Friday Night Music

Friday, August 24, 2012

A few weeks ago I wrote a post about an art exhibit in Vermont featuring portraits of rock stars that died at the age of 27, which included the likes of Jim Morrison, Brian Jones, Amy Weinhouse, and a host of others. Last week I saw this video here, featuring another singer that died young, […]

Friday Night Music, and a bit more

Friday, August 3, 2012

Okay, so we’re beginning our annual Vermont vacation a bit early this year. My sister is renting the place we rent every summer this week, and our rental begins tomorrow, so we’ve been her guests since yesterday, and she’ll be our guest starting tomorrow. Political blogging will be sparse, though who knows, I may inflict […]

Friday Night Music

Friday, July 27, 2012

I sort of wracked my brain trying to think of a song about someone (think Romney) who keeps putting his foot in his mouth, but couldn’t come up with anything, but I finally found this, which is somewhat apropos. The fact that the first comment on youtube was to the effect that it would be […]

Song of Joy

Monday, July 2, 2012

Stuff like this makes me regain my faith in the human race. Helps you forget the Bill O’Reilly’s, Rush Limbaughs, and Mitt Romneys of the world, at least for a while.

Friday Night Music-A Teabagger’s Anthem

Friday, June 29, 2012

Or is it lament? Whatever. In light of the recent decision, this seemed like a good pick. Dedicated to our friends on the right. It appears to express their feelings, at least in the refrain. I couldn't find a decent video of this from the late, great, Ray Charles, but this version by John Mayer […]

Friday Night Music-Heat Wave

Friday, June 22, 2012

Not a great video, but this, in one or more reincarnations, is pretty much it for this song. It’s a great song, and we’re certainly having a heat wave, so…

Somewhat topical; Arlo Guthrie, Emmy Lou Harris and others singing Woody Guthrie’s Deportee. Just goes to show some things never change. Obama’s announcement today was no doubt politically motivated, but unlike some politically motivated gestures I could mention, it was the right thing to do. By the way, it looks like I can pick them.
