We Are Family by Sister Sledge
A classic in every sense. Sister Sledge is one of those rare household staples, whether everyone realizes their name or not. Their sound defines the ’70s for me, and that’s saying a lot when you consider that a majority of my wax collection was originally printed in that fortuitous decade.

What I could—and will—say about the new record, Ants From Up There, by Black Country, New Road is the exact same as what I said after viewing the “Concorde” video for the first time: not at ALL what I expected, but not mad about it.
