ABC

As everyone with the ability to read or hear has learned, the King of Pop has passed.

When I was little, I love love LOVED Michael Jackson. I grew up listening to old fifties, sixties and seventies doo-wop, rock, R&B and psychedelics. We broadcast WDRE in our house, the radio station out of Hartford, CT. The first song I ever requested was on my, like, fifth birthday. I called up WDRE and after not wining the Hartford Whalers tickets they always were giving away regardless of the season, I requested "ABC" by the Jackson Five.





I am not intending to write a tribute, just share a small Michael Jackson memory with y'all, because for some reason this just still all feels surreal.
