Joshua Gillespie and Hezekiah Wakely in this again, because I saw all of your complaints that you wanted to vote for them but chose Mike Crew instead, because you liked him most. I will do another poll with just side avatars so you have the pain of choosing again.

speed kills time.

i am, admittedly, a massive john travolta fan. so this convergence is really exciting for me.

I know it's another minor role for charlie but that's a-ok!

#and i'm already questioning so many industry things #my dad probably would have loved this movie and it just started #speed kills #john travolta #charlie gillespie

High Flight by John Gillespie Magee Jr.

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

of sun-split clouds,—and done a hundred things

You have not dreamed of—wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,

I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air ....

Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue

I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace

Where never lark nor ever eagle flew—

And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

今日のおはジャズ「Trane's First Ride Vol.1」John Coltrane '51

若き日のコルトレーンが聴けるレアなアルバムですが、実質ディジー・ガレスピーのリーダーバンドの実況録音です。ビブラフォンは恐らくミルト・ジャクソン。トレーンを聴くというよりは、全盛期のビバップを愉しむという感じ。

後に「Soul Trane」というアルバムで録音され、シーツオブ・サウンドと評されたGood Baitがここでも聴かれますが、あの吹きまくりのトレーンとは異なり、ここでは大人しめ。逆に、隣で吹きまくるディジーを羨望の眼差しで見つめるコルトレーン…って情景が浮かびます。それが後のプレイに繋がるのでしょうね。

音数も少なく控えめなコルトレーンですが、その歌い方やエキゾチックなメロディーラインは既に「コルトレーン」そのもので、この後、激しいスタイル・チェンジを繰り返す訳ですが、根本は変わって無いんだな…というのが分かります。

余談ですが、昨夜、訳あって自分のファースト・アルバムを２曲程聴く事になったのですが、その際も「こんだけ色んな音楽に影響受けて来て、スタイルチェンジも繰り返して来たのに、根本的には変わらないんだなぁ…」と我ながら思いました。

それだけ若い頃に影響受けた音楽ってのは、その人の根幹を形成する重要なものであり、その後影響受けるものは枝葉であり、大樹になる為の装飾的なものなんだな…と感じます。若い頃に何を聴いたかが如何に重要かを、このアルバムを通して考えさせられました。

The Saint: To Kill a Saint (5.19, ITC, 1967)

"You're trembling, Le Duc."

"Never!"

"You're as upset as a mother kangaroo who's just had her pouch raided."

"I am not even mildly surprised. There must be over a hundred people in Paris who would like to kill the famous Simon Templar."

Cawdron makes his fifth and #final appearance as Le Duc (spelled differently here than in previous eps where it was Leduc or even Luduc) joined for the second time by #Serret as Quercy (although tellingly Cawdron is ahead of him in the credits). yet again Simon is framed using the stick figure motif #also of note is a very risqué gag about Simon found in bed with two women and another in the shower... so risqué in fact the script then #has to go to pains to spell out that no don't worry he didn't have a foursome‚ it was all a trick to fool the cops... sure Simon...
