A meaty slice of birthday Loaf
I see Meat Loaf is 57 today. I presume that's Heinz 57.
Kidding aside, I've always enjoyed the musical stylings of Mr. Loaf. Bat Out of Hell would place somewhere in my all-time Top 20 favorite rock/pop albums. In fact, one of the songs on that album, "Heaven Can Wait," may be one of the prettiest (yes, I know I'm talking about Meat Loaf) pop ballads ever recorded. It's just the Loaf, some backup singers, and a piano, without all the usual Jim Steinman bombast (not that there's anything wrong with that).
Think maybe I'll throw Leap of Faith in the DVD player for background noise this afternoon, in honor of the Meaty One's BD.
