Miles Davis- Recognize!!!!!!!!

Miles Davis.  Interviews of Miles are rare.  His performances defined cool. This is "Agitation"-- a lesser known record, performed probably in the mid 1960's with Ron Carter, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter and  Tony Williams . The second video is "Walkin'", performed on November 7, 1967 at the Stadthalle, Karlsruhe, Germany. This is an old one---way before my time...and for sure isn't one of my favorites.  But watching it, the way it was filmed, the vibe--   makes me want a time machine. But mostly it makes me regret never learning how to play an instrument.  He personified cool and beyond.  Even as he got older.  He was a stud. I love geeking out on old Miles records.  I own every single one...even the later ones that got a little weird.  Love those too.

Craze. Laffy Taffy.

Got hip to this thread through Alan Ket's blog posts.

Lil' Wayne plays Guitar, Like I speak Chinese

Hands down he is one of the most compelling rappers out right now.  He has a sick sense of style and stage show.  I listen to his record damn near every other workout. But peep how awkward he is with the guitar at the end of this clip.

Blow Up - Michelangelo Antonioni (Original Trailer)

This Antonioni movie is a must for the DVD collection.  A definitive movie- capturing the early UK mod scene.  Super moody, sexy  and stylish.  It probably made Kubrick jealous.  It has a great scene with the Yardbirds.

Before there was M.I.A., there was Sister Nancy.

Epic record. Recognize.
