Monday Matinee #8 – Two Lane Blacktop (1971)

Monday Matinee #8 – Two Lane Blacktop (1971) I clearly remember going to see Two Lane Blacktop in 1971 and being completely enamored with the film.  It featured two of my favorite musicians, James Taylor and Dennis Wilson,  both of whom were quite laconic in the movie.   I myself was a man of few words back then which you might find hard to read if you are frequent reader of this blog.  It also didn't hurt that the movie was all about fast cars.....back in the late 1960s early 1970s I was absolutely muscle car crazy.  For those of you that aren't from the US, I don't [...]

Farewell My Friend - Dennis Wilson
This year I'm getting ahead of Valentine's Day and sending one out to the brokenhearted. Well, it's almost that dreadful time of year again. Like we don't already feel bad enough the rest of the time, Valentine's Day just seems like cruel punishment for the chronically lonely. You can't even go out [...]

James Brown - I Feel Good (From "Legends of Rock 'n' Roll" DVD)
Filed under: News , Exclusive , Music Appreciation Getty | Getty There are a number of ways musicians can also become great showmen. People like Madonna use costume changes, elaborate stages and a legion of dancers, a band like Gwar sprays fake blood and goo across the audience while fighting animatronic monster things, and Bruce Springsteen does it by playing actual songs [...]

Favorite Holiday Songs #s 8 and 9

The Beach Boys - Morning Christmas
Today we have two great Holiday vocal performances.  First up is a beautiful Beach Boys song called Morning Christmas.  From what I have been able to determine, this song was pretty mostly a solo effort by Dennis Wilson, the most overlooked of the three Wilson brothers that were the foundation for the Beach Boys.  Let's listen....... Next up is On This Christmas Morning, a beautiful song as performed by the incredible Moody Blues.  I think you will like it! My special gift to you today is Dennis Wilson's [...]

Meet The Wilsons

Meet The Wilsons Hurray once more for the mighty Tompkins Square label, as the wise people in charge there just re-released Bill Wilson's fine fine Ever Changing Minstrel album, originally recorded in 1973 with the same bunch of pickers you hear on Dylan's Blonde On Blonde . In honour of that, here's a ten pack of boss tunes by guys called Wilson. Brian was off somewhere alas, but brother Dennis showed up instead. Better get ready!

A forthcoming film focusing on the last six years of Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson's life will include Oscar-nominated actress Vera Farmiga in the role of his love interest, Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie. Their “passionate and tumultuous” six-year relationship, before Wilson’s passing in 1983, promises to be one of the more interesting moments in the movie, called The Drummer. Producers [...]

BEACH BOYS – THE SMILE SESSIONS BOX SET

In 1966, in the wake of the critical acclaim from the masterpiece Pet Sounds , and coasting on the fame and fortune he’d earned for single-handedly competing with the entire nation of England for two whole years, Brian Wilson boasted to the press that the next Beach Boys album would be better still, grandiose beyond reckoning, as evolved from Pet Sounds as Pet Sounds had been from its predecessor, the goofy Beach Boys Party! album. Finally on November 1, 2011, we’ll be getting the official, Capitol Records, Mike-and-Al-sanctioned confirmation that he [...]

Bloggy Goodness: Rush To Release Sectors Box Set

Bloggy Goodness: Rush To Release Sectors Box Set It's quite amazing to think that seminal prog-rock act  Rush  has sold over 40 million records worldwide, yet they continue to get shown the cold shoulder by the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame selection committee. The Canadian-based power trio , who recently went indie moving from Atlantic to Roadrunner Records, have announced that they will release three separate six-disc box sets, that focus on the Mercury Records years, which ran from their 1974 self-titled debut  through 19882s Show of Hands , that they've dubbed Sector. Each set, which all will hit stores on November [...]

His life is a sad tale and it's one that [...]

We at MOR like oxygen, green leaves and clean water as much as the next guy so we've put together a playlist of songs appropriate for this special day.
