yeah I’m down. let me know when. after this 90’s list is finalized I’m diving deeper into 70’s stuff. That music channel I shared with you just did a ranking video of their discography and I’d never heard of them outside of that one Bowie story.

i already have the first two but could give them some more attention

they say they sound like dylan fronting the stones and they arent wrong. especially the piano/organ combo on some of the songs.

mm maybe i guess but needs some glam aspect in there

i only heard 1 album anyway though

I haven’t heard much but what I have sounded a bit more like the kinks

Mad Shadows is pretty good

And yeah there's some Chuck riffs via glam

which?

regarding that bowie story... this ended up being the best version :datass: maybe just cause i grew up with this flick

anthology of american folk music

you just listen? ill check it out tomorrow

im only 1/3 of the way through

Have you seen O Brother Where Art Thou?

nope

Coen brothers' classic comedy that takes you through that era. Would be a good watch with pops.

I wasn’t gonna show up regardless
Busy tonight

Just tracks here and there on that Bowie produced album.

I love watching things where you know the person writing it was insane

From the 70’s album recs I got on here and on twitter I’m gonna be eating for a while.

A lot of these so called method actors seem to be confused about what it is to act. They don't have to actually be what they're portraying in the film or play, only pretend to be. That also just so happens to be Sir Ian McKellen's secret to why he acts so well. He pretends to be the person he's portraying.

You're confused? Well, case in point, Lord of the Rings. Peter Jackson came from New Zealand and said to Sir Ian, I want you to be Gandalf the Wizard. Sir Ian said, you are aware that I am not really a wizard. Peter Jackson said, yes, I am aware of that, what I want you to do is use your acting skills to portray the wizard for the duration of the film. So Sir Ian said okay, and then he asked himself, hmm, how will I do that. And this is what he did. He imagined what it would be like to be a wizard, and then he pretended and acted in that way on the day. And how did he know what to say? The words had been written down for him in a script. How did he know where to stand? People told him.

So the whole thing is an illusion. Sir Ian wasn't really Gandalf, he was pretending.

Why is this written in third person

Downward Spiral finally connected me after years ago leaving me cold. Definitely going up on my final list.
