My guiltiest of ‘Guilty Pleasures’ is to get my 40-something friends to listen to what (me and) my 20-something friends are listening to. The most successful way I have found to do this is to mix my 40+ friends favs with my 20+ friends faves (all of which are my personal faves) and build a little Golden Gate-like suspension bridge to one another’s music and musicality. After all, I like and believe in musical inclusion, not exclusion. And it’s amazing how often my little guilty pleasure works, tricky me I guess! So here’s my latest and best example… That’s my story and I’m sticking to it; See you Sunday!
