  1. Taxi Driver is a great soundtrack. The central tenor interlude is unforgettable, but the whole thing is brilliant. I often wonder why it hasn't been covered by other players.
  2. I haven't read that but I will. Cheers.
  3. Last episode. A bit overlong but a good western with film like production. I've enjoyed it.
  4. I Called Him Morgan - Kasper Collin (2016) A beautiful documentary, takes you right back to the time and place with a skillful mix of archival material and interviews. A labour of love.      
  5. Indeed. Reminds me of my pal, Glyn, who was giving a class at Tokodai -Tokyo Institute Of Technology, the premier university in it's field. For some reason the mention of Elvis was met with multiple blank stares. Sensing a communication problem, he asked for a show of hands for who knew or didn't know The King. Almost nobody had. Or the time I asked some high schoolers to name three countries in Africa. The consensus was ' What do you mean? Africa is a country'.
  6. Like this. Second play recently.
  7. Score: A Film Music Documentary - Matt Schrader (2017) Doesn't dig very deep, and commits the grave sin of omitting Nino Rota, but entertaining and enjoyable. The Post - Stephen Spielberg (2017) Solid, meat & potatoes take on the publishing of The Pentagon Papers, Smooth and competent prequel to the superior All The President's Men. Just as an aside, I wonder how many people under 40 have the bare minimum historical knowledge to make this meaningful.
  8. It's funny that when the Norman Whitfield albums first appeared I wasn't all that impressed. Maybe I was just emotionally hanging on to the '60's. Now I think they are amazing, especially Cloud Nine and Psychedelic Shack. 1990 is also great.
  9. No, I don't think you are. It is noticeably faster for me. Previously when I hit the submit reply button, there would be a delay of anything up to a minute. Now the message is posted almost instantly.
  10. I've been unable to connect to the board four times today. Does anyone know why?
