Saturday Matinee – Elysian Fields, Bombskare, Steve Karla / Leo Johnson & Mike Zito
Very nice animation of Elysian Fields‘ Alms For Your Love. (Ignore the “You Can’t Watch It From This Link” garbage. Just click it.)
Bombskare did some a capella whoopin’ on Rory McLeod‘s Love Like A Rock.
Steve Karla & Leo Johnson (of SpaceHeaters) go street busking Django style.
Long intro, but song starts at about 0:2:10. Mike Zito from August 2018.
Looks like some of you are in for some global cooling this weekend. If your house seems chilly, just step outside for five minutes and come back in – it’ll warm the house up good. Hunker down, and we’ll thaw out something fun for tomorrow.

R.I.P. Jonco Stl. You were one funny dude and we’ll miss you.
Saturday Matinee Christmas – Jason D. Williams, The Petersens, and Leon Redbone w/ Ken Peplowski & Dr. John
Jason D. Williams is a madman on the ivories, and the video was posted on the Utoobage just a few days ago.
The Petersens‘ Sleigh Ride [2:31] is a fun take on one of my favorites.
“Listen to how perfect this is…
The Doctor, Leon, and the heir to Benny Goodman…”
Leon Redbone, Dr. John and Ken Peplowski make a great trio, and Leon spelled backwards is, well, you know.
Have a great pre-holiday weekend, be back here tomorrow for some last minute shopping.
Lafuente’s Bunkhouse
Julio Lafuente was a Spanish architect who worked mainly in Italy. This is a summer cabin he built with structural engineer Gaetano Rebecchini on Capocotta Beach near Rome in 1965.
Saturday Matinee – The Firebirds, Dracula’s Daughters, Mad Jack & the Hatters, and The Meteors
The Firebirds were the only British band to play the 2002 Rockabilly Festival, which marked the 50th anniversary of Sun Records and 25th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death.
Dracula’s Daughters are Emily & Elizabeth Butters (with Forrest Butler and Jim, Mitch & Elias from Boston’s Triple Thick).
Mad Jack and the Hatters are, um, interesting…
Formed in South London in 1980, The Meteors are considered the first verifiable psychobilly band (and the second band to use the term).
Halloween be upon us, so carve a squash, spook the kids, mock the mask-mongers and have fun sending the Aos Sí back to their hidey holes for another year. See you back here for tricks and treats tomorrow.
