Batman Returns 1992 [Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman!)
BATMAN RETURNS
1992, dir. Tim Burton
I never tire of posting Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman (mostly for my dear pal Phil! who pointed out the performance to me and who’s obsession I shared ever since as we were in thrall to the role)! I always enjoyed telling Michelle's anecdote about learning to crack the whip ( she could really use it and did the scene whipping heads off mannequins in one take and for real) and off course we mused that she had 18 versions of her Catwoman costume and that she had to be hand sewn into every time ( if ever there was a keener two desirous to change our jobs it was us! Why I can sew! I SWEAR!
Kelly Boesch - My Mind’s In The Future
well that sound about right . . . . . . music for a Friday winding down for the weekend . . . . . . .
Kelly says:
I made these images and found them so interesting. They have this futuristic feel as the people almost feel like androids in some scenes. But the clothing and background has a very old feel. I dig the juxtaposition. That’s where I got the idea for the song lyrics. Part future part past. It’s also a take on not being in the moment and thinking about the future. Which normally can cause anxiety...unless you are daydreaming of cool things that may come to be :-) I also found it interesting that it seems the people in these scenes are talking telepathically, and sometimes fire appears. And can we talk about the fashion and prints. Even on the furniture. Stunning. AI can be so weird and cool. "
My Mind’s In The Future[Verse] We were friends but only in the dream If you think too hard you’ll know what I mean I can hear you breathing and it’s all I see Take me to the place I can finally sleep Are you comin’ with me?[Chorus] And my mind’s in the future But my body’s in the past Yeah My mind’s in the future But my body’s in the past I don’t want to go back Let’s make this moment last[Verse 2] We are meant to live in time but we can’t Your heart’s right here but I see where it went If we live forever we will just pretend Maybe there’s a place where we can meet again Will you meet me then?[Chorus] ‘Cause my mind’s in the future But my body’s in the past Yeah My mind’s in the future But my body’s in the past I don’t want to go back Let’s make this moment last[Bridge] Where can I find you? Tell me[Chorus] And my mind’s in the future But my body’s in the past Yeah

Love - Fillmore West, San Francisco, CA, 11-23-1970 | ALBUMS THAT SHOULD EXIST
Love - Fillmore West, San Francisco, CA, 11-23-1970
In my opinion, "Forever Changes" by Love is easily one of the top 100 albums of all time. Many music critics have said the same. Unfortunately though, Love didn't play live much when the concert came out in 1967, actually never leaving the Los Angeles area, and when the did, it seems nobody was there to record it. As far as I can tell, it's not until 1970 that there are concert bootlegs. So I tried to find the best one from that year in order to post it here.
In 2015, an official live box set was released, called "Coming Through to You: The Live Recordings 1970-2004." But three out of the four CDs are from the 1990s or 2000s. The first CD is all from 1970, but it's two or three songs each from five different concerts. I wanted to hear a single concert all the way through. This Fillmore West concert was the best sounding one I could find. There's no overlap with the official box set, although it includes three songs recorded at that venue a couple of days prior to this concert.
This is a soundboard recording, but not the greatest in terms of sound quality. The main issue is the vocals were very low in the mix. That probably explains why this hasn't gotten around much on bootleg trading sites. But that's something that can be easily fixed these days, so I fixed it (using the UVR5 audio editing program). I also cleaned things up, like extra low volume of banter, and song titles being wrong. It's a much better listen now, in my opinion.
One song, "Find Somebody," has "[Edit]" in its title. It was split into two files, with a gap in between. However, I managed to patch it back together in a way that hopefully should make the split totally unnoticeable.
I assume the people who made the live box set mentioned above looked for live material prior to 1970, and didn't find any. So this is probably as close as we're going to get, chronologically, to hearing Love in 1967. (Along with the 1970 disc of the official box set.) Mostly, the band was playing different songs. In fact, there are only two "Forever Changes" songs here ("Andmoreagain" and "Bummer in the Summer"). But Love was still making very good music at least through 1970. All the songs here are solid.
By the way, three of the songs repeat between the early and late shows: "Product of the Times," "Stand Out," and "Singing Cowboy." I decided to keep both versions in each case.
This album is an hour and seven minutes long.
