For all the Canelo Alvarez haters out there…🤓

This is what happens when one man, a bowed guitar, a looper, and pure creativity collide on a sidewalk. Reinhardt Buhr builds entire sonic landscapes in real time — layers upon layers of hypnotic rhythms and melodies that feel like they could soundtrack a desert journey or a late-night drive through the unknown. It’s not just music. It’s storytelling with strings and pedals. Street performances like this remind us how powerful live, raw creativity can be. Who else gets completely lost in performances like this? 👇

Love Train (1972) • The O'Jays

Never stops being hilarious. 😂

I’m often asked about the pegboard scene in VISION QUEST. That was all me. No stunt doubles or safety measures. I trained for a long time and had to climb it several times to get all the angles. The “trick” is not to over extend, so you’d be pulling up your entire body weight. You have to keep it compact. Arms and elbows tight. 💪🏽 You can support the @FMJDiary project by bidding on a signed VQ poster here: ebay.com/itm/206252131912

Francis Ford Coppola is known for saying that “the shot” in Cinema is like “the sentence” in literature: piece together a few shots, you have a paragraph. It’s relevant now when we see a reduction in shot length in today’s films & far more cuts in editing. Bring back “the shot”.

Bertrand Russell was born in 1872. He remembered his grandfather (who had met Napoleon, introduced the Reform Bill of 1832, and served as Prime Minister) "quite well." In a remarkable interview, he reflected on the world of his youth: "The world where I was young was a solid world. A world where all kinds of things that have now disappeared were thought to be going to last forever." The British took naval supremacy not as a political reality but as a fact of nature. Germany wasn't feared — Bismarck was dismissed as "a rascal" and "a sort of uneducated farmer." The assumption was that Goethe and Schiller would eventually bring Germany back to civilisation. Bismarck himself compared Germany and England to an elephant and a whale — each formidable in its own element, no danger to each other. That was exactly how they felt. There was also a shared political assumption: that the entire world was gradually, inevitably moving toward parliamentary democracy. His grandmother once said cheerfully to the Russian ambassador: "Perhaps someday you will have a parliament in Russia." He replied: "God forbid." Russell notes, dryly, that a Russian ambassador today might give the same answer — "except for the first word." At home, life was shaped by Puritanical austerity. Family prayers at 8am. Half an hour of piano practice beforehand — which Russell hated. Eight servants, yet food of "the utmost simplicity." If apple tart appeared alongside rice pudding, the adults had the apple tart. Russell had the rice pudding. What Russell describes isn't just personal memoir. It's a civilisation that had mistaken its own moment for a permanent condition — that looked at the arrangements of the late 19th century and concluded: this is how things are, and how they will remain. They were wrong about almost everything.

I know the new generation jazz singers are trying their best, but the recipe is not like it used to be back in the day. John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman were one of those singers that knew how to emote authentic love and feelings through music

Bloodstone- Natural high (1973)

Dream a little dream of me, by Ella Fitzgerald featuring Louis Armstrong

Remembering Glenn Gould, born on this day in 1932 in Toronto. Here he is performing Bach's Partita #2 at his cottage in Uptergrove, Ontario in the 1958 documentary film “Off the Record.”

If you’re gonna ‘Take Five,’ you gotta take it with the Dave Brubeck Quartet.

Full concert of the last Pink Floyd reunion at Live 8 (2005) Enjoy this masterpiece.

This is such a good song, “American Pie.”

Ten years ago, David Bowie passed away. His iconic concert near the Berlin Wall, and his emotionally charged performance, sparked protests and chants on the East side. It helped heighten tensions and shift the atmosphere in divided Berlin.
