Three excellent, one terrible

Blues singer John Hammond sitting on a motorcycle on the waterfront in Jersey City, with the New York skyline behind him.

I just heard that blues singer/guitarist John Hammond (son of the famous producer) died last week.

I don't know the details, but apparently he died in Jersey City. Coincidentally, where this 1964 album cover photo was taken.

Federico Fellini, 1955

Even lesser Fellini is still pretty damn good. Giulietta Masina is wonderful, as always.

I recently heard about this one:

How I arrived on Bluesky

Yeah, me too. I forgot how grim it is.

I love this song. Btw, do you know Al Stewart did a song about a femboy in 1967? It's called "Pretty Golden Hair" from his first album, Bedsitter Images.

A detail from a panel from a 1990 Peanuts comic strip showing Snoopy lying under a tree. He is thinking, “I like a book where there’s only one character and nothing happens to him.”

Good morning, friends!

The script was terrible. Very heavy-handed.
