Every once in a while I’ll remember this and have a good laugh
Every year has at least one movie that gets hyped up as a “monumental cinematic achievement” and the early praisers gotta walk it back a bit once normal people get to watch it

Imaging finding the missing link between Jimi Hendrix & Marquee Moon… We live & learn.
Velvert Turner learned how to play guitar from Jimi Hendrix and then he taught Richard Lloyd from Television how to do it too – and that's pretty much what his album sounds like

I’m endlessly fascinated by the CBGB punk scene and how disparate bands with no meaningful shared musical identity coalesced as a scene. Like, what connects Television to the Ramones? Or Blondie to Suicide? Or Talking Heads to the Heartbreakers? Amazing!
Televisionは、よく「早すぎたポストパンク」とも形容されますが。個人的には完璧主義でデビューが遅すぎたサイケロックという気がしてならないのですよね。ドアーズなんかの方が近い。 10代の頃、彼らがピストルズやラモーンズと同じ「パンク」として括られている意味がよく分からなかったものです。

me entero que murió richard lloyd y todos deberíamos estar dándole play a este disco mientras cocinamos algo rico. la guitarra eléctrica tiene un antes y un después de este señor. nadie consiguió sonar con esta sofisticación, diría que casi matemática. tidal.com/album/251645/u

Lee Chang-dong’s Possible Love begins its theatrical run this week. Here’s my review explicating what makes the film “novelistic” and why this is Lee’s most successful attempt yet to translate his literary sensibility into his cinema: reverseshot.org/reviews/entr…
