Here’s a song I loved in college but haven’t heard in probably 35 years. Spotify was kind enough to bring it to my attention this morning.
Please to enjoy “Flesh Number One (Beatle Dennis).”

A.V. Undercover Is Back!
And so is GWAR. They’ve done Undercover eight times now, which must be a record. Below is my favorite AVU performance of theirs, Kansas’s “Carry On My Wayward Son.”
A.V. Undercover archives are up now too. Right here.
Has This Guy Ever Made A Movie Before?
Rick Strikes Again
What can I say?
Shit
Maurizio Pollini, age 82. Probably the most technically perfect of the major pianists who began their careers in the 60’s. He studied under the obsessively perfect nutcase, Aurturo Benedetti Michelangeli. Some considered him (and his teacher’s) playing too cerebral and cold, as if they were showing contempt for the music they were playing by playing it so perfectly. I disagree.
How Much For The Whole Collection?
This is the same guy who did the Clockwork Orange location tour I posted not too long ago. I’m slightly obsessed with his channel at the moment.
You Look Like You Could Use A Laugh
So here’s one of my favorite Laurel & Hardy shorts. It’s almost 100 years old and still hilarious!
Perfect Day is historically significant for being the first movie in which someone says “Oh, shit.” (It’s ad-libbed by Uncle Edgar as the dog is helped out of the car at around the 13 minute mark.) The censors completely missed it.
Dylan Aleam Jacit
I’m taking Renfield Jr. to see Bob Dylan next month, so decided to familiarize myself with some of his more recent original material. I think this song’s as brilliant as anything he’s done (admitting that I haven’t heard everything).
Can You Tell Me How To Get
There’s an excellent HBO (excuse me, MAX) documentary called Street Gang: How We Got to Sesame Street that you bastards absolutely must check out. It’s a miracle the show ever happened, and the story is fascinating.
And the outtakes are hilarious.
