Madonna's Confessions On A Dance Floor

I remember Madonna from my WEA days. Back in the eighties, WEA was the distributor for Warner, Elektra, and Atlantic records and all their "sub-labels." Today they're the warner music group. Madonna appeared on Sire records first, then the Maverick label was born later on, from Warner Brothers.

We started at WEA the same year, 1983. That's when the Madonna self-titled debut album came out. Then CD's first appeared. And I remember getting a white vinyl LP of "Like A Virgin" a year after, because the record labels still did cool stuff like that back then. When's the last time you saw a colored vinyl LP?

Now Rolling Stone magazine says Madonna's "got her groove back!"

Madonna's new album Confessions On A Dance Floor, debuted at number one in 25 countries, including the US, UK, and Japan. Billboard magazine debuted it at number one on their Top Pop Albums. It's been called a 12-track introduction to "the art of getting down."

Her fist single "Hung Up" is number three on the iTunes website. Fans have posted rave reviews and critics have panned it. There seems to be no middle ground with "the material girl." Fans either love her or they hate her. I don't have dance fever, so I'll pass on this one.

There's a deluxe version of the album which includes a video and digital booklet of Confessions On A Dance Floor. On Warner Brothers.
