Gary Lucas on playing guitar or Beefheart, Lou Reed and Jeff Buckley - Guitar Magazine


“He threw an ashtray against the wall and said, ‘That’s the drum solo, man!’” Gary Lucas on Captain Beefheart’s paranoia, Lou Reed’s hypocrisy, Jeff Buckley’s genius and Bruce Springsteen’s generosity

 Captain Beefheart posing backstage at The Oakland Coliseum in 1976 in Oakland, California.

James Joyce - Ulysses: Molly Bloom's Soliloquy, The Last 50 Lines

 Gary (Lucas that is!) posted some interesting things in the last 24 hours including a SudioCanal version of Molly Blooms soliloquy from Joyce’s Ulysess for Blooms day ( yesterday ) It doesn't play here in the UK so here’ the last 50 lines from her speech

 from Angeline Ball’s reading of it from The film ‘Bloom'

James Joyce - Ulysses: Molly Bloom's Soliloquy, The Last 50 Lines

Angeline Ball in her IFTA Award winning role as Molly Bloom from the film Bloom. Official site of the film is www.ulysses.ie 

Joycean scholar David Norris said that she "is quite the best of all the myriad of Molly Blooms that I have seen." While Charles Byrne of the Royal Television Society declared that, "This Molly Bloom would even make Sharon Stone blush. Angeline Ball was born to play the role. She is voluptuous and earthy and, in short, she is every living man's fantasy."

Townes van Zandt - Snowin' on Raton

 Much has been written about Townes Van Zandt’s songwriting and his addiction to alcohol and that by the time he wrote this heart wrenching song (1985) it was apparent the level of his addiction was always going to be a problem [he died ten years later at a mere 52] and clearly he was singing about facing forces inherent in life’s darker journey but it stands as an extraordinary document of an alcoholic facing his mortality perhaps IMO. As the text below notes it stands as one of the greatest songs ever written

Townes van Zandt - Snowin' on Raton

"TOWNES VAN ZANDT WROTE "SNOWIN' ON RATON" LIKE A MAN WHO ALREADY KNEW HE COULD NOT BE SAVED.

There is no drama in the song. No angry confrontation with fate. No desperate plea for redemption. Only the quiet image of a weary traveler watching snow drift across Raton Pass from the window of a moving train.

By the time Townes wrote "Snowin' on Raton," years of wandering, addiction, loneliness, and hard living had already shaped the man behind the music. Yet the song carries an unexpected stillness that sets it apart from many of his most heartbreaking compositions.

"You cannot turn the circles of the sun."

It's one of the most unforgettable lines Townes ever wrote. But understanding why it resonates so deeply requires looking beyond the lyrics themselves—and into the life of a songwriter who spent much of his existence searching for something he could never quite hold onto."

Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and Molly Tuttle - “Didn’t Leave Nobody But The Baby”

 Molly Tuttle shared this extraordinary gem . . . .reflecting her astonishment at her company with great figures of country folk Americana Emmylou Harris and Alison Krauss cover the Brither Where Art Thou 25th Anniversary the masterpiece ‘Didn’t Leave Nothing But The Baby’


Molly says: "I will never forget this moment singing “Didn’t Leave Nobody But The Baby” with @alisonkrauss and @emmylouharrisofficial at the @opry for the 25th anniversary of “O Brother, Where Art Thou.” O Brother was my favorite movie as a kid and the soundtrack shaped the musician I am today. Alison, Emmylou, and @gillianwelchofficial, who sang this iconic song in the unforgettable “siren” scene, are three of my all time biggest heroes- Gillian was overseas on tour in Australia and I was lucky enough to be her stand in”!
so might sign off for the day with this haunting classic Americana pome
