Super fun interview with Gurinder Chadha (@GurinderC) and @sarfrazmanzoor about their film “Blinded By the Light”. Great story about how art can connect across cultures.

I’m back at Amanpour & Company (@AmanpourCoPBS)…and I got two great interviews in my first week. I’m going to post links, and fill back in some faves from my run earlier in the summer.

Ladies and Gents please welcome MIKE CLARK (@mikeclarkdrums) to Bandcamp! Indigo Blue Live at the Iridium – a live set w/ Headhunters drummer Mike Clark, Christian McBride and others I can’t list in a tweet! I missed this perf but I love hearing Mike play, this is gonna be hot.

NTS has a v. cool series called IN FOCUS which does what you expect on all sorts of different bands and musicians. Everything from indie pop – Sarah Records – to Mad Professor to Françoise Hardy to John Cage, and for some reason, George Michael.

I’m extremely excited about this coming weekend’s Warp Records 30th Anniversary event aka WXAXRXP – 100 hours of radio on NTS. The iMac at home will be busy recording the stream!

The year is 2019. A new Jim Jarmusch film, a zombie caper, plays at the mall cineplex. Peter Murphy just announced a 9 night residency at a club in New York. The first night he will play his entire album “Should The World Fail to Fall Apart”. Donald Trump is president.

This long article about Madonna is an interesting read – good match of writer to subject. 📰

Here’s a fun interview – Ruth Reichl talks about her career, disguises, the Le Cirque review and her time at Gourmet – watch here.

Meant to post this earlier – here’s the interview of Stanley Nelson from Amanpour & Company earlier this week. Watch here
