Halloween '05 Edition or Hammer Please Dont Hurt "em

Tonight I celebrate the holiday by showcasing a projection version of the Mel Brook's classic Young Frankenstein. A diverse crowd will attend theis celebration of lunacy, as it is, as always, open to the public. Mostly seniors, but some middle aged, and younger people. I hope you are enjoying this pagan holiday in a way that will also give you, some personal gratification.

This photo is my holiday offering, it is the group of Surrealists, Paul Eluard, Hans Arp, Yves Tanguay, Andre Breton, Max Ernst, Salvador Dali, Man Ray, and others. Maybe they will bring you inspiration, to go to your studio, or whatever space you have, and make things.

My Current Rotation:

Wicked Grin: John Hammond- spellbinding interpretations of some Tom Wait's material.

Prarie Wind/ Neil Young- Prarie Wind Blowin' through my head.

Firewater/ Silkworm- 50 minutes of thundering bass supporting some measured madness.

In the Wake of Poseidon/ King Crimson- Greg Lake's vocals transcend Fripp's mastery of mellotron, and guitar, an essential rediscovery from 1970.

You Cant Do That On Stage Anymore Vol. 5/ Frank Zappa- some 1968 Mothers, and an ill-fated 1982 concert in Geneva that ended in a riot.
