Happy New Year!

pcl2
This is my last post this year. No links today. Just this photo.
It's Me, Mom and Dad.
This photo was shot in El Ahbab studio in Marrakech Februar 16, 1971.
I am 1 year and 2 months old.
A copy of this photo was sent to my Grandmom as a belated birthday present.

My dad died earlier this year. He was a cool man. He had issues, but still, he was cool. I loved him. I will think of him tonight.

And I'd also like to take the opportunity to thank all of you reading PCL LinkDump, You are great!

Happy New Year to all of you!

Aganju

Nick over at Jazz and Conversation writes about Bebel Gilberto's latest CD "I first dismissed this CD as a slick attempt to take advantage of the reputation and legacy of her parents. ... That said, I admit the CD has grown on me upon multiple listenings. And there are several tracks that are flat-out awesome! Aganju is my favorite. ..."
I couldn't agree more. Aganju is a beautiful, floating creation with lots of air with a very nice (sort of) accelerating hypnotique groove.
When Bebel's songs are good they are very good.
Have a listen yourself over at Nick's place.

So...

After all free music I've linked you to there must be something left in your pocket. Use this thread over at flickr for websites for donations to find a very decent way to do some good with those pennies/dollars/marks/euros/kronor/pounds or whatever you've got to spare. You'd just buy some sleazy music for them anyway... Do it.

John Lennon's still writing songs. And they suck!

Our Spiritual Teachings Page: "Speaker Linda J. Polley has been channeling new songs written by the Spirit of John Lennon, formerly of The Beatles, from The Afterlife, since 9/9/99. Several of the lyrics, some with audio, have been posted on line, in Voices From Spirit Magazine, and elsewhere, over the years."

And it continues...

"Below is an audio demo of internationally known psychic Speaker Linda Polley singing and playing John Lennon's new song she channeled from The Afterlife in support of President Bush's war with Iraq. If you know somebody in the military that has a band tell them about it. They can call Linda and get the music. John would love to hear the G.I.s singing this! See the lyrics at the bottom of the page. See the main page of this website for contact information"

Obviously she is a nutcase. Or at least a very stupid server of Bush God. And singing is not one of her major skills either. But she is out of her mind and the site is dead fun! (or maybe it's a hoax - at least I hope so!) (via Sound-scavengers)

Ps. By the way... If you ever want to help me in my fight against the criminals of crooked, low and bad (not as in "The Matrix soundrack is soo Bad!") culture please do so by sending me links to cool stuff you think should be on here.

The Royal Hawaiian Guitars with the Merry Melody Singers is being shared to our enjoyment by Manfo at Ta Hu Wa Hu Wai.
Manfo sais this about the music (ripped from a tape):
"I got this great tape a few weeks ago by a local thrift store, but I could find very little information about it--I'm a first-timer after all ;-) The original LP was first issued on Mercury label (then on Philips, maybe someday in the Sixties), and you can find it listed in the Hawaiian music albums list on the Space Age Pop Music Pages.
The man on the steel guitar is the famous country player
Jerry Byrd, who has been recording a bunch of Hawaiian albums since the early Fifties. No liner notes on my tape, sorry :-( "


It's working for me. Great music! :-)

Roger Shimomura - Stereotypes and Admonitions

This series illustrates incidents of racial insensitivity I have experienced during my life. Accompanying each painting is a written description of the incident that inspired the piece. Also included in this series are events that have affected the Asian American community on a regional and national basis over the past 60 years — essentially my lifetime. - Roger Shimomura.
Exhibition at Greg Kucera Gallery
pcl2
Roger Shimomura: " FOX network recently rescinded its decision to air The Charlie Chan Mystery Tour due to protests from the Asian American community. The old Charlie Chan movies featured ethnic stereotypes and “yellow-faced” white actors, considered offensive and to many Asian Americans. The Organization of Chinese Americans stated, “Charlie Chan is a painful reminder of Hollywood’s racist refusal to hire minorities to play roles that were designed for them, and a further reminder of the miscegenation laws that prevented interracial interaction even on screen.” " (via Cipango)

Happy Holidays greetings from Pastor McPurvis

Disturbing Santa's is the Album Cover Theme of the Week. Naturally.

Up this week in Pastor McPurvis' Weekly mp3 Talent Show: Christmas Concert by the children in the 1978 Inpatient Music Therapy Program
at the University of Michigan Children's Psychiatric Hospital!

Pastor tells us: "Up for the next two weeks is an album that is one of Pastor McPurvis’ favorites. I came across this album two years ago and instently fell in love with it. The recording is a Christmas concert performed by the children in the Inpatient Music Therapy Program at the University of Michigan’s Children’s Psychiatric Hospital in 1978. The concert has a variety of groups and soloists performing with some serious heartfelt energy and youthful exuberance. If nothing else, you really have to check out the jazz band performances, the solo pieces, and the crashing sing-a-long that makes up the last track. There is also a very touching speech given by one of the adults in charge thanking the performers and singling out two young men who had made great progress in the program. The Pastor is going on a well earned vacation so I’ll be leaving this up for two weeks. Have a great Holiday season, thanks to all of you who visit my Talent Show, and as always, Enjoy!"
Sounds weird enough for me...

Happy Holidays to the McPurvis family and enjoy your vacation!

"The Danceland Ballroom was built in Cedar Rapids, Iowa in 1927. After a change in ownership in 1957, they began booking rock and roll acts. They continued until the ballroom was torn down in 1969.
The ballroom was located on the second story. At the top of the stairs, patrons were greeted by a beautiful hand-painted poster advertising the next upcoming concert.
These unique 28" x 44" cardboard concert posters were hand-painted by well-known graphic artist, Andy Jennings. His posters often included an original photo of the artist and sometimes even original (single) records or picture sleeves."
