He knows that life is limited, but he doesn't want anyone else enjoying it without him. He's probably planning to take us all with him.

And with eligibility for the free jabs ever more restricted, (over 75s & immunocompromised only now) sadly things don't look like they're going to get better.

Great movie. And some of *the best* blues and soul artists assembled in one place. Ever. Just amazing. Incredible. Adjectives. Add some. 🥰

The Blues Brothers

Jake Blues and his brother Elwood have just days to reunite their old R&B band and save the Catholic home where they were raised, outrunning the police as they tear through Chicago.

Another great show today, Cerys, thank you! The Bob Dylan bootlegs are going down a treat - Ode to Billie Jo can never be played enough! ☺️

Really good to highlight needs of ppl with visual difficulties. My dad spent the last decades of his life with zero vision. More awareness is truly welcome.

So much for Tice's claim to have never met Nathan Gill.

I know we're not supposed to talk about Woody Allen, but ANNIE HALL is one of the supreme American movies & Diane Keaton's wild charisma is 90% of the reason why. And btw her performance of "Seems Like Old Times" is pure magic—up there with the greatest musical scenes in cinema, zero doubt

That little clip is the perfect goodbye.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

OMG!

Why is it that the older you get, the more shocking that deaths of famous and admired ppl are? Maybe just me, but I increasingly struggle to fathom that ppl have departed and will never grace us again with their art. It's so sad.

Plantasia. Some lovely early electronic music (for plants!) by Mort Garson.

The first full electronic album I ever heard (& bought & still love) was Snowflakes Are Dancing by Tomita. Electronic Debussy, beautifully done. Thank you, Kenny Everett for the intro!

The arts and music are so essential to an integrated, peaceful, sound society. They really do make life worth living.

"Music has charms to soothe a savage breast".
