JD Emmanuel recording Wizards in 1982, which was just reissued by Bread and Animals.
His synth list:
“Thanks for your interests in our unique underground properties. Built at a cost of millions, these heavily reinforced historic structures were designed to withstand nuclear attack. They bring new meaning to the word “shelter”. Centuries from now they will remain.”
These heavily reinforced underground historic structures are decommissioned US missile sites, available now from missilebases.com.
Too bad Ry’s sick of the east coast, this would be a perfect PH:

Someone put together a collection of Neil live and rehearsal tracks that are primarily just banjo and voice, simply titled “Banjo Songs”. This track apparently came from the Bernstein Tapes, recorded sometime during 1976.
Interesting interview with Joe Carnahan about the upcoming White Jazz adaptation. Efforts to make it have died out at least twice, but this one is supposed to start filming in a couple of months.
Okay, here’s one thing that’s been kind of stuck in my head. Clooney played a spree-killer in From Dusk Till Dawn, and he was the nicest spree-killer of all time. In Out of Sight, he was the nicest bank robber ever. How is this guy going to hurl Sanderline Johnson out of a window?
Yeah, listen. Clooney wants… So there are scenes that are kind of unbelievably grotesque and unfathomable and despicable and I think George’s willingness to go there… you make a very good point, a very salient point. I don’t think there’s anything nice about Klein. You’re right, the spree-killer in From Dusk Till Dawn, George never has a moment like with Sanderline Johnson where he just kills an innocent guy. I think that, in and of itself, will set the pace and the tempo for what’s to follow, and listen, George wants that. He’s made that very clear to me: “I have no other desire than to play what’s in that script.” And what’s in that script is a pretty despicable guy at times, and pretty nefarious and nasty and selfish.
I’m curious how this movie is going to work, as the novel is brutal and slips in and out of stream of consciousness. In addition it sounds like certain characters have been changed, according to Carnahan:
Also, since Regency has prevented us from using the Exley character, my brother and I were forced to basically construct a doppelganger, giving him all of Exley’s traits and speech patterns. We’re hoping it works. On paper. It’s fantastic.
Yeah, I’m wondering how this is going to work out as well. So much of the appeal of the book was the style in which it was written.
wish i had a cool gerund in front of my name.
Did you guys see Smokin’ Aces?
No, but I watched Narc a couple of months ago.
