Now It’s Let It Be….

That’s getting the deluxe Reissue. Listen to Androgynous (Alternate Version) that apparently includes a few seconds of piano that were clopped from the album (?). Liner notes by the way cooler than you Elizabeth Nelson of the Paranoid Style.

Alien: Earth Episodes 1&2 Easter Eggs

My latest obsession is the new Alien: Earth series on Hulu. Just the right balance of callbacks to previous Alien movies and fresh creative ideas. It’s pretty … pretty … pretty … pretty good. Some of the stuff this New Rockstars guy notices might be a stretch, but he catches a ton of details I missed.

Anyway, enjoy or don’t. But don’t text me six months from now saying, “Oh my god, have you watched Alien: Earth? It’s amazing!” (You know who you are.)

RIP Superlungs

Terry Reid famously turned down both Zep and Deep Purple.

Good story from Musicradar (the number 1 website for musicians, y’all):

“Keith asked me to support the Stones in the States, but then shortly afterward Jimmy wanted me to join his new band. I was torn. In the end, I put the ball in Jimmy’s court. I said: ‘You’d better speak to Keith and tell him I’m not going.’

“But Jimmy bottled it. He said: ‘I’m not having him shoot me in the fucking leg.’

I only have the River, but it’s a good one.
