What did you type?!?

Oh, this cover!

one of J Mascis crowning achievements

just that it wasn't your ears, mr. malcontent. the beauty of mistakes on the air is you just keep cruising and often no ones knows! or if they do, they're good natured...;)

yes, tom!

I knew I should've added... 😆 or 👻 Because I was being ridiculous, as if I wasn't reading or paying attention to what you wrote about not listening to yourself! HaHa! 🤣😇

THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN 💚💜

crazy version, huh?

Every cover just gets better and better!!

Thx!!!!

Good on ya, DJ Esoterica!!

This pandemic has forced Asbury Park’s Showroom Cinema out of business. That’s where I’d see the Short Film nominees every Oscar year. They used to be compiled on home video that I’d borrow from the library. Now I suppose I’d have to stream them for a price. As for the aforementioned Birkin movie: http://www.tgv-movie.com/

for sure, rocking it this afternoon, all great picks

Thx, Tom and Mr. Malcontent! Also, David; I will def explore. Thank You!

Speaking of Warren Beatty, I need to see his 1966 movie “Kaleidoscope”. Jane Birkin plays a character in it named “Exquisite Thing”.

you and i both, David! haven't seen it...

sounds trippy

the film i mean

@DavidShortell, I'm hopeful that businesses that closed as a result of the pandemic can return and be even more successful in the future! Nothing is forever. Thanks for sharing and caring about films!

I killed the chat with my Serious and Thankful NONSENSE.

not at all!

appreciated!

Youuu arrhhhh!!

DJ Esoterica, many thanks for another great show! Kind regards to you!

Speaking of the Beatles, George Harrison’s score for the 1968 movie “Wonderwall” was released as an LP on Apple--and can probably be considered the first solo album by any of those guys. Jane Birkin plays a character in the movie named “Penny Lane”.

aw thanks! man, zz top back in the day, great musicians, no?

yes! that was nice!

wow, david! a wealth of knowledge. I'll have to archive this convo so to not forget all of this!:) thanks!!

Streaming from the Claremont area of California!

I went to scripps! i know it well!!

Nifty!

Another great show, have an awesome week !
