Shannon and I enjoyed a three-part interview with Freddie Rodriguez of REALPOPOLIO, one of the best music blogs we’ve seen. It’s about time I included the link; my apologies to Freddie for taking so LONG(!), and hopefully you’ll all enjoy realpopolio as a good source for music news, interviews and fun!!

The Grammy Museum in Los Angeles hosted the West Coast premiere of “Reel to Reel: The Greatest Ears In Town”, a documentary following Arif Mardin’s illustrious life and career.

Though he was largely unknown to folks outside the music community, his contributions helped form the bedrock of pop culture in the 60’s, and into the 00’s. Odds are that sometime today, you’ll tap your toe to a song Arif nurtured to fruition!!

Find out for yourself, see the documentary. Probably available mid-Summer’10.

(Shannon interjects: LOVED the Pink performance…how does she sing upside down and spinning w/o all the usual mortal consequences??!!) (Geo: well, exactly my point- me thinks she sang it prior to her ascent, that little minx!)

BUT THAT’S ALL JUST A LOAD a’CRAP!!!
Truth be known, we use the tools available to be creators, and it has been this way with TV since at least the 1950s-60s with the advent of musical variety shows. I found a great website that explains a bit about the history of television and entertainment programming.

Museum Of Broadcast Communications

Here’s an excerpt:

“Video deejay” programming provided another economical means of filling airtime…by the end of 1950 video deejays were firmly established in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles as well as secondary markets like San Francisco, Miami, Louisville, Philadelphia, Detroit and Cleveland (where pioneering rock and roll deejay Alan Freed held forth late at night on WXEZ-TV). Video deejay programs combined LIP-SYNCH performances, dancers, games, sketches, stunts and film shorts.

So our progression to here, began back there! Ain’t it always so…Burma Shave.

Opinions flying in all directions. Predictions on health, and wealth, and catastrophe…
Who are we?

Leaving one decade
Standing before another,
We all saw and felt something
From a quadrillion vistas
Through a zillion pairs of eyes
Inside a myriad of hearts and minds
As it’s always been

Can there be such a thing as
one mind?
It’s the real celebration, our diversity-
And ability to adapt and to listen.

To an extraordinary life-Burma Shave!
George
