I Can’t Believe It’s Not On Spotify! #1: Calloway, “I Wanna Be Rich”
As I’ve spent serious time of late crafting Spotify playlists based off Top 40 hits from the ’50s through the ’90s, I’ve grown a strong sense of what is and isn’t available, at least as far as pop is concerned. And as I post inaccessible one-hit wonders and notable obscurities here, you can expect to see quite a few from Solar and Casablanca Records.
I can believe it’s not on Spotify. (And I bet Anthony can too…but that doesn’t make for a very good series name.) Anyway this is exactly what my mess of a Pop Conference presentation was trying to say (and don’t get me wrong, the blame for its failure to convey that is entirely at my feet). The key word above is “inaccessible.”
