A clever concept is nothing more than an idea, and if it’s practical, it may have many applications. Of course, Mr. Concept doesn’t care about any of that, but go talk to Miss Application and you’ll get an entirely different story.

Saturday Matinee – Miles, George, Michael, Frank & Janis
[Updated post: I deleted my unnecessary political rant. I decided that it doesn’t belong on this blog, and, aside from letting me vent, all it does is tick people off. Lo siento mucho. –Bunk]
Here’s a dose of awesome:
Miles Davis was always awesome, especially in his later funk years. Didja catch the background jam? It obviously came from here:
George Clinton’s Parliament cranked it, although Clinton’s Funkadelic “Maggot Brain” was my favorite. Here’s an alternate version:

Sunday Matinee – All Hallow’s Eve: Tom Waits, Laundromat, Ella Fitzgerald, Freddie King
Tom Waits’ “Underground” is perfect for Halloween. Just like this one:
There’s a new tenant who moved into the suite next door to my office. None of us have seen anyone come or go, but they installed black opaque film on the windows. I hear a lot of drilling, odd thumps, walking around on the roof, and occasionally the sound of running water… true.
This guy’s got some spooky short vids. Here’s Fewdio’s “Laundromat.” [via]
Let’s lighten it up a bit with some Classic EllaScat.
Freddy King’s “Goin’ Down.”
Have a great Halloween, folks, and we’ll see you back here tomorrow.
