The 2023 book Whalefall was an incredible thriller that I devoured in a weekend! This film looks to do that book justice! www.youtube.com/watch?v=67ho...

I'm young enough to remember the variations in album art,🤓 Summer of '78💯❤️❗

#MusicHistory On this day 2003, Radiohead released their 6th album, Hail to the Thief. It fused Radiohead’s electronic unease with a sharper, guitar-driven urgency. It hit #1 in the UK, #3 in the US. It gave us “There There,” “2 + 2 = 5,” and “Go to Sleep.” Restless, paranoid, & underrated.

#MusicHistory On this day 1978, The Rolling Stones released one of their greatest late-’70s statements, Some Girls. It was a massive commercial comeback for the band. It hit #1 in the US & #2 in the UK & produced some Stones classics: “Miss You,” “Beast of Burden,” “Shattered,” and “Respectable.”

#MusicHistory On this day 1978, Dire Straits released their self-titled debut album. It hit #2 in the US & #5 in the UK, and introduced the album's signature, the band's 1st major hit, “Sultans of Swing". Mark Knopfler on his 1961 Fender Stratocaster, perfection! www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0ff...

thanks! That's one I haven't seen. Here's one for you!

Meme jeu de mot avec buoy / boy, en lien avec cette chanson. Comment est-ce possible que je n'ai jamais entendu cette chanson, ni même ce groupe ? C'est pourtant dans mes cordes. Trop blancs peut-être ? Nah, j'adore Average White Band. Bref, un mystère. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHcY...

7 de junio de 1987 David Bowie cantó «Heroes» en el Muro de Berlín. Miles de personas lo escucharon desde el Este, separadas por el hormigón, los guardias y el miedo. Aun así, el mensaje de Bowie llegó a su destino.

Yep! This one goes out to all the working musicians out there. Those of us who are left.

We are shutting down this establishment. Any future posts will have to be approved by UN bsky Council vote. You have been warned. The next buoy you harass in this manner will be able to defend itself. And yes, the first five Seal teams WERE buoys. Who do you think trained the 6th???

Friend sent this music deep cut over. Too funny not to share! 😂

Waiting for @praddenkeefe.bsky.social podcast about how British Intelligence got Bowie to write Heroes. ❤️🤗

Oh man, I'd listen to that in a heartbeat! One of my fave book is Burning Down The Haus (2019), and it tells a gripping story about East German Punk Music and it's part of history in the Fall of the Berlin Wall. Fascinating! a.co/d/0056oYRQ

Heyyyyy you Guyyyyysssss! (Well, Nobody else said it...)

For me an adult it’s deeply flawed script structure wise & w/ the story structure editing, but I still enjoy the hell out of it, it’s well acted well made. 2 of my favorite Richard Donner movies coming out the same year (this & LadyHawke, which I’m a bigger fan of)? Priceless

i watched it for the first time in 2020 when i got my 4K version... loved the pirate ship set near the end and that they kept it a secret from the cast until the day of shooting

#MusicHistory On this day 2005, The White Stripes released their 5th album, Get Behind Me Satan. One of most misunderstood albums in their catalog. After White Blood Cells & Elephant, the easy move was more volume & swagger. Instead, they stripped things back and made one of their boldest records.

If not, then you`re cool." - Prince The legendary Prince Rogers Nelson was born on this day 1958 in Minneapolis, MN.

“Goonies never say die!” #FilmHistory On this day 1985, Richard Donner’s beloved adventure classic The Goonies was released. One of those movies that never really grows old. Mikey’s hope. Data’s gadgets. Mouth’s chaos. Chunk’s confession. Sloth’s heart. The Fratellis. One-Eyed Willy’s ship.

#FilmHistory On this day 1996, The Rock hit theaters & gave us Nicolas Cage defusing nerve gas, Sean Connery escaping Alcatraz, Ed Harris going rogue, & Michael Bay discovering his love language: explosions! Ridiculous. Loud. Perfect. An iconic ’90s film operating at full volume!

#MusicHistory On this day 1987, David Bowie sang “Heroes” at The Berlin Wall. Thousands listened from the East, separated by concrete, guards, & fear. Bowie’s message crossed anyway. “We send our wishes to all our friends who are on the other side of the wall.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fdyk...

#MusicHistory On this day 1994, Stone Temple Pilots released their massive 2nd album, Purple. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 & delivered some of STP’s most iconic songs, including “Vasoline,” “Interstate Love Song,” and “Big Empty.” It sold over 6-million copies.

It's not unheard of though and just like with the cars it usually means that the band has been together a while and honing their act in live shows. By the time the cars got a recording contract they had a whole set and more, they just had to choose their best songs to include on the disc

One of the absolute greatest albums of the 70s and perhaps all-time.

He and the family received over 400 letters and good wishes from people in France this year. They also did a write-up about in in a french newspaper. He's quite a guy!

Elliott Easton ruled that record

My sister's father-in-law from Nova Scotia took part in the D-day invasion and fought in Normandy, where he lost a leg. He celebrated his 108th birthday last month!

We should all be forever grateful to those who participated in that Antifa operation

This week in 1947, at Harvard, George C. Marshall gave a quiet commencement speech with enormous consequences. Europe was still shattered from WWII. Marshall argued that peace required recovery. That idea became The Marshall Plan — one of the most consequential rebuilding efforts in modern history.

82 years ago today, nearly 160,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy and began the liberation of Western Europe. D-Day did not end the war. But it changed the direction of it. Courage, sacrifice, terror, duty — all converged on five beaches: Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword. #DDay #WorldHistory

#MusicHistory On this day, 1996, the Scottish indie pop band Belle and Sebastian released their debut album, Tigermilk, by Electric Honey, in a limited vinyl run of only 1,000 copies. Its reputation only grew after the release of their 2nd album, If You’re Feeling Sinister later that same year.

#MusicHistory Not many debut albums sound like a greatest hits record. This one did. On this day, 1978, The Cars released their debut album. What a run of songs! “Just What I Needed,” “My Best Friend’s Girl,” “Good Times Roll,” “Bye Bye Love,” “You’re All I’ve Got Tonight,” and “Moving in Stereo.”

Oh man. Such a great actor.

#MusicHistory On this day 2001, Radiohead released Amnesiac in the US. Recorded during the same sessions as Kid A, it became its own strange, haunted world. “Pyramid Song,” “Knives Out,” “I Might Be Wrong,” “You and Whose Army?,” and “Life in a Glasshouse” still feel beautifully unsettled.

#FilmHistory On this day 1998, The Truman Show was released. Directed by Peter Weir & starring Jim Carrey in career defining performance. The phrase “Truman Show Delusion” entered cultural & psychological discussions, describing people who believe their lives are secretly being filmed or staged.

#MusicHistory On this day 1975, Syd Barrett unexpectedly appeared at Abbey Road while Pink Floyd were working on Wish You Were Here. They were listening to “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” — their tribute to Syd. Nearly unrecognizable, he left without saying goodbye. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWGE...
