Pop Pantheon

CHER: PART 1 (with Hit Parade's Chris Molanphy)


Listen Later

Chris Molanphy returns to Pop Pantheon for part one of our special two-part series on the Goddess of Pop herself, Cher. Chris and Louie dig into the origins of Cher’s mythology, her early work with Sonny Bonno and Phil Spector and Sonny and Cher’s breakout hit, “I Got You Babe.” From there, they dive into Cher’s iconic looks, her first solo hits and Sonny and Cher’s reinvention as television variety stars. Then they tackle the couple’s split, Cher’s second run of hits, including “Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves” and “Dark Lady,” and the commercial slump she found herself at the end of the seventies. 


Tune in next week for part two, covering Cher’s disco reinvention, Hollywood success, late career hits like "If I Could Turn Back Time" and “Believe” and her ranking in the Official Pop Pantheon.

Come to our dance party Main Pop Girls on 2/1 at Parkside Lounge in NYC!
