John Renbourn :: Live In Kyoto 1978 aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/02/16/j... Poised and unhurried, the Jittoku Coffeehouse set finds Renbourn relaxed, patiently threading his repertoire before a hushed, attentive room.

RIP Robert Duvall: as central to American film as anyone in his generation

Today's teatime tunes: Hoagy Carmichael's son hired these guys to record songs (very loosely) based on his dad's work for a kid's tv series. And they came up with THIS, leader Monty Stark distorting his vibes through every pedal available. And I'm sure he sings 'Charles Manson'. Twice. Mental.

RIP Bob Duvall.

#nowplaying Just arrived, Spirit of ‘76, a tripped out acid casualty sounding sprawling mess slash masterpiece that does not feel like it was recorded in 1975.

as if darkness were indeed the proper element of our essences, though light be more congenial to our clayey part

Larry the cat celebrates 15 years as the British government’s official rodent-catcher and unofficial first feline, a reassuring presence who has served under six prime ministers. Sometimes it seems like they have served under him.

When that wicked king was slain, the dogs, did they not lick his blood?

had to repost that just so i could flex my ability to correctly spell koyaanisqatsi without looking it up

Man Seated on a Bed (1906) shows how a room can be felt. The sparse space and stark shadows mark an early experiment in shaping eerie and contemplative moods. This transitional work bridges academic figure study with emerging realism.

Happy birthday John Adams 🎂 📷 Jack Vartoogian, 1987 "The days when his embrace of bright tonality & luscious symphonic textures chafed against the aesthetics of a modernist mainstream are gone, along with the very notion of a mainstream." - Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim

[in a normal person voice] That's Bob Peak's art. Not sure if it's actually him, but I recognize the style from an album cover.

Barbara Stanwyck knew how to make an entrance. Oscar goes bad as explore killers, schemers, thrillers and everything in between during today's lineup. See DOUBLE INDEMNITY at 12pm ET.

The Strawberry Alarm Clock with the Voxmobile, 1967. It really did have guitar plug ins and a keyboard in the trunk.

an unctuous mass wholly free from bones

i often think about this review

RIP & thanks for all the music, Mr. Jerry Kennedy who passed away this week. He's the opening guitar you hear on Orbison's "Pretty Woman," the lead on Wynette's "Stand By Your Man," he's on Blonde on Blonde album, Tom T. Hall's producer. One of the greats, without a doubt. youtu.be/REOgLaIQD5U?...

Not often do you score a 1972 paperback edition of The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac in a free library but I did today.

'The Balcony.' (1934) One of the most appealing British artists of 20thC, Kenneth Rowntree had a great gift in recording the face of various towns and cities in England and Wales.

Remembering Tim Buckley on his birthday 🎂 📷 David Gahr, 1967 "His uncompromising artistry and avant-garde ways were simply a world away from the radio waves that were needed if you wanted anything other than subterranean success." - Tom Taylor

The Commitments, 1991 A great tagline: They had absolutely nothing. But they were willing to risk it all. One wonders how involved the old ad-man Alan Parker was with the promotional for his film.
