This is a great album by one of music’s most consequential artists. With this record Madonna completed the transition from young teeny-bopper appeal to a more adult-focused artistry and set up her career for the multi-decade superstar legend she has become. I loved the single “Like a Prayer” immediately and found “Express Yourself” to be a powerful anthem. In listening to the rest of album today, I realized just how amazing it is. Madonna is never going to be confused with Maria Callas. But the vocal performances throughout the album are deeply emotional and remarkably so. Just a monster album and a pillar of late-80’s pop music.
