  1. One of my favourite science fiction movies.
  2. Willie the Weeper Bob Cryer Howlin' Wolf
  3. A fine little book. Have just finished Zachary Leader's fascinating biography of Saul Bellow. Pleased to have got for £5 from an Amazon trader an apparently new hardback as shown, marked $40. A valued addition to the bookshelf.
  4. Brit Woodman Little Englanders Brexiteers
  5. Lazy Ade Monsborough Sleepy Stein Mr Kipper
  6. Could just see Ronnie running one of those.
  7. The Dumb Waiter Lazy Susan
  8. And to you MG and all members. P.S. Isn't that a tune by Donald Byrd?
  9. A second look at this French movie. Explores relationship between elderly man and young woman with supernatural elements. Very well done.
  10. First went in there on a memorable early trip to London at the age of 17. Can date it precisely, as the papers were full of "Russians Put Dog into Space" headlines - 4th October 1957. Must have been during my half-term holiday from school!
  11. How well I remember that! That staircase!
  12. "Embraceable You" from this. Bird's classic solo re-heard.
  13. J Fred Muggs Muggins Idiots First
  14. Muhal Richard Abrams Aphrodite Ramsbottom A C Ewing
  15. Regrettably, I am as distant from Paterson as you are - about 4,000 miles - but in the opposite direction. Perhaps an east coast board member could make the pilgrimage for us. Google Images suggests the place is just as depicted in the movie.
  16. T S Eliot T S Monk Monk Montgomery
  17. Was very taken by this. A late addition to my films-of-the-year list.
  18. Cy Touff Cosy Molars Cosy Fanni Tutti and Genesis P-Orridge
  19. Yes, the music was nice in that bar. I must visit it.
  20. I read The Castle in the early 1960s. Perhaps it's time to return. I read an interesting article by Julian Barnes in the Guardian a few weeks ago on returning to books after many decades.
  21. Harvey Milk Cream Hairy McLary from Donaldson's Dairy
  22. Nellie Dean Eskimo Nell Clementine
  23. The Son of Joseph Just didn't go for this at all. Stilted, non-naturalistic style probably influenced by the New Wave, plus Biblical allegory.
  24. Ernie Wilkins Quincy Jones Neil Hefti
