If memory serves John Wayne HATED High Noon, even called it a communist film - and made Rio Bravo with Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson as a sort of answer to show people coming together or what not - and despite that casting is a pretty good film - I prefer the remake El Dorado with Robert Mitchum but probbably because I saw that first as a kid.

I heard the song "Garden Party" on the radio yesterday and thought that I've always rather liked it - - - but didn't have a clue what it was about. In fact I didn't have a clue what it was called either - - I guessed it was called All Right Now - - but thanks to the wonders of Youtube it didn't take me long to track it down: Ricky Nelson - - and, again, I really didn't know anything about...

“Music is what feelings sound like.” Some of the new music I purchased in the past few weeks include: The Bright Mississippi by Allen Toussaint – A fabulously relaxing New Orleans jazz CD by an elegant artist. I discovered Toussaint through Elvis Costello’s CD with him “The River in Reverse.” Toussaint plays piano and I found his take on Duke Ellington’s “Solitude”...

Recently, my uncle -- a film buff to put most other film buffs to shame -- sent me a clipping from the Seattle Times, in which critic John Hartl celebrated the greatest movie year of all time. Not 1939, as is generally accepted, but 1959. And I have to agree with him. It was an amazing time when the old Hollywood guard was winding down and creating their final masterpieces, new upstarts were coming...

Someday we'll be able to see this stuff in hi-def on our computers, but for now, I kind of like the ultra crappy quality of Youtube uploads, and it's free (that won't last for ever, bet your undershorts on that). Here's a few of my favorite clips, some rare, some fairly common, all great. Amos Milburn & his Chicken Shackers....what's a shacker? The Johnny Burnette Trio take first prize on Ted Mack's...

...is Jackie DeShannon. DeShannon celebrated her birthday this past Friday. She is of course the artist who brought the quintessential Hal David-Burt Bacharach composition "What the World Needs Now" to life (with Bacharach's production, if I'm not mistaken) in 1965. Following the form of a prayer or sermon, the song remains timely these many years later. The form recalls the style of Johnny...

How come no one makes a scanner that fits a 12 x 12 LP? Bobby Lee Trammell rocks out. Bobby Lee Trammel, 1958. Bobby Lee Trammell (b. Jan. 31, 1934) was crazy.
