______ Passed Away Today, RIP (6 Viewers)

Think I always liked the one Rogers used in the movie Six-Pack which is a decent flick with a young Diane Lane. 

Well it's your mind, that tricks you in believin everytime
Love will turn you around, turn you around
Well it's your heart, that talks you into stayin where you are
Love will turn you around, turn you around

RIP

 
My mom loved him. Saw him in concert a few times in the 70s or 80s. This would have made her so sad. If there’s a heaven she’s probably pretty happy to see him. I put together a Spotify send up, kids cleaning out the bus during our isolation, thinking of mom. RIP both of you. 

 
This one hurts
To add - I grew up with my dad playing guitar all the time. Most of the time he was singing and playing traditional Irish songs and various others. But he played The Gambler and young McB LOVED that song and requested it every time he broke out the guitar.

So, it’s not losing Kenny Rogers as much as remembering that.

Watched this with my daughter last night.  I've always loved this movie.  At the end, she said, that was a pretty good movie.  Erin Gray was great to look at too.

"The year is 1987 and NASA launches the last of America's Deep Space Probes. 

In a freak mishap, Ranger 3 and it's pilot, Captain William "Buck" Rogers are BLOWN out of their trajectory into an orbit which freezes his life support systems 

And returns Buck Roger to Earth 500 Years later..."

Buck Rogers  Palance guest stars in this 2 Part episode and it's one of the best in the Series, even has some old football Xs and Os in it. 

 
Gabi Delgado-López, best known as cofounder of proto-EBM and electropunk outfit Deutsch-Americanische Freundschaft (D.A.F.) has died at 61.

Eric Weissberg whose recording of Dueling Banjos was a unlikely Pop hit in 1973.  Bob Dylan chose Weissberg's band Deliverance to accompany him on Blood on the Tracks but he fired them and re-recorded most of the material.

 
Cameroon/French sax player Manu Dibango died from COVID-19 at age 86.  He was best known for his 70s song Soul Makossa which was a minor hit at the time but later had its hook used by Michael Jackson and Rihanna.

Mama-say, mama-sa, ma-ma-ko-ssa

 
Met him. My director cousin's first big job on the production side was as dance captain on The Rink, which basically meant he was the Minelli-wrangler during the worst of her substance-abuse trouble. Couldnt believe how gracious the production team was when they might all have been more talented than the bane/boon of their existence. Visiting backstage, i was still getting used to non-fabulous gay guys and he impressed me. RIP -

Having two 95yos at home during this contagion is so stoopitly frustrating. I know its weird to want them to go of their own accord after all they been thru, but it's kindaall they got. They been good with it so far, God bless em.

 
Bill Rieflin who was one of the post-Bill Berry drummers in R.E.M. died of cancer at age 59.  Rieflin appeared on the band's last three studio albums.  He was also of the three drummers in the most recent version of King Crimson.

 
####.

Architect, urbanist, educator, critic...Michael Sorkin lost to covid at 71. 

Saw him lecture a couple times...brilliant, entertaining, giving- an absolutely huge loss.

John Prine still alive despite trending on Twitter.

I’ve seen him twice, he’s a whole mood.

In Spite of Ourselves

She don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
She looks down her nose at money
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
She's my baby, I'm her honey
I'm never gonna let her go

He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
Caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
He's my baby, I'm his honey
I'm never gonna let him go

In spite of ourselves we'll end up a-sittin' on a rainbow
Against all odds, honey we're the big door-prize
We're gonna spite our noses right off of our faces
There won't be nothin' but big ol' hearts dancin' in our eyes

She thinks all my jokes are corny
Convict movies make her horny
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
Swears like a sailor when she shaves her legs
She takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'
I'm never gonna let her go

He's got more balls than a big brass monkey
A whacked-out weirdo and a love bugged junkie
Sly as a fox crazy as a loon
Payday comes and he's a-howlin' at the moon
He's my baby, I don't mean maybe
I'm never gonna let him go
