My Fellow Americans, Life is actually just a microscopic, deluded moment in time, so let's cut to the freakin' chase. One look at our impending election debacle can solidify my case. It has been my contention since birth, that the answer to every difficulty we encounter on this sacred yet demented Stone, can be revealed with ultimate clarity through the ultra neurotic engagements of Music, Art, Literature, Film, Poetry and a good Pastrami sandwich. Why would any sane human spend so must time ...

On New Year's morning, 1963, brilliant physicist Dr Gilbert Bogle and Mrs Margaret Chandler were found dead beside the picturesque Lane Cove River in Sydney, Australia.

Can a song about unrequited love be considered a “Sunny Song”? Absolutely, if it’s as poppy and refreshing as this cut by Cleveland one hit wonders, The Choir, previously known as The Mods. At the time of the song’s recording, the midwest was teeming with British Invasion, Carnaby St wanna-be bands who had longer hair than their peers and groovier …

One of the greatest rock and roll songwriters, Jackie De Shannon has a way of marrying a catchy pop melody with a fresh lyrical insight that is unparalleled. During that shift from Rockabilly into the British Invasion, Jackie (often with partner Sharon Sheeley), kept the pop charts humming - amassing an impressive discography for anyone - let alone…

Nov. 27, 2017 Wayne Cochran, who wrote a classic love-and-loss pop song while still in his early 20s, then morphed into an energetic rhythm-and-blues singer with a devoted following and an outrageous pompadour before finding a new purpose in a Christian ministry near Miami, died on Nov. 21 in Miramar, Fla. He was 78. His son, Christopher Cochran, s…

In my opinion, the song was better than the sit-com that spawned it. And, it had staying power, making it to the top of the pop charts. There is something transcendent being expressed here. As Thomas Wolfe said: “you can’t go home again,” Maybe not, but it’s something we all long for, and in this joyful three minute tune John Sebastian ties a ribbo…

"The Karate Kid" is an iconic film about a teen who falls in love, gets bullied and wants to show he isn't someone to be messed with.

FROM THE "WILD, WILD WEST" DEPARTMENT: Robert F.

The Reform Party, founded by former independent pres…

Not to glorify the use of narcotics, or anything, but this is the most joyous celebration of bored nihilism I’ve ever heard. Joey Ramone said he wrote the song when he was stranded in London during Christmastime, with nothing to do and nowhere to go. And, here, the boys are symbolically kicking down the doors of their hotel room and running amok fo…

I love that the new home owner portrayed in this song squares off against a threatening demon, declaring: “Ain’t no Ha’nt gonna run me off!” This is one ballsy gentleman, Mr. Jumpin’ Gene Simmons. And, fittingly Mr. Chaim Witz of Kiss fame, (another ballsy guy), took his name in tribute to this man. Morris Eugene Simmons (1937-2006) started his car…

This cut off Jeff Beck’s second solo effort was produced by the magisterial George Martin, the Beatle’s north star.

He needn’t have worried - the plangent tone and hu…

In 1948, New Orleans veteran trumpeter and singer Louis Prima stumbled into a young girl named Keely Smith.

Alan breaks down the new film "The First Omen" and how it perfectly sets up "The Omen" that ran in the 70's.

He also discusses why child actors who are good can be so scary.…

The Meaning of “Once in a Lifetime” Byrne might have used preacher cadences as a jumping-off point for the song.

The refrain of You may find yourself supports this notion. Byrne implies that a person’s lo…

Alan breaks down the good and the very bad in the new film "Civil War" and how some elements are completely implausible.

Alan praises some of the acting but bemoans the major …

Inspired by a quote attributed to the eastern mystic Meyer Baba, Bobby McFerrin created this a cappella masterpiece.

"The Iron Claw" was the second best movie of 2023 but didn't earn a single Oscar nomination. Why not? Was it because there were dark themes like suicide? Was there something against the WWE?

At the outset, let me apologize for liking this song. It was outre almost immediately after its release. At this point it is so retrograde that I think a person might be able to enjoy it once again for it’s ironic naïveté. But, I have always loved the way her voice swoops up on the name “Bobby”. It still brings chills. I was nine years old, and I w…

With its distinctive 16-notes-to-the-bar bassline and unashamedly honky sax solo (played on two saxes at once), Ian Dury and the Blockheads’ signature hit was certainly one of the more idiosyncratic No 1s of the 1970s. The same could be said of their inimitable frontman, who exemplified the post-punk era’s particular ability to allow unlikely and e…

It came roaring out of the car radio speakers like a sonic boom, powered by Dave Clark’s “Air Hammer” pulsating drum beats and Denis Payton’s beefy saxophone. (Clearly, this was inspirational to Clarence Clemons, when crafting Bruce Springsteen’s, E-Street sound.) Mike Smith, on double-tracked lead vocal and Vox organ may have looked like the leade…

Jimmy Scott / James Victor Scott (1925-2014) When Jimmy was first heard on records, the audience assumed it was a woman. He was a one of a kind jazz vocalist, a phenomenon who lived a challenging existence, trying to negotiate his intersexuality with the prejudicial attitudes and toxic stigma of the 1940s and 50s. This caused him to adopt an aggres…

Not a lot happens in “Past Lives.” And yet it is a small and beautiful film. How was tension created by Celine Song with only one kiss in which the camera pans away and it is dark.

The lifeblood during my youth was infused by the artists who plied their magical trade via the 45 rpm discs of the 60s and 70s.

Art is Art, and Business is Business, and apparently you can’t have one without the oth…

Alan again speaks with Saul Sudin and while they agree that “The Zone of Interest” was a failure Alan believes Jonathan Glazer was out to try to use a gimmick to win awards and questions why he focused on building a replica of a Nazi house rather than showing Jews-as the book by Martin Amis does. Saul questions whether or not this is correct, and t…

Did Jimmy Kimmel go too far with a joke about Robert Downey Jr? Will his jokes about former President Trump come back to haunt him?

The first time I heard this tune was on Ricky Jay’s collection of songs about cards and card players. Subsequently, I heard Steve Earle’s story about how, when he was playing some dive for 4 or 5 people, Townes Van Zandt stumbles in and starts heckling him. It’s Outlaw Country lore: Townes demands Earle play Wabash Cannonball- repeatedly. Finally, …

Alan raises hell and is mystified at how the New York Times could correctly call the film a failure, yet the movie received numerous nominations.
