Billboard Déjà Vu

Soundcheck | Apr 6, 2012

Madonna and Lionel Richie are back at the top of the charts this week with brand new albums, giving us a case of Billboard déjà vu. Today: a sonic trip back to 1986, when the two stars last mingled in the Billboard Top 5. Plus: a visit from seminal '80s songwriters Suzanne Vega and Duncan Sheik, who will be performing together on tour - and live in our studio.
