About this episode
For the first in our four-part series on Kylie Minogue, Michael Cragg returns to Pop Pantheon to help unpack the origins of a zenith superstar of global pop, Kylie Minogue. Michael and Louie explore Kylie’s breakout moment, first with the Australian soap Neighbours, then “The Loco-Motion.” From there, they unpack her early work with eighties hitmakers Stock Aitken Waterman and her first brush at success in America. Then they tackle her coming of age on 1990’s Rhythm of Love, her final outing under the SAW banner, 1991’s Let’s Get To It, and her first post-SAW reinvention with 1994’s Kylie Minogue.
Join us next week for Part 2, in which we’ll discuss 1997's Impossible Princess, 2000's Light Years, 2001's Fever and 2003's Body Language.
