Rangers entering the playoffs firing on all cylinders. Congrats to the Isles for battling their way into the tournament. I would really love to see a renewal of post-season hostilities between the...

It's the original recordings just without overdubs (hence the name). "Jet" without the horns is harder sounding. No Tony Visconti orchestration. “Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" is an instrumental...

Just finished Living the Beatles Legend: The Untold Story of Mal Evans by Kenneth Womack. Probably in the top 5 of all the Beatles and adjacent books I've read. Turns out Mal was much more than just...

This is excellent. The black-and-white is gorgeous and places you firmly in the early 60s. Since I watch almost everything with subtitles anymore, I'll probably re-watch this to just enjoy the...

Paul McCartney & Wings - Band On The Run (Underdubbed Mixes)
I usually don't care for alternate mixes and suchlike but this is remarkable. It's just Paul, Denny and Linda and it sounds fantastic.

And on four different labels!

A recent addition to Netflix, The Greatest Night In Pop, a documentary about the USA For Africa project and the recording of the "We Are The World" single that followed the template created by Bob...

I thought Poor Things was very good. Picture Frankenstein, Alice In Wonderland and Big Fish tossed in a blender and directed by Terry Gilliam. Gorgeously shot and designed and creatively directed.

Well, Roslovic can play RW and apparently Trouba is out 2-3 weeks which I wasn't aware of, which is the reason for Ruhwedel. To me the key to the Rangers going deep in the playoffs, or at the very...

Saturday night in Toronto: Reaves. You know he's not gonna let the kid come into his building without a challenge.

This is great. Taj is a genius.

For fans of the show who may be interested, I just picked up the Kindle version of the book by Harry Crosby, "A Wing and a Prayer", on which the series is based, from Amazon for two bucks.

The Songs & Tales of Airoea – Book III from The Chronicles of Father Robin. Sounds incredible.

Don't know if I ever noticed before: The originals are all credited to "McCartney-Lennon".

Who is cast as Doctor Robert, and does he appear in the John film or the George film?

Matrix number in the run-out groove is "63-3403" catalog number is "VJLP 1062". I remember my mom buying it at either JJ Newberry, WT Grant, EJ Korvette or Woolworth when I was 8.

Still have my copy of Introducing The Beatles on Vee-Jay and "Twist and Shout" b/w "There's A Place" 45 on Tollie Records. Everything else is on Capitol or Apple. Most virtually unplayable though....

When they first presented the Stadium Series sweaters I didn't like any of them. I thought the Isles looked like the old supermarket generic product boxes: "SUGAR" "COFFEE". I really didn't like the...

I liked Oppenheimer a lot. Maybe breaking it up into two 90 minute sessions made it a bit easier for me to latch onto. I thought Cillian Murphy was excellent in the lead role but Robert Downey Jr....

It's the same with the NHL, if not worse. It's to the point where I no longer feel guilty about using "alternative sources" to view a game that I still can't watch on the multiple legitimate...

If the series representation is anything like what those aircraft were really like, it's unbelievable what they were able to accomplish. The CGI doesn't bother me and the bombing run sequences are...

Just finished Geddy's memoir. One of the best music autobios I've read. I always figured him for a solid cat and the book bears it out.

Now I really wanna see a "Reservoir Dogs" series.

Ironic that a team named in honor of Edgar Allan Poe would dig their own grave.

Well said. It's a shame that all she's known for in the wider world is "Brand New Key".

Very sad. She was a favorite. She hadn't even released a record when she played at Woodstock.

:lol

Surely, you can't be serious!

If Uncle Lou thinks the team needs a kick in the ass I can't think of another available coach that is more suited.

This site was kind of my portal into rediscovering progressive rock in the late 90s after being a huge fan in the 70s. It was through ProgEars that I found out about and attended my one and only...

Except for the final interaction between Sheriff Tillman and Trooper Farr. That one was right on the nose.

Fargo finale left a little to be desired but still unique television. Some fairly overt symbolism in the final scenes. Hamm and Temple were excellent.
Favorite line in the whole series, from episode...

Leans a little too far toward the supernatural for me but I'm gonna stick with it because all the other TD seasons have been good. I like the Alaskan setting with the 24 hour a day dark. It's...

Probably my favorite film of '22. I have pretty much the same opinion of Farrell but he really was excellent in this.

Mets shortstop Bud Harrelson has died. Mets fans of a certain age (and I may be the only one here) remember him fondly as the spark plug of the '69 World Championship team, a slick fielding...

He did get to play the anvil on "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" though.

Streaming still kicks cable/satellite's ass AFAIC. I'm paying less for only what I want, no home shopping channels, no religious channels, no kids channels and I can add and cancel at will without...

Hanks is terrific in this as always. I actually liked the Swedish original A Man Called Ove a bit more, subtitles notwithstanding.

Lawrence practiced Thursday and today. Don't be surprised if he's on the field in Cleveland on Sunday unless conditions are bad.

They're all great. I think the first season with Billy Bob was the best and Season 4 with Chris Rock and Jason Schwartzman is a close second but it's the writing that's the star of every season.

Bookie is a new half-hour comedy on Max, starring Sebastian Maniscalco who is really sharp and likable as an LA-area book maker whose livelihood is threatened by online betting. First episode...

If I Should Fall From Grace With God is a desert island disc for me. The 30 Years compilation includes a live disc featuring Joe Strummer.

I've loved every season but this one's near the top. Gotta say it's weird hearing "Keeley" from "Ted Lasso" speaking with that exaggerated Minnesota accent.

Not mention the yearly call to DirecTV "customer retention" department to threaten to cancel just to keep the cost affordable. Now if I don't want a specific service, I just cancel. No fees,...

IMO HBO Max is king for original content. Many of their series are first rate and quite varied.
I like Apple+ but I suspect I'm in the minority. They don't have a large selection but original series...

The return of Bucco Bruce! Not sure that Browns design will fly however.

Duck Soup was on TCM last night so I watched it even though I've seen it a couple dozen times, and own DVD and two different Blu-Ray editions. And it still made me laugh.

Could not have said it any better.

^We've come a long way from taking an hour to download Aerosmith's Head First 30 years ago.

Thus completing the circle. Such a joy to hear a new song with Paul and John singing together. I like this much more than either of the Anthology project "new" songs.
