VocĂȘ...


This time next month I will be lounging around somewhere in Brazil. I get really anxious to travel when the snow starts to pile up. Comm Ave is frosty and Christmas-lit. I want sun and sea and caipirinhas!!

Renew! Renew!


I just got the soundtrack to LOGAN'S RUN (1976) What can be said for a movie that features Farrah Fawcett-Majors and contains the following dialog: "...and then you grabbed me and the machine blew up and I ran...I RAN!!" God I love it. Why isn't there a New You on every corner? And how did they know that everyone in the USA would be living in a mall in the future? Or that we'd be putting ourselves on 'the circuit'?

Groovy... and Jerry Goldsmith's soundtrack is THE definitive 70's future freak-out.

"Identify Logan 5- this object is 'ANKH'"

Let's hope the remake doesn't totally suck.

New Cocteau Twins box set


After teasing us with a possible reunion and then dashing those hopes on the rocks like that song to the siren, Cocteau Twins release a huge box set of all their singles/EPs from 4AD and Fontana. Yum.
