Willie just uploaded his entire 1976 Austin City Limits episode to YouTube. He's supposed to be getting gifts today, not giving them.

Happy Birthday Willie!
Looks like "No Direction Home" is back on Netflix. Terrific Dylan doc that Scorsese did back in the mid-2000's. But it also serves as a really good overview of American folk music forms from the 50s & 60s. It is long (3.5 hours) & originally aired in 2 parts on PBS.
At least I'm finally getting through some of the books I've had stacked on my nightstand for the past few years. Started on the Alex Chilton biography yesterday.
Whitney Rose's new record, "We Still Go To Rodeos", is out today, and it is a really good listen.
Looks like Bandcamp is waiving its fee again on 5/1. So, if you make any purchases that day, all proceeds go to the artists. Bandcamp waiving their cut of sales again on May 1
Austin City Limits is re-broadcasting John Prine's final ACL performance from 2018 later this evening. Check your local PBS listings for airtimes if you need something to watch later.
Still warming up to parts of "Fetch The Bolt Cutters", but my ears definitely perk up every time 'Heavy Balloon' comes on.
Really glad I saw all of those live shows last year.
Never forget:
In full on Band mode after reading "Testimony", and watching "Once Were Brothers".
Finally watched "Parasite" last night. It wasn't at all what I was expecting, but I absolutely loved it.
"The Tree of Forgiveness" is going to hit even harder now. And it already packed quite the punch.
Starting a regular (daily?) series of playlists that I'll be posting in the Mixtape Madness thread. I usually spend forever compiling playlists, but these will be capped at 12 songs each, and will be curated pretty quickly. Whatever bubbles to the top of my mind first. Just something to help pass the time.
Made a Frank Black solo/Frank Black & The Catholics favorites playlist earlier today. I've determined that those solo & Catholics records were perfectly built for favorites comps/playlists. Most of those albums, particularly the Catholics records, are just alright, but each has 3-4 songs that are top notch.
Last night I listened to Dylan's "Great White Wonder" while reorganizing my vinyl collection. And, even if just for a few hours, all was right with the world.
It only took me 3 hours to apply for unemployment here in Texas. No snark at all, I feel pretty lucky. There are people that have literally been trying to get it done for a week.
Pray for John Prine. Like, even if you don’t believe in praying...pray for John Prine.
I still hate the cover art for LCD Soundsystem's "american dream".
