So this morning I had one of those rare pop music experiences, of the kind that leave you tingling all over and feeling good about life. I discovered recently that my local Lite FM station is now geared toward people my age. After I got over feeling old, I started enjoying myself. And today, they played Toto's 1984 hit "Africa." That's one of those song I've never gotten tired of despite its ubiquity. But today, WOW. It was like a cosmic convergence, the perfect song at the perfect time. https://youtu.be/FTQbiNvZqaY

Technically, this should be in So What Are You Watching Part 2, but there's no images, so... See, I still have my old super-deluxe DVD box set of the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon, and the special features disc includes a radio-drama style production of the unproduced series-finale script (written by the estimable Michael Reaves, whose recent passing prompted me to dust off this box set in the first place.) The production is quite good, with excellent narration and mostly solid voice acting (except for the actor playing Venger, who lacks Peter Cullen's awesome baritone range.) It's also worth noting that Katie Leigh, one of the original cast members, is present, in not one but two roles, as siblings Bobby and Sheila. As for how it all ends, click the spoiler box below. Venger IS Dungeon Master's son, as had been hinted at in earlier installments. The kids restore Venger to his noble pre-corruption self, and Dungeon Master rewards them by opening a portal home, then giving them the choice of either returning home or staying and having more adventures.
The viewer is left to decide what they chose.

Between R. Shulman and Keith Reid of Procol Harum, it was a rough week for prog fans.

Eerily enough, I was listening to a Procol Harum greatest hits cassette just a few days before Keith Reid died.
RIP.

Queen!
Greatest Hits and Classic Queen -- these two compilations combined span their entire studio output. Sure, there are many omitted singles, and no deep cuts, but still a very satisfying listen.

Genesis, "Duke," my firm favorite album of the Phil Collins Era. Few songs evoke my Quito childhood of the early 80s the way "Misunderstanding" does. https://youtu.be/C_L-S-0Gc4I

RIP Gordon Lightfoot A genuine folk artist. So many good songs, it was hard to pick just one, but I decided on "Carefree Highway." https://youtu.be/Lfo0XBrGgI0

One of my favorite Old Time Radio podcasts is currently doing The Blue Beetle on Mondays. Not the greatest radio show of all time, but fun nonetheless!

Horrible news:
Andy Rourke, erstwhile session bassist and the only ex-member of the Smiths that I still love unconditionally, has died at 59 of pancreatic cancer.
He was also arguably the group's greatest musical talent.
I'll post videos later. I'm too distraught right now.
RIP, Andy. You'll always be my favorite.

In 2007, Andy Rourke played bass on the entirety of sometime Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown's critically acclaimed solo album, "The World Is Yours." Here's the opening track, also the title track: https://youtu.be/IiLKLFDPHuMAndy Rourke's last major musical project, the dance-rock trio D.A.R.K., was also the last major musical project of Dolores O'Riordan, best known as the Cranberries' frontwoman (she passed away in 2017.) They released one album, "Science Agrees." Here's the opening track, "Curvy:" https://youtu.be/YWo-tNkHnOEAnd here's the closing track, "Loosen the Noose:" https://youtu.be/m1aYLbWg9IMWhile not an out-and-out artistic triumph, D.A.R.K. was certainly interesting and full of potential never realized.

New album out soon. They've not played too near me, although they have had a gig somewhere I do visit. I'll keep an eye open.

The soundtracks for the first six Star Trek movies. Star Trek 4 (the eco-hippie/time-travel one with the whales) will never be my favorite entry, but I seriously overlooked Leonard Rosenman's music for it! Simply wonderful! From now on, that soundtrack is going to be my go-to music for writing my Legion fan fics. Main title: https://youtu.be/QYuAdOWVcEcEnd theme: https://youtu.be/CV-CojamFws
