He's been one of the greatest songwriters on Earth for over 40 years. The list is... partially tongue-in-cheek, I think: "The second-last song on every album is the weakest"? "Going Blind" is PERFECT.

I hope you've at least made it to track 9, his take on Cole Porter's "What Is This Thing Called Love?". That clarinet line (Ted Nash, if I'm not mistaken) - man oh man... No wonder Ian Curtis liked Sinatra so much (to the exasperation of his bandmates). He actually took his own life in the wee small hours of the morning - Frank's LP might as well have been on the turntable instead of Iggy Pop's The Idiot.

Come to think of it, alright, I "dropped the ball", as you U.S. cats say, but am I the only one who can start obituary threads around here? And Barbara's SY connections were multiple, so damn all of ya! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Ess https://www.bard.edu/news/photograph...rum-2021-03-08 https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/09/a...-ess-dead.html From The New York Times: Ms. Ess joined the photography department at Bard College in 1997. There she influenced a small but key segment of the younger art world, including the Lower East Side gallerist James Fuentes. “In a critique or meeting about my thesis,” Mr. Fuentes recalled, “she would conjure a Sonic Youth song and start singing it.”

Speaking of, I was in contact with Jacqui Ham until the pandemonium struck. I believe the reissue of Griller should have followed not long after In Gut's House's (that was January 31, 2020), but Covid-19 probably postponed it. (Maybe you know more via your Facemook shenanigans there. )

Apparently there's also something called DarkDARK: Look at those fucking assholes. I mean, that's when things come to a point in which I don't even care what they sound like - CLEARLY they're ASSHOLES. They "feel so much"? Horseshit. Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em in the EAR. Fuck 'em in the OTHER ear.

im finally listening to some of this band i like how she sings, and some tunes are pleasant, but i got many queued up, so i don't have an overall impression yet. so far, it's nice and mellow. |

Lana Del Rey - Chemtrails Over The Country Club.
I fucking love this. Third spin. This is not Norman Fucking Rockwell II. It's more laid back, more atmospheric.

I could make it through more than a track or two. Boring to me. But when it comes to Lana, I like individual songs here and there, but never have totally fallen for an album. Also she’s kind of a tone deaf weirdo and she’s developed a bit of a reputation for being — uhh — maybe not overtly racist, but possible QAnon material? I dunno. Anyway, the huge Walmart sticker on the physical edition is gross lol |

Well, yeah, I haven't followed the drama closely, but some of her statements are.....troubling. Her life is clearly not perfect. But I am fucking loving this album.

Shine A Light, innit? I seem to recall that even Scorsese seemed to shrink in Jagger's presence.
