Bananas

Not his best movie ever, but in it we see a sound evolution of Woody's love for 30's and 40's jazz. It goes from slapstick silly in "Bananas" to romanticism in "Annie Hall" to epic Gershwin pieces featured in Manhattan. Man loves city. City loves music.

Where we're going we don't need roads.

It's time to dubstep into the future. I don't know what that means, but this song/artist is mellow dub step madness. may it lighten your day.

Volfoniq///all three tracks really///esp. Skango


Do you notice this thing happening with people and their computers and everyone becoming a DJ?

Je ne sais pas

Elisaaaa, Elisaaaa

Ice cream on a red hot stove

Okay guys, you don't know cool until you've heard this song and it's vocal range.

Jackson 5

I'll Bet You

....and exhale:

These are not pretty musicians

Good thing too, I don't like my musicians pretty.

Everlasting Light

This is a song by The Black Keys.

What else can I say other than I love it?

I ain't worried and I ain't scurried

Have a Good Time

I should be depressed, my life's a mess, but I'm havin' a good time.

I ain't worried and I ain't scurried.

Le clan des Siciliens

John Zorn -- avant-garde composer and also former of a punk band in the 80's. However this song is a cover of Ennio Morricone's The Sicilian Clan. Zorn/Morricone (pictured respectively) make a lovely pairing. I want to see this movie now (a french film by Henri Verneuil from 1969). Check out the trailer with what looks like the original Robert DeNiro:

From ze debut album October, here is U2's With a Shout. Chimpanzee that.

Munchies, or: Get Your Snack On

I am a bad blogette. I neglect blogly duties. But that can all be fixed by listening to this mind bending wizardry:
Get Your Snack On :: Amon Tobin

and to commemorate the start of the World Cup, here is this:

Elvis Viles

Who can resist Elvis? Not I. Those lips, those sideburns, that mascara! (in some cases). He really is a gorgeous man with an even more gorgeous voice. I've always liked this song - Surrender - and someone put a lurvely little video together for the song. Long live the king.

The Mystic Knights

Oingo Boingo...Hercules Family Theme from the film Forbidden Zone. Have a taste below.

Let's get Murphiphied!

Dance Yrself Clean --- LCD Soundsystem

All in town who are fans should be reeling with excitement because he's HERE! TONIGHT! At the Palladium! Oh boy oh boy oh boy.

In Through the Out Door

Fool in the Rain :: Led Zeppelin

That's right, it's an obscure, whistle blowing infused rarity. Raise your hand if you hate when DJ's say they're pulling the led out...

That's someone raising BOTH their hands. I know, I'm endlessly entertaining.

Ever heard of a little show called Soul Train?

loudon

Loudon Wainwright III: father of Rufus and Mary, actor, singer, and tamer of shetland ponies, the man is a legend. He's been around since the 40's and he's even appeared on a Scorsese soundtrack. Anyone who is a III is a well established individual indeed.
