Listen to Lost Tapes of Madonna's Earliest Music

Tina Brown's The Daily Beast web site features an exclusive audio tape of one of Madonna's earliest recordings.



The raw footage even includes a few seconds of "Tell The Truth," the very first song Madonna ever wrote in the basement of a synagogue in Queens in the early '80s. The original audio recordings are interspersed by the speech Madonna gave during her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year. This is some impressive stuff. I like this early Madonna. Bold and vulnerable without any of the frills we've come to expect from her.
