A (Re)Statement of Purpose

Dec 28, 2010, 1:16am Pretty Goes with Pretty
The New Year is always a time of optimism and ambition, as well as a shaking off of the past. That's definitely the case for me and for this blog. The content at Pretty Goes with Pretty has suffered for at least the last year, maybe more, due to a number of reasons—not least was I had a kid and I wrote a book. Funny how blogging (both writing and reading blogs) can slip right down your priority list when a little life change comes your way. Well, I still have a kid, so everything in this post [...]

Drinking Songs: Hallelujah For Beer

Mar 5, 2009, 7:55pm Setting The Woods On Fire
Drinking Songs: Hallelujah For Beer Today's entry, recorded by the generally underrated Sammi Smith in 1977, isn't very well known, but I think it's great. It's got a fun attitude, proper reverence for the subject matter (and then some), good lines ("there's times of the day when my mind is way too clear"), and even a pop-the-top sound effect at the end. Way to go Sammi! Sing it! Sammi Smith – Hallelujah For Beer ( buy album ) Today's selection is best enjoyed with whatever type of beer makes you sing praises to [...]

Acrobat Music: Something for Everyone, But Save Most of it for Me

Jan 7, 2009, 1:34pm The Daily Rind
I like a challenge, so I've tried to find one thing in the Acrobat catalogue that I don't love, and after 24 hours and 12 bags of popcorn, I've discovered it's impossible. Every album that this niche label has ever put out has singularly distinguished itself in its genre, whether it be blues, jazz, country, [...]

A travers la nuit

Dec 19, 2007, 10:21am Un violon, un jambon
A travers la nuit S'il y a bien un disque qui me manque, c'est la B.O. de Fat city de John Huston, un de mes trois films préférés de tous les temps. Il me manque d'ailleurs pour une très bonne raison : il n'existe pas. Cette BO, c'est le Help me make it through the night de mon KrisKris Tofferson, mais pas seulement. On y entend aussi la chanson en instrumental, et c'est justement cettte version-là que je veux, pour en faire la BO de ma vie de tous les jours. Pour acheter mes carottes en l'écoutant, pour aller [...]
