Here's a Hollywood Reporter article.

Rewatched The Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood, still a good classic western.

Also Nightcrawler with Jake Gyllenhaall, and it's still an interesting film.

I have seen the main three westerns: Buchanan Rides Alone, The Tall T, Ride Lonesome, and 7 Men From Now. I'll have to check into the others, I'd not heard of them. All of those are worth...

Buchanan Rides Alone--western directed by Budd Boetticher and starring Randolph Scott. Pretty good western, although there's an episode in the middle of the film that's a bit far fetched. Still I...

NY Times obit

A Time To Kill--John Grisham novel adapted to screen about a young black girl that is attacked by two rednecks and the repercussions on her family and the town. It struck me as somewhat dated maybe...

The Impossible--disaster movie with Ewan McGregor & Naomi Watts--family stuck in a tsunami. Fairly emotional piece and well done effects.

And, lastly, I super-loved the discussion at last night's TC! I thought it was an interesting decision for Kellee to call out Jamal for his "girl's alliance" comment, and I really appreciated how he...

Thanks, RIP.

Two-Lane Blacktop--interesting road picture from the 70s. The bonus extras with the director and screen writer are good too.

Meatball Machine--is another one of those crazy Asian horror films like Tokyo Gore Police, Machine Girl that accentuates gore and crazy. I don't think anything in the story was particularly new, but...

Yeah, that's not bad for rural country people, heck, people still marry like that today, particularly the trophy wife thing. At least they were from different families.

Al Doum And The Faryds's, Spirit Rejoin--is sort of a prog jazz mixture of styles.

BobM--yeah, it's always good to have a keyboard or some kind of instrument around for creativity. Good luck.

I thought this was an interesting comparison between these two synths:

...

I probably should have said: I've not sat down and listened to it intently (never bought it). I've sampled it, and from that I can make a judgement, and I think that's pretty typical. I've had...

Not for me. I've never heard it. I always enjoyed their earlier albums up to around Made in Rock.

I was surprised by Kris Kristofferson's story about getting the letter from his mother. It never said whether they made up or not, but had I been in his shoes, it would have been hard to do once he...

I'd agree somewhat. I think it was in the deadpan vocals similar to say The Talking Heads among others. When their first lp came out I thought it was the greatest. But with each new album I...

Last night I learned that the famous Nudie suits were heavy and hot to wear onstage. Here is the late Gram Parsons' Nudie suit:

I remember seeing the Porter Wagner show many years ago, and he used...

RIP, Sid Haig--B movie actor.

When they are able to implant a chip in us, the distraction of using a handheld device won't be as noticeable.

Also would need a speaker to play it through and no idea what to get there.

From reading about it on YT, it looks like you'd need a speaker, but speakers, amps are pretty cheap now, and you...

But I didn't do anything.
They drew first blood not me. :lol

Sounds good. :up There's a lot of ways to go with that, and that's a good broad, self-contained pedal. I can see why these pedals sell well.

I enjoyed it and I'm not a huge country fan. I thought it was loaded with some factoids that I wasn't aware of that really added to the watching. Really I think it's one of Burns better docs. I...

That ASM Hydra looks incredible, and compared to a lot of synths, priced about right for the features.

The new Prog magazine has an interview with Peter Baumann, and Tony Banks, among Camel too....

I caught it off Showtime. But check out the crime series, Too Old To Die Young, it's on Amazon Prime. I've really enjoyed it. Sort of slow and artsy in places though.

Rust Creek--horror, crime movie about a girl over the holidays has car trouble and approached by some convict brothers. Pretty decent, and fairly intense at times.

Match the instrument to its origin country. I got 7 out of the 12 questions.

Paul Motian--Selected Recordings ECM

Yeah, I liked The Boys, I'm generally tired of superheros unless done differently.

A head's up--Ken Burns new doc series starts Sunday night about country music. I'm not a country fan, but like...

Thanks, ECM is one of my favorite labels.

Too Old To Die Young--new series on Amazon. It's a crime drama by Nicolas Winding Refn, who also did Drive and The Neon Demon, among others. It's a crime series sort of a mix of David Lynch and...

Diamanda Galas--All the Way

Plinth--Music for Small Lighthouses


Dave Clarkson--Music for Lighthouses

Maybe so bad, it's good?

To Old to Die Young--is a series on Amazon, which has pretty mixed reviews from customers, but I enjoyed it. Granted Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, Neon Demon) isn't for everybody--even I have...

To of my faves for sure. I tried out as an extra for Midnight Cowboy. Little did I know they were wanting some Deliverance-style extras for the opening of the film. :) I wasn't picked, but still...

Hunt for the Wilderpeople--an independent film was like Sarah Connor in Terminator. It was majestical and gangsta. There was a perv in there too. :) Fun movie.

Arch Echo--I never heard of them, but sounded pretty interesting, somewhat djent, a word I'd never heard before. Djent (/dʒɛnt/) is a subgenre of progressive metal, named for an onomatopoeia for the...

Bell From Hell--odd Eurohorror, giallo about a guy that gets released from an insane asylum to exact revenge on those who put him there. Pretty slow, but worthwhile.

A Single Man--Colin Firth...

On Becoming A God in Central Florida--series on Showtime about a pyramid scheme similar to Amway or other such selling schemes. Kirsten Dunst plays one of the main leads that is skeptical about the...

Hitsville: The Making of Motown--good doc on the music and label

Halston: pretty decent doc on the fashion designer

Elastic Rock: A Survey of Jazz, Tony Adam

Simon Moon: I've seen them all too, but never understood why Run Lola, Run was considered special. I don't care a lot for A Few Good Men either (ok for once, I prefer Cruise in action flicks).

I agree if you're going to do a remake, which 12 Angry Men didn't need one to begin with, you could have just called it Twelve. I would think with all the social media around, etc. the word would...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhfqoNsDjVI

I think it's just another way to recommend something. Buy Dark Side of the Moon before you buy More, etc. Buy Crimson before you buy Rolling Stones or whoever. It's also a list game, which...

The Florida Project--a pretty sad and depressing movie about an unfit mother raising her child in sunlit Florida. That said I did find it watchable.

Aquaman--on the other hand, I found this one...

If you're going to check out Mandy you might as well check out the Beyond the Black Rainbow soundtrack by the same director that made Mandy.

Gilbert Gottfried talking to Anne Serling, Rod Serling's daughter about the old Twilight Zone.

Klaus Schulze--Dune & Time Wind
Eberhard Weber--Fluid Rustle
Suzanne Ciani
Jade Warrior's--Autumn's Last Dream
Mark Isham--Film Music
Spyro Gyra--Morning Dance, many others
Latitude--s/t...

Khruangbin--Con Todo El Mundo

re: Jane Fonda

For me it's Barbarella, Coming Home, The China Syndrome, On Golden Pond, probably more.

I always go for their first three and also like In Rock.
