I told him I just wanted to read about the commotion in Rome yesterday. "I was in Rome in 2018 - I saw The Pope waving from his window.

and thanks, WFMU for the many Pere Ubu / David Thomas death dedications.

I never had any of their initial vinyl releases (hearing a track or two at a friend's house isn't conducive to really knowing a band. Lucked into a couple of box set comps a dozen years ago but 10 CDs was so much I didn't know where to start so I didn't.

So now I've started, will know by next week if it continues or I've finished.

Yes, that is the Pere Ubu box set I was given. Nearly all the early releases jammed into 3 CDs with no clues as to which releases they came from. I guess if you know, you know, and if you don't [i.e. me] there is no guidance except parsing via Discogs or similar [arghh]. They do provide detail on the Ubu related Cleveland recordings.

So I guess it continues.

↳ Song: "Stop It" by "Pylon"
Saw Pylon at the Peppermint Lounge (I think like 1982 so who can remember). They were slated for a 10pm show but didnt get there till 2am.

Ahhh... a tale as old as time itself. I imagine they were worth the wait?

So weird that I got this randomly stuck in my head today. I haven't even thought about this record in a zillion years. It's a good one.

Meant to ask: DOES ANYONE RECOGNIZE THE CAT AT THE TOP OF THE PLAYLIST PAGE. (As in, what movie she stars in.)

She looks likes a shaggier version of one of my cats. But assuming there are no guesses, it's the (momma) cat from Maya Deren's "The Private Life of a Cat" which is a wonderful experimental film from 1944. 22 minutes well spent: youtu.be...

IIRC, it's silent, so you can even watch it while the show finishes up!

Started watching. Reminded me of when our dog had puppies. Poor dog. She was so scared. When my mom got up to read the puppy book the dog stood up in panic and out dropped the first puppy. We had to open up the amniotic sacs for the first two before they suffocated, then she caught on. I was 9 and completely grossed out.

My wife and I have watched the movie many times. We do voiceovers for the cats, which is fairly hilarious / inappropriate.
