Clare, in Clare and the Reasons, is Clare Muldaur, daughter of Maria and Geoff. Here she sings in defense of Pluto, the little put-upon planet that scientists say may not actually rate being called a planet. Listening to the French version, “Pluton,” on her MySpace page, with its dreamy use of a theramin sound, I get a sense that this was intended to be the missing final part of Holst’s suite The Planets, which was composed before Pluto had been discovered.

Lía Pamina shines
Speaking of 60’s fashions (see previous post), blog reader Lía Pamina, a lady of Spain and self-described 60’s retro girl, has a couple of delightful new recordings, singing the Beatles songs “Tomorrow Never Knows” and “You Like Me Too Much.” They’re produced by Robbie Leff, of the 60’s garage band The Crabs. Bravo, Lía!
Mad Men for 60’s fashions
Carol and I are into the season 2 DVD’s of “Mad Men,” and one of the discs has a nifty mini-documentary that surveys 60’s fashions.

Les-less
Les Paul, 1915-2009.
This is Denro with Les last year.
The skeleton comes out of the closet!
You will be shocked! Amazed! Even amused! By “The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra!”
Denro comes through for Joltin’ Joe
Joe Sinnott is the best ink man the comic book business has ever had. Most of Joe’s work, even the earliest of it, is instantly recognizable to fans, but there are exceptions, including hundreds of pages of Archie comics that Joe inked anonymously in the 70’s. Good, ol’ Denro has been painstakingly finding these issues and forwarding them to Joe’s son Mark.
