Just because . . . . .




 . . . . . . this is great and must have missed from the 'official' screening of Bobfest 30th Anniversary

I miss Richard, Ricky and Levon and reading about the guys who 'stood in' for Jaime is fairly depressing also
Got to that age where most of my heroes are dead or dying . . still what the heck
Here we go! TURN IT UP and boogie til your sore!

PIRELLI CALENDAR 2016


A lifelong fan of the Pirelli Calendar from Brian Duffy (twice) to Barry Lategan, Sarah Moon, Harry Peccinotti to today with Annie Leibowitz you could always say "well as an Art student I need to observe what's going on" . . . . ha ha h a ha and all in the name or under the guise of art we men could satiate our sexist agenda with some vestige of hip. BUT for 2016 we might have known Annie Leibowitz would play it differently and you would be right!
A women of all ages, women of today theme Pirelli seems to have allowed her carte blanche to do whatever she wished and boy, did you know it was going to be different!
The shot of comedian Amy Schumer nearly nude is causing a hullabaloo for her chutzpah and sheer in your face bravado and Serena Williams in practically the same garb is brave but this also features shots of Yoko who is how old now!? Does it matter? Not one heck gosh darn iota!

Here's the shot of Patti . . . . . one of her best and one of THE best of Patti EVER . . .  in her sixties

New compilation of Bobby material from the exceptional Thousand Highways


Bob Dylan - The Thundering Sky: 

Unreleased Live Recordings, 1995




Haven't posted anything for a while from 'Thousand Highways' but his site is always worth a visit. I am on record somewhere as saying I don't care for compilation live albums but CS' work is the exception that proves the rule. They are chosen with discernment and filled with care and the liner notes he publishes online are always fascinating and always worth a read. I don't see how you won't get hooked and once you have heard one why, you will want to collect them all! Today's posting from 1995 is no exception and if you have not come across his fine fine work before why not start here!? He explains in the notes why 1995 is such an interesting date for Dylan and the two volumes are split into electric and acoustic for obvious reasons . . . . . . for more go to the site and check it out
Enjoy! I did (do!?) . . . . . .

LOU REED Rock N Roll Animal: The Complete Concert – The 1973 Academy Of Music Performance (1973/2015)

Rock N Roll Animal_ The Complete ConcertRock N Roll Animal: The Complete Concert (1973/2015)
Because It Needed To Be Done…
Lou Reed’s complete Academy Of Music Concert from December 21, 1973, which was first issued (in part) on 1974’s Rock N Roll Animal. Further excerpts from the show found their way onto 1975’s Lou Reed Live. So, between both albums, the entire show has been officially released, but not in its original sequence, which this excellent fan-made concoction does for the first time. Why Lou’s label hasn’t thought of this yet is clearly an oversight, but if they did, they would probably have created a 45 to help promote it, which the compiler here has thoughtfully already done – including exclusive, edited versions of “Sweet Jane” b/w “Rock N Roll.” The only thing missing is a bio and 8×10. Lou’s backing band for this show is killer, bringing some much-needed power and energy to Reed’s well documented slacker indifference. Four of the five players would later form the core of Alice Cooper’s Welcome To My Nightmare band – Steve Hunter & Dick Wagner (guitars), Prakash John (bass), Ray Colcord (keyboards) and Pentti “Whitey” Glan (drums). This is the first time this nearly 90-minute, properly-sequenced “Complete Concert” (and the 45 edits) has been online, for which we are grateful to the original creator
