Been listening to this podcast about the films of John Hughes and the music that soundtracks them. Like many peeps, I grew up with John Hughes movies so these podcasts are super interesting.

I'm through the first three, really cool stuff. Also, a box set, Life Moves...

I was digging around my Spotify playlists and found some old ones I actually like. I guess I did a "possible soundtrack" series, because there are four of these. Gonna post them separately, maybe someone will like them?
