  1. "Dress You Up" is a song by American singer #Madonna from her second studio album, #LikeAVirgin (1984). It was released as the album's final #single on July 31, 1985, by #SireRecords. Composed by Andrea LaRusso with lyrics by Peggy Stanziale, and produced by #NileRodgers, who also played guitar on the track, it was the final song to be added to the album. Rodgers had asked the writers to compose something similar to the work of his band #Chic but, due to LaRusso.

  2. Music Day 5: Over the years, though mostly a lover of rock, I have always loved a wide variety of genres...from funk, prog, fusion, electronic, dance, etc. Never limiting myself to a specific type, it just needs to sound good to my ears and in my bones:) Guitarist Nile Rodgers was especially a favorite, his percussive use of tiny chords (I believe Mark Lettieri coined that!) and syncopated rhythm playing has always blown me away. I was going for somewhat of an homage to his style, but obviously next to impossible to replicate, I call it "DiscoSphere".

    Many thanks to the awesome Flash Mob dancers around the world on YouTube, they provided a nice back drop to this!

    Springtime is nearly here, time to move and get up and dance! Cheers!
