." My younger brother John bought this for me when I requested Robert Palmer's "Riptide" for Christmas. Much better choice. And R.E.M. became one of my favorite bands.
Kasey Chambers "The Captain." An Australian singing country music? You bet. I love this album.

I'm not sure why Pete Yorn decided to name his new music project after a European cave dwelling aquatic salamander, but if he stops by to play us some songs in Studio M, we'll have to ask him.
The Olms is a collaboration between Pete Yorn and...
Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture.
I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons.
1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels.
2) I used to...
Hello to all from Nfusion. Another round of challenges has moved beyond us all. Congrats to those of us lucky enough to have survived to this point. Sad to see the others eliminated as they were all very creative and talented. Good Bye to our new friends...
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...
Madison's summer music festival season kicks off this weekend with Brat Fest at Willow Island, where there are more bands than you can shake a bratwurst at! Check out the Brat Fest website to plan your itinerary.
Next up is the Marquette...
John Fogerty is making the talk show rounds this week, stopping in to see David Letterman Tuesday and Wednesday, and the ladies of "The View" on Thursday.
He's promoting his new album, "Wrote a Song For Everyone" which comes out next Tuesday...
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
