BGM Remembers Luther Vandross

Hello Everyone!

April 20th, 2011 would have been Luther Vandross' 60th Birthday. We loss a very great man who gave us wonderful songs about love and human relationships. I personally feel a great connection to Luther's music, and I also think that Luther's music resonates greatly with black gay men. From our Secret Loves, to dealing with the houses that we grew up in that were not a home, to the desire to have that great relationship with our fathers and be able to dance with him again, to simply wanting to shine, Luther's music and legacy will live on through all of us. So here is a tribute to Luther on his 60th birthday, one of my favorite songs of his, Shine, and I hope that you all continue to shine and continue to live and stand in your truth and life.

Yours always,
BGM
