’The Last Waltz’ Is The Best Thanksgiving Movie Ever Made
As immortalized by Martin Scorsese, The Band’s farewell concert embodies everything great and troubling about Thanksgiving.

thinking about Eckhart Tolle and the death of ego on this moody Saturday morning. which is good because even just thinking about it, bringing awareness to it moves towards transcendence - this quote by Bikramjit Konwar really sums it up: ‘Ego and acceptance are two opposite ways’ which do u choose?

Meg is one of the best people I've ever worked with in my whole career, and we're fighting for a fair livelihood to keep making radio for you all. What's weird is we're growing and successful, so this fight shouldn't exist. We deserve a fair contract for this substantive (and sustainable) work.

I like thinking about deserted island albums … Voodoo is high on the list. I feel like you can eat coconuts everyday for the rest of your life and be fine with it as long as you still have daily access to D’Angelo covering ‘Feel Like Makin’ Love’ sounds really fkn nice right about now honestly.

blushed and blushed and blushed specifically during last night’s listen of Dr. Feelgood amongst the entirety of I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You at Mono Space last night. Could’ve been the bourbon but mostly I think I’m in my Dr. Feelgood era of life. Thx to the excellent guide, Meg Samples 💚

love this band 💚
"all five members dug into the tapes here, frequently stunning each other with the bits of sound they could twist into new shapes. In three years, SML has become a dazzling studio jazz band that’s never actually been in a studio, using live recordings as the raw material for radical postproduction."
How Does SML Make Experimental Jazz Albums? Very Unconventionally.
