Fogerty!

[reposted - I'm uncomfortable with the ease of accusations re: Nazi behavior without any proof, as with plagiarism and other accusations, but it's a beautiful story, and to me highlights the fickleness of fate and science, especially during wartime - we know of 1 German Nobel denied to a Jewish woman, Lise Meitner, who had to go into exile, but also there can be normal academic jealousies and sparring and other petty human behavior among our better natures, along with just plain bad luck or not enough promotion.-PP]

Rock and Roll Firefight

I picked up this quote from Ulysses somewhere, I didn’t read the book. 

“It is the Wine that leads me on, the wild wine. The wine that sets the wisest man to sing at the top of his lungs and laugh like a fool. Sometimes it drives a man to dancing, it even tempts him to blurt out stories better left untold.” 

An overdose on homegrown crafts and living. Though once you get past "Ingalls was a product of her time", there's not too much to criticize except "don't do this at home in 2020, kids... at least the racial tropes, not the cookies." (As if we didn't have Eagles & Neil Young songs in the 70s noting the rapaciousness of our conquest if the West)

Self-explanatory. Give jazz a chance.

He is still a shock rocker. It's just that his shock gimmick now is making a classic and incredible rock album in 2020.

I didn't post on this at the time but, in 2017, a very famous artist, Kent Lovelace, in the Seattle area passed away. I met him on occassion. I thought you guys here at Dagblog might appreciate.

Except he'd give it a Yeagerism, like "that wasn't too tough". Presumably there's a Flyboy saloon he'll be at for happy hour. Hope no speed limits on the other side.

Building off of previous posts here in the Creative Corner, I found this lovely little number on YouTube. The person who put this together was somewhat brilliant - amplifying the announcer's voice from an episode of The Great Gildersleeve old time radio show.

I figure that this is actually the sort of music people, or at least people who read Dagblog, could use during such trying times.

Some things are too good to be true
