Sad! Il Deserto Rosso is one of my favourite movies.

Excellent film, great actress. And absolutely stunning to boot. RIP

George Crumb. A lot of his music moved me. When I was younger I had some records of the guitarist David Starobin playing his works. They inspired me even though I was/am too dumb to wrap my head around them. Here is his obit and a video of his most famous peice.

Syl Johnson.

Ms. Betty Davis. The greatest to ever do it.

PJ O'Rourke. The world is that bit poorer today. Safe journey.

Supposedly the guy was able to question other right wingers and push them on matters of ethics. Still, I get no joy from the Buckley meets Thompson shtick.

Dallas Good of The Sadies. RIP.

Just got word of Dallas Good of the Sadies passing. He was a beautiful guy and naturally gifted musician. Opened every conversation laughing, a warm, unpretentious soul. Everybody who knew him feels like they lost a brother. Requiescat.
