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.

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.

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:
