Another episode from this Terry Jones Series. Link in comments.

Terry Jones - Medieval Lives - 2004

It also happens that Terry Jones wrote history books and presented numerous television documentaries. Medieval Lives was one such and seems intended for a younger audience. Link in comments.

Ripping Yarns - Terry Jones - Michael Palin

Terry Jones and Michael Palin wrote and performed in this series. Here is the very enjoyable first episode. Link in comments.

Americathon - 1979 - Technicolor

PROCTOR and BERGMAN wrote the play that became this film. Peter Reigert, Harvey Korman, Fred Williard, and John Ritter star, with cameos by Elvis Costello, Tommy Lasorda, and lots more. Link in comments.

Laika Sex Machine - 2001

Laika And The Cosmonauts played Surf Rock with a Finnish influence. They also took TV and movie themes and gave them the same organ-heavy treatment. Included also is a fun interview for NPR from 2004. The fixed link is in the comments.

Red Elvises - Grooving To The Moscow Beat

1996. The band had already been in the business awhile when they recorded this, their first English language album and perhaps their best work. A few years later their gun-slinger guitarist split and so it went. Link in comments.

Spinal Tap - Glastonbury 2009

A brief interview and then a live set for an audience of 140,000. Link in comments.

Sting - Bring On The Night - 1985

STING decided to assemble a new band and make a film about himself and it. Siskel and Ebert found the result cringeworthy and so can you. Special moments include STING pretending to read an EKG, and STING's minion-in-chief getting indignant about the new band feeling underpaid. Link in comments.

Woodstock - 1970

This happened a half-century ago. I don't believe it. Link in comments.

The Bride Of Firesign - 2001

Here is Firesign Theatre at their most tasteless and self-referential. Adults only. Link in comments.

Single Gun Theory - Fall - 1994

Four remixes of the tune FALL, intended for the club scene. FALL was probably their best tune. This completes SGT. Link in comments.

Single Gun Theory - Exorcise This Wasteland

1987. The first album by SGT, and not the most-praised. SGT has been categorized as Ambient, Dream-Pop, Electronica, Progressive Electronic, Techno-Industrial, and so on. You might want to skip this one. Link in comments.

Single Gun Theory - Flow River Of My Soul

There is more very atmospheric listening in this follow-up to LIKE STARS IN MY HANDS. Link in comments.

The Red Elvises - I Wanna See You Bellydance

This 1998 lineup was certainly looking for airplay. Only one of the original artists - Igor - remains in the group today. Link in comments. Listen to the hit single *Here*.

The Art Of Skiing - 1941

'Tis the season for goofy outdoor sports. Link in comments.

Happy Holidays!

The Magical Drummer Boy Fairy Decoration - and myself - would like to be the first to wish you and yours the happiest of all possible holiday seasons, without any weirdness or creepyness in it whatsoever.
Love, Edward

Stan Freberg Presents The United States Of America Volume 1

Volume 1 happened in 1961. Volume 2 was planned for 1976 but postponed until 1996. Wikipedia has the details. Link in comments.

Dangerous Days - Making Blade Runner - 2007

This full-length version of the documentary provides 210 minutes of delicious kibble for Blade Runner fans like ourselves. Don't be ashamed. Link in comments.

Siouxsie And The Banshees - Twice Upon A Time

Our tour of spooky female vocalists continues. This Post-Glam band was described as Punk, and Post-Punk, and Goth. Link in comments.
