I Wanna Be Good

Have I mentioned I love youtube? I saw this performance a few times back in the eighties on the awesome Night Music show, which I absolutely loved, even more than youtube. I've been looking for the song for two decades and just found the video tonight. Happy Happy! It features Karen Mantler and Her Cat Arnold doing a song called "I Wanna Be Good." The band is introduced by host David Sanborn (Yay, Sanborn!) and pianist Carla Bley (whose ex-husband hangs at my store and most of us think acts like a dick). Karen Mantler is Carla's daughter and David Sanborn's son is the group's bass player. Enjoy!

The Moon Is Disgusting

A half an hour ago, I didn't know this guy existed. Thanks, William Gibson and Colin Peters for shouting about him. I watched a different vid first and asked, "What the hell is that thing?" Why, it's The Magic Pipe, of course! As a very mundane bass player, all I can say now is, "Cool!"

The World Has Lost Another Genius: Nagi Noda

Nagi Noda, the brilliant Japanese artist and director has died, apparently due to complications from surgery after a car accident last year. I don't know her exact date of birth but she was born in 1973, which put her at 34 or 35 years old. Below are some of the videos that she directed. Please enjoy them and save a little piece of your heart and mind for her to occupy. You can find more great stuff at her website:

Sugar Water

This video was my first exposure to Cibo Matto many years ago. On the way home from work today I was listening to Viva! La Woman. It's gotten better since I last listened. Anyway, I thought back to the video, which is extremely cool in its own right (It bears a second viewing to catch everything), and I thought I'd share it with both of you. Please enjoy:



(Steve tells me he can't view it. If you can't either, here's the youtube link:
