Legacy Recordings

Shout out to Jimmy Traina and the Sports Illustrated Extra Mustard staff for a mention of Thrillercast - The Michael Jackson Podcast in yesterday’s Hot Clicks. Whether they knew it or not, Jimmy (and his readers) also pointed out three videos deeply rooted in Legacy.

#1. Acoustic Version of Outkast’s “Hey Ya”
You know, I thought I’d seen just about every take possible on this song (the original, Charlie Brown Style, VAW-116 Hawkeye Squadron and Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra,) but this one takes it to another level. Mat Weddle of Obadiah Parker shows us how it’s done with just an acoustic guitar. RIP Polaroid

#2. Big and Rich perform AC/DC’s You Shook Me All Night Long
Everyone loves Columbia Records musicians, AC/DC, but few know that John Rich recorded a solo album between his stints as the lead singer in Lonestar and his current band, Big and Rich.

#3. Paula Abdul Dances in Toto video
Oh, Paula, you never cease to amaze us. In this classic Toto, Paula shows us how she became a highly sought-after choreographer during the height of the music video era.
