Hello music lovers!
This video just dropped yesterday:
I first heard Bat For Lashes a few years ago, as her work was featured on an otherwise pretty mediocre film adapted from an equally mediocre young adult novel, How We Live Now. This newly-released video is a teaser for what hopefully will be a solid album scheduled to drop in a couple months.
It is interesting how some of today’s contemporary indie pop is drawing some heavy inspiration from the 1980s. Many of these artists probably grew up listening to whatever tapes or CDs their parents were playing at the time.
Okay, like last week, the next few weeks involve planes, trains, and automobiles in one way or another. I will be relieved when the travel schedule slows down a bit around mid-July. Until then, I will be trying to set posts up in advance whenever possible and commenting when I am able.
Hopefully all is well among you all in the frog pond.
Safe travels, DD.
Thanks!
I watched the first four episodes of Deadwood last night. I hadn’t seen them since they aired. I was stunned at how good they were, and my recollection of them could scarcely have been higher.
I have not watched this show, as it dropped the year my son was born and my tv viewing habits changed somewhat. About to binge, before I watch the movie.
You have a real treat awaiting you.
Safe travels.
Given the circumstances, we should have a little more Dr. John up in here, and could the bartender whip up a sazerac plz?
Yay, a request! One sazarac coming right up!

The jukebox is infinite and extremely eclectic, so of course Dr. John is always a welcome addition to the rotation. And thanks. Got some driving ahead of me fairly shortly.
And of course,
I do have the Foto Flog scheduled. It will appear at midnight. Had some fun on a sunset cruise around the Tampa Bay and downtown Tampa. I’ll get the next midweek cafe/lounge and foto flog scheduled when I have a sec next week.
