A couple of years ago I wrote about a chance meeting with Donovan. He was in Boston last month for a show that Denro and I attended. Donovan’s singing voice may not be what it was, but the groovy vibe is the same as 50 years ago.
Lia’s Love is Enough
Lia Pamina’s presence on this blog goes way back, almost to its start ten years ago. I find myself supressing a sniffle or two at how proud I am of our retro 60’s girl, for sticking to her dream of presenting a lovely and sweet style of singing inspired by Margo Guryan and Claudine Longet.
Lia’s first album, “Love is Enough” is available for order in America at this link. To borrow Lia’s favorite expression, “So cool!”
Montgomery Burns says, “Gimme Some Money!”
The one and only Harry Shearer is suing for Spinal Tap royalties, to the tune of $125 million.
The Lost and Found Skeleton
The creator of a movie franchise writing his own fan fiction?? Forget about “The City on the Edge of Forever,” and visit the “Suburb at the Edge of Never,” the first novel by Larry “Doc Armstrong” Blamire!
Go Bing!
G. Michael Dobbs, aka Mike, aka (by myself) the Dobbster, interviews former mainstream comic book artist, now teacher, Steve Bissette. Mike and Steve will be appearing at the Bing Comic-Con in Springfield, MA, this coming Saturday.
Avengers Assemble!
There sure are a lot of Marvel Comics actors in this “get out the vote” video. They don’t mention Donald Trump by name, but by inference. The video features Tony Stark, and Natasha Romanova (or, if you prefer, Romanoff), and Bruce Banner, and S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Coulson, but where’s Steve Rogers, aka Captain America? Wouldn’t he be the most effective spokesman against bullying and Demagoguery?
