40 years ago today, my favorite album of all time was released. I've played this more than any other since my sophomore year of high school. It's the one album I can listen to over and over and never grow tired of.
Got Tom Waits "Nighthawks at the Diner" on in the car for my drive to work. Like it better everytime I play it. His band is a group of really, really good jazz musicians, and everyone invovled (including the audience) seems to be having a great time.
After spending part of the evening waxing poetic about the endings of Jacques Demy's The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and the Futurama episode, "Jurassic Bark."
