Madonna – The Immaculate Collection
I have 3 distinct memories of this album.
1. My friend Charlene who was a singer in a pub band in my early uni days. She loved this album. She did some Madonna covers and we’d spin this in her car on drives to uni together.
2. Lucky Star at my friend Bianca’s wedding - this dropped after the bride and groom dance and the energy on the dance floor was magic. Such a good wedding playlist that one.
3. Shotz night club (the first Shotz) where the DJ would play Like a Prayer late into the evening / early morning and the floor would go off – goths, punks, indie kids all dancing.

I got quite emotional watching Madonna appear and sing Like a Prayer at Coachellea this year. What an icon!

Friday Second Coffee and Tunes - 18/04/2025

Madonna - Self Titled

I remember I had friends in early primary school who either loved Madonna or were curious cos she was "naughty". I was too busy listening to Kylie. Strangely my first Madonna cd single I bought was Rain from the erotica album. I was 8! I thought that video clip was so cool. I just rewatched it and I still agree.

I listened to lots of Madonna during early covid times and have found myself going back again recently. I bought this from Porthole Records when Rick reopened after being closed for 2 years during the early covid period. He had lots of early Madonna cheap. I ought to have bought more. This album sounds fab on my new turntable. Whilst I always think of Madonna as a singles artist this album is solid from start to finish.
