The Tuesday Song of the Week

A gazillion years ago I saw Boz Scaggs at the Tower Theater.

A great concert, except that the band was waayyy too loud, and eventually Boz couldn't out-sing them, and his voice was getting all tattered trying.  He pulled the plug on the concert at less than the halfway point.  Big disappointment.  

Anyway...

'Miss Sun' - Boz Scaggs

Tickets, please

Rainman
i forget who I saw this with.

Napoleonic military history, to be specific.

Even more specifically, Napoleonic era military band.

I quote from this song ALL.  THE.  TIME.


'Every Kinda People' - Robert Palmer

As always, we have some really neato novelty prints, such as...







As always...


Know this: The watermark is NOT on the actual fabric (which I'm most of you already know).  It's only there to protect my followers from flying monkeys. Which most of you already know.

Know also: 

All of the above available in three kinds of cotton, two kinds of polyester, and two kinds of linen.

All of the above are Made in USA.

All of the above are rare and awesome and epic.

Tuesday Song of the Week

One of the standards of my one-person in-car concerts:

'Train in Vain' - The Clash

All the time spent singing in my car has had a sorta kinda odd payoff: I've been appointed my church's cantor.  

I didn't even know churches HAD cantors.  

Tickets, please

A ticket from Pascali's Island, which is a FANTASTIC movie, but which seems to have fallen off of society's collective radar.  

Stars the very very great Ben Kingsley and Helen Mirren (I'm gonna be her when I grow up), plus Charles Dance back when he was hot and hunky, long before he became Britain's go-to guy for cranky supercilious authority figures.
