Cool film/art/music/performance people.
Lately I’ve been listening to the Groins, Weird War, Betty Davis, the Kinks, Bad Brains, Howlin’ Wolf, Ventures, T. Rex, Thelonious Monk, Jimi Hendrix, Cal Tjader Quintet, Devo, the Spits, Turbonegro, Buzzcocks, Bell Rays, Electric Prunes, Curtis Mayfield, Kraftwerk, Booker T. & the M.G.s, Muddy Waters, the Clash, Dave Brubeck, James Gang, the Ramones, PIL, Miles Davis… the list goes on…
A small sample would be Faster Pussycat Kill! Kill!, Demon Seed, Night of the Hunter, Dr. Stranglove, Blade Runner, um... Film Noir, French New Wave, Fellini, Hitchcock, Kubrick, and romantic comedies from the 1930's and 40's.
