Musician and producer Bryan Loren has died, probably best known for 'We'll Be Together' (Sting) and 'Do the Bartman', but this may be his best record: '(Baby Tell Me) Can You Dance', a hit for teen singer Shanice Wilson in 1987 www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkNR...

It is quite funny that younger people get told by my generation that the Nineties was all Britpop (or perhaps Grunge in the US), but if you actually look at the British charts, it's mostly dance records made in Italy and the Netherlands.

Great piece of writing about a song I had never given much thought. And glad I never started with alcohol. The guitar solo indeed sounds like a yelping dog.

And ofc the most significant "protest music" of the MPLS crisis is the callithumpian racket being kicked up by citizens themselves in the streets—alerting neighbors to the presence of Trump's thugs w/whistles & raising hell outside ICE agents' hotels w/drums, sticks, pots, pans, sirens, chants, etc.

Reasonable case could be made that Sly Dunbar is the greatest studio musician of all-time. Like since the invention of recorded sound.

It seems Sly Dunbar has died. This is his first ever recorded performance. One of the greatest singles ever.

My fav new album this week is The Sgidonologist2 by the young South African producer Djy Ora. Showing great progress since his debut album (last September!) and working closely with the duo M&N Projects, he represents the harder edge of amapiano to great effect. music.apple.com/nl/album/the...

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

I need to hear from the folks in the 60/70s and protesting Vietnam (and everything else)...did shit feel as corrupt, unjust, overwhelming, and impossible to overcome as they do now? Not inviting you to compare, more how you felt in the moment, not knowing what you know now
