Janis Joplin
Unconventional Thinking (Free subscription) | 23/11/2009
This is an American celebration. That it was short lived, like a July 4th fireworks, is meaningless. It was a cosmic explosion. A transcendental experience.

TONITE: Get Your Freak Folk On
Phawker (Free subscription) | yesterday

Even though she no longer lives there, the exact location will have to remain a secret because, technically speaking, L&I [...]

Vulture (Free subscription) | 20/11/2009
On Wednesday night, the National Arts Club awarded its Medal of Honor in Film to director Ang Lee and his longtime collaborator, Focus Features president James Schamus. It was, the two frankly admitted, probably the only accolade they’d get this year, given critics’ — and audiences’ — tepid reaction to Taking Woodstock , which Lee directed and Schamus wrote. The two of...

We put Across the Universe on our Netflix list when it came out–I’m not quite sure why. When it arrived and we read over the blurb, my wife said “This is probably one you’ll want to watch on your own–unless you think I’d like it.” So I started in, using headphones as I usually would if [...]

St. Angie And Billy Goat Brad Look At Art
Dlisted (Free subscription) | 15/11/2009
St. Angie Jo and Billy Goat Brad floated down from their majestic crystal cathedral in the heavens to attend MOCA's 30th Anniversary Gala in Los Angeles last night. Maddox didn't go, because if he wants to look at art, he'll just glance into the mirror. Speaking of.... I have a valid question. Did St. Angie and Brad look at the art? Or did the art look at them? You know there's a Brangaloonie screaming...

The Divine Sarah (Version Deux)
OC (Free subscription) | 13/11/2009
Apart from A.G., the singer who thrills me endlessly and gives me immeasurable pleasure is Sarah Vaughan. She says something to me that Billie Holliday doesn't say. There is something primal—primeval—about Sarah's voice that gives an unrequited love song its devastating realism, and a bravura—the woman had an astounding three-octave range which she exploited extravagantly—that...

My fantasy band: Tori Amos

Vocals - Janis Joplin I want the band to be fronted by a woman and Janis was one of the great female blues singers. She had a voice that could handle a very powerful band.

Every guitarist that I've met sights him as a huge influence. Bass - Bootsy Collins...
