Today is singer Kiki Dee's birthday. Though she'd been cutting records since the 60's, it wasn't until she teamed up with Elton John in the late 70's that Kiki Dee's career took off, with both her hit single "I've Got The Music In Me" and her duet with Elton on "Don't Go Breaking My Heart." Despite the two-fisted takeoff, the flight of her career was short, and she settled back into relative musical obscurity, despite both of her biggest hits remaining popular today.



Though Kiki Dee's hit years were confined to a very brief period, it was the hit period of the 8-track. Both Kiki Dee and that era are recalled with this sealed 8-track of her "I've Got The Music In Me" album.
