The last record I bought of 2020, yesterday afternoon while running errands with the vivacious Mrs. VinylAnswer. This record probably marks the only time anyone ever bragged they were involved in the legendarily awful Star Wars Holiday Special.
However, there’s a lesson to be learned here—Jefferson Starship was a year away from making a huge comeback with “Find Your Way Back” and kept climbing until they released their own “Holiday Special,” the widely reviled “We Built This City”—which was a Number One smash, critics be damned.
So, as we leave 2020 behind us, let’s aspire to, uh, find our own way back in 2021, but maybe not build any cities. Or something like that. Happy New Year!
