Imaginary soundtrack for a Wes Anderson movie.

Imaginary soundtrack for a Wes Anderson movie. Photo still: Hotel Chevalier Wes Anderson's long withstanding obsession with mellow, baroque pop and british invasion bands is fascinating to me. I keep uncovering my new, old favorite song every time I see one of his movies. I even have a playlist dedicated to his films, filled with songs and artists I discovered thanks to him and a few more songs that I think would fit in his next hypothetical movie. I've no idea what his next movie will be about but I've been thinking that his mostly muted, awkward characters would develop grandly in [...]

Getting There: Motorcycle Mama

Getting There: Motorcycle Mama Sailcat: Motorcycle Mama [purchase] For my money, a motorcycle anthem should roar like Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild"-- unmuffled, dirty and heavy. And yet, in 1972, from the Shoals of Alabama, came Sailcat ...strumming acoustic guitars like the Lovin' Spoonful and singing like a pair of frat brothers about sleeping on the grass and living peacefully with squares. The song hit #12 on the Billboard Charts. (Even the concept album about a drifting biker went Top 40). [...]

Cover Me

Cover Me These are the times that try men's souls and cause them to sweat in places I wouldn't have thought possible. It's freakin' hot and I swear that sweat was beading inside my ears the other day. Our treehouse sanctuary - most of the second floor of an old house - is a delightful place in the spring and autumn with the many windows open and gentle breezes wafting through the dwelling. Summer can be a survival test. (especially a summer as oppressive as this one - technically not even here, yet - [...]
