It has been more than 38 years since a little ditty called "Footloose" arrived in theaters. The year may have been 1984 but I actually remember the build up and excitement surrounding it as if it were yesterday. I was in 7th grade and my friends and I were obsessed with everything and anything connected to this important contribution to pop culture history.
I still have the soundtrack on vinyl and gave it a spin today. I think "Footloose" remains one of the best soundtracks ever because it's one of the few that you really can listen to all the way through.
