Liberty 1962
Reviewby Bruce Eder
Musically, in terms of being a James Bond score, Dr. No is the weakest of the soundtrack albums in the film series, with only Monty Norman's "James Bond Theme" marking out familiar territory. But as a piece of music and a pop culture artifact, Dr. No may be the most interesting album in the whole output of the James Bond series. A good portion of the most memorable music in the film, including "Kingston Calypso" (the "Three Blind Mice" theme from the opening of the film) and "Jump Up," constituted mainstream American (and European) audiences' introduction to the sounds of Byron Lee & the Dragonaires (who also appeared in the movie, performing "Jump Up"), who became one of the top Jamaican music acts in the world just a couple of years later; sharp-eyed viewers can catch a young white man dancing in that same scene, incidentally, who is none other than Chris Blackwell, the future founder of Island Records. Someday someone may sort out who actually played on tracks like "Twisting With James," with its heavy guitar sound and pop instrumental roots -- regardless of who it was, however, all of the music is still a pleasure to hear, not only on its own terms but for the cultural intersection that the Dr. No soundtrack represents. The movie, which was a significant success, marked one of the first penetrations of Jamaican music (albeit with a calypso beat) into the mainstream consciousness, and was of a piece with the burst in popularity for ska and reggae music in England. Of course, in the case of Dr. No, there were "distractions" as well, including the "James Bond Theme" music, Sean Connery's commanding screen presence, and Ursula Andress' physique in the movie. Despite being more exotic than any of the Bond soundtracks that followed, Dr. No has always sold steadily, based on having the original "James Bond Theme." The February 2003 remastered edition was limited to a major improvement in the analog-to-digital transfer, with a much closer, richer sound, and the addition of serious in-depth annotation. Composer Monty Norman reportedly would like to have seen more of his orchestral music on the album, but masters for any additional music from the film no longer exist.
This photo is much more than a simple entry for the Musically Challenged group. For the past six months Ethan has been fighting one of the most difficult battles of his life. Several things--injuries as a child, slightly malformed hips, possibly a body triangle in BJJ--conspired to put him in almost constant back pain. Life suddenly had to be drastically curtailed--karate, gymnastics, coaching, driving, fighting. Simple things, like picking up kids at church, or running out to the mailbox, had to stop.
Now, if you don't know Ethan, you have no idea difficult this was for him. Ethan is one of the most energetic, movement centered people I know. Ethan exists to challenge himself, and most of the time that means physically. Why walk into the water when you can jump off a cliff and do a full twisting front flip? Why stand around at the gas station when you can try to run up the wall? The last tournament he fought in before his back started bothering him he won the Super Fight, a 16 man tournament open to anybody. In the championship fight he literally smiled the entire time--he loved every minute of it. So for him to be so crippled was devastating.
Ethan took it all like a man. He didn't complain when there was nothing we could do to help him. He just quietly worked towards getting better...working hard at physical therapy, swimming lap after lap to strengthen his back. He went to karate class and sat in a chair while teaching. He would go to BJJ class and listen intently to the instructor, then quietly practice techniques in his mind since his body couldn't.
Praise God, Ethan is now better. Joshua (another brother of mine) will be testing for his black belt later this month, and Ethan will be able to fight him at the test--a rite of passage and a time of bonding. All because Ethan wouldn't back down.
Day 334 Year 3 Thank you for all the kind words of support on my earlier shot today
I do so appreciate your kindness and concern.
One of my favourite performers to photograph, Fatoumata Diawara. She is an absolute joy...musically and photographically.
This is from her gig with Cuban pianist Roberto Fonseca at this year's WOMAD Festival.
I first saw Fatou on stage at WOMAD in 2009, when she was a backing singer to Oumou Sangare. She really stood out because of her smile and her personality.

I don't care what you've done
I don't care who you've won
I know in the end you'll have your fun
But you can't have it here
And I won't let you steer
You know I don't want you in my mind
What a terrible thought
I must stay calm you know and I must be clear
It's gonna take a hundred thoughts to make this one disappear
A train like that could travel a soul for years
A terrible thought could have a terribly long career
what a terrible thought
~Terrible Thought, by Poe

yesterday i posted a status that read:
"not sure why i thought there was change happening. same song and dance, apparently. one day i might excuse myself mid-song & walk away from the dance floor."
today there is still side-stepping happening, and i hate it that much more b/c it's another 'drop of water' added to the bucket.
thank you to everyone that wrote to me concerned. i heart you all.
Literally but not musically. Thomas Blug was outstanding. No added light here, just a couple of gelled ceiling spots.

Vusi Mahlasela
Guiding Star (Naledi Ya Tsela)- ATO Records- March 6, 2007
One of the hardest things to learn as a musician is when to not only recognize inspiration, but when to trust and follow it. Over a musically and socially consequential career, South African singer-songwriter and poet-activist Vusi Mahlasela has successfully followed his muse. That trust in his gift is at the root of his latest album, Guiding Star.
Mahlasela wrote and recorded this album as he toured the globe. Its soul-stirring title is very much a product of the new friends he's met and experiences he's had touring. Bearing the influences of various music and voices from throughout the world, Guding Star features guest appearances from friend (and partial ATO Records label head) Dave Matthews ('Sower of Words'), band leader and Allman Brothers guitarist Derek Trucks ('Tibidi Waka'), Australian didgeridoo star Xavier Rudd ('Chamber of Justice'), singer-songwriter Jem ('Everytime') and longtime friends and touring mates Ladysmith Black Mambazo ('Heaven In My Heart'). Mahlasela also drew on the talents of numerous South African guests, including the legendary 'Black Moses' Ngwenya of the Soul Brothers, the children's choir from the Agnes Chidi School in his home Township, Mamelodi, and the KCC Gospel, among many others.
Mahlasela, an accomplished guitarist, percussionist, composer, arranger, band leader and performer, has bridged generations at home and abroad. His sound is a hybrid of folk, world, blues and soul, one that connects South Africa's Apartheid-scarred past with its promise for a better future. Over the past three years of heavy, world-wide touring and spreading his message, Mahlasela has remained true to his roots.
The bulk of Guiding Star was recorded on a farm in rural South Africa. Like any Vusi Mahlasela album, there are songs that connect him and the people of South Africa with both their past, present, and hopes for a better future: 'Song for Thandi' tells the story of detained freedom fighter Thandi Modise, while the affecting 'Sower of Words'—featuring Dave Matthews—is a lament for the late Black Consciousness poet and writer Ingoapele Madingoane, who wrote the influential poem 'Africa My Beginning, Africa My Ending.'
'There's a part on it where I needed a very strong voice to drive the message across, and Dave was the perfect voice,' Mahlasela says of the latter. 'Dave adds passionate, rich vocals to this song, taking it to a new level.'
Born Vusi Sidney Mahlasela Ka Zwane in 1965 in Lady Selborne, South Africa, Mahlasela became enchanted by music at an early age, building his first guitar out of tin and fishing line. Reared in Mamelodi Township, a vibrant artist community where he still resides, he gravitated toward poetry and songwriting as a teen, eventually joining youth organizations protesting South Africa's separatist, white government.
Reading poems at night vigils, funerals and anti-Apartheid marches triggered a long streak of police harassment. Local police soon began requiring that he keep them abreast of his whereabouts at all times, and his poems and songs were routinely confiscated—forcing him to memorize his work. It was a time when people like him would 'just disappear indefinitely,' he recalls, or, in Mahlasela's case, be held for periods of time. 'Somehow you get some sort of courage. You look at what's happening to your comrades, and you see that their struggle has to be testified—and you don't have to be afraid.'
In 1988, he joined the Congress of South African Writers, developing a new level of confidence as a poet and a writer. He struck up a creative friendship with South African poet Lesego Rampolokeng (who joins Mahlasela and Dave Matthews on 'Sower of Words'), while falling under the spell of artists like Miriam Makeba and Phillip Tabane and the work of Victor Jara— all central influences on Mahlasela's music and lyrics.
Mahlasela never knew his father, finally locating him in 2000, sadly, six months after his death. When he was in his early 20s, his mother collapsed in church, dying the same day, just a year after she'd proudly held his first recording in her hands and wept. He wrote the new song 'River Jordan' for her, and it was with her inspiration and the motivation of leaders like Nelson Mandela that Mahlasela crafter his official debut, 1991's When You Come Back, produced by Lloyd Ross, who returns to the controls for Guiding Star.
After the end of Apartheid, Vusi performed at Mandela's inauguration in 1994, and is now an ambassador to Mandela's 46664 Foundation, a campaign to help raise Global awareness of Aids/ HIV. Mahlasela proudly promotes Mandela's message at all of his performances. Having released a string of albums in South Africa, it wasn't until the debut in 2003 of the documentary film Amandla! A Revolution in Four-Part Harmony, a film that charts South Africans' longtime struggle for racial equality, that Americans first glimpsed and heard Mahlasela. In a rave Los Angeles Times review, noted critic Robert Hilburn wrote: 'Vusi Mahlasela's voice is so pure and commanding; you wonder whether you should have gotten an entire album by him.'
Later that year, Americans did, with The Voice, a collection of the best songs from his catalog, all released for the first time in U.S. via the ATO Records label (co-owned by longtime fan and fellow South African Dave Matthews, who calls Mahlasela 'one of the most important influences of my life.). It was an album so chock full of beauty, soul and struggle that it had a profound effect on American listeners in the wake of 9/11—even though much of the album wasn't sung in English.
And that's a power that Mahlasela doesn't take lightly. A single listen to Guiding Star, is all one needs to be assured that Mahlasela is a gifted performer. And with that gift comes responsibility, says Vusi: 'I know that I have something that is like a borrowed fire from God. And I have to use it in a very positive way.'

During the late 1960’s Jazz music was undergoing a major metamorphosis. Miles Davis was musically in transition and went from the traditional acoustic quartet to a more funky electronic sound. Out went the stand-up bass and came the electronic bass. Out with the standard piano and came the Fender Rhodes. Many musicians in what would be hailed as Fusion jazz phase, took rock, soul, and other free form elements and centered it with an electronic base. Musicians like Joe Zawinul, Chick Corea, Les McCann, Herbie Hancock, and Stevie Wonder used the Fender Rhodes as not a replacement to the standard piano, but as a means to create and experimental sound to evolve with the new music that took the world by storm.
Pianist and keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith is a pioneer in the fusion jazz/funk whelm, in that he came out of the gospel and mainstream jazz tradition and created his own flair of music that many musicians from Guru to Jamiroquai to Masters at Work have emulated in soul, hip-hop, and Latin music. Lonnie’s group “The Cosmic Echoes” music is still being sampled by hip-hop and R & B artists as well still played in dance clubs all over the world.
Lonnie Liston Smith, Jr. was born on December 28, 1940 in Richmond, Virginia. Music was always part of Lonnie’s life. His father, Lonnie Liston Smith, was one of the founding members of The Harmonizing Four, which were one of many pioneering gospel groups during the 1930’s to 1950’s. As a child he was exposed to many of the gospel music greats like The Soul Stirrers featuring vocalist Sam Cooke and The Swan Silvertones. Lonnie’s father bought a piano and taught anyone who wanted to learn. He was bitten by the music bug at an early age and by the time he graduated from high school, Lonnie had become an accomplished pianist as well as trumpet and tuba player.
Upon graduating from Morgan State University in the early 1960’s he moved to New York City where he eventually graduated from school of jazz. Playing and backing the likes of Art Blakey, Roland Kirk, Pharaoh Sanders, Gato Barbieri, Betty Carter, Max Roach, Abbey Lincoln, and Miles Davis.
It was during the early 1970’s that Lonnie was introduced to the Fender Rhodes electric piano. While recording saxophonist Pharaoh Sander’s “Thembi” recording on Impulse Records, that he played the instrument for the first time. In fact, he wrote “Astral Traveling” in the first 10 minutes that he first tinkered with the Rhodes. Sanders loved the song and recorded it that afternoon. It was also during his recording with Pharaoh that he became friends with legendary record producer Bob Thiele, founder of Flying Dutchman Records. Thiele, whose legendary work includes producing the late Buddy Holly and all of John Coltrane’s sessions while at Impulse Records, extended the offer for Lonnie to record his first record.
In 1973 Lonnie formed The Cosmic Echoes and would record music and a sound that was different during the 1970’s. His first band consisted of bassist Cecil McBee, percussionist James Mtume, guitarist Joe Beck, saxophonist George Barron, and drummer David Lee, Jr. Lonnie’s debut recording “Astral Traveling” came out to rave reviews. This was also the same time that Lonnie was touring with trumpeter Miles Davis who had just recorded and released “On The Corner” and “Big Fun.” For almost 14 years The Cosmic Echos recorded fourteen records which included “Expansions,” “Cosmic Funk,” and “Loveland.”
During the mid-1980’s into the mid-1990’s Lonnie recorded many trio jazz recordings as well as paired up with the late rapper Guru for his landmark Jazzmatazz recording. Over the years Lonnie’s music has been sampled and rediscovered by a new legion of R & B and Hip-Hop artists. Some of them include: Young Jeezy, O.C., Jay-Z, Digable Planets, Mary J. Blige, and Nikki Jean.
Today Lonnie is still on the road as part of the “Soulful Nights of Keys” tour featuring Mark Adams and the legendary Brian Jackson. Also, he’s in the studio recording new music. For more information on Lonnie’s upcoming club dates please visit him on the web at www.lonnielistonsmith.net.

so many visions still to see
and many travails before I may sleep
but then when I sleep
oh such reveries
- Duncan Sheik, Such Reveries
This week's challenge in Project SoulPancake is to stay up all night. Not even a month ago, this would have been an easy challenge for me. I was routinely staying up all night. Reading, watching tv, playing around online. These days, I rarely stay up past eleven. That's because I have my alarm set for 7am every morning so I can go write. And I have to say, I kind of love my new schedule. Hell, I pulled all-nighters all the time in college and law school. There's a certain magic about seeing the sun come up when you haven't gone to sleep (or is that just the mania caused by sleep deprivation?). Either way, I've been there many times. I'm going to give it a go tonight, but I have a feeling I'm going to earn myself a big fail on this week's challenge. I guess I'll go back and officially check it off next time I accidentally get caught up reading a good book and don't turn in until 6am. It's been known to happen.
Also? I swooped in and picked the songs this week in the Musically Challenged group. All of my picks are straight off of my monster-sized writing playlist. So if you want to listen to a few of the songs that have been helping me get this book written, you should check in and play along. :)

Hero~ Enrique Iglesias
(Whispered) Let me be your hero
Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight?
Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh oh please tell me these
Now would you die for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms tonight?
I can be you hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
Would you swear that you'll always be mine?
Would you lie would you run away
Am I in to deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care you're here tonight
I just want to hold you
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
Well I don't care you're here tonight
You can take my breath my breath away
I can be your hero
It's a new week of songs in Musically Challenged, this time chosen by the wonderful Hurley*83.
I am not a big country fan, but the words to this song kinda fit perfectly about the way I feel.
Playing around with my homemade snoot some more. Didn't do much in processing, thought that was fitting for the song as well:-)
Common Man by John Conlee
As the maid poured wine and we prepared to dine I know I was feeling out of place
At table as large big as a river barge and I love you written all on your face
I appreciate your hospitality but I wish that we would go
Let me drive us to McDonald’s and I’ll talk to you concerning something you should really know
I’m just a common man drive a common van
My dog ain’t got a no pedigree
If I have my say, gonna stay that way
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I’ll be
I’ll take a Chevrolet just any day so give your daddy back his Mercedes Benz
And there’s some common people that I hang out with
They’re my good time buddies they’re my friends
And I’d rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser beer then sip a crystal glass of wine
So won’t you make your mind up to believe in me and leave this high living world behind?
I’m just a common man drive a common van
My dog ain’t got a no pedigree
If I have my say, gonna stay that way
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I’ll be
Yes I’m happy just being free
And I’m happy just being me
And I hope that you will see
I’m just a common man drive a common van
My dog ain’t got a no pedigree
If I have my say, gonna stay that way
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I’ll be
I’m just a common man drive a common van
My dog ain’t got a no pedigree
If I have my say, gonna stay that way
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I’ll be
Don't forget! Tomorrow is HBCCT Come on over and play!

HNSLKLAT - Happy Not So Low Key Lame Ass Thursday!
I had no idea what to do for my 52 weeks photo and then I remembered an SP that HardyC had done a few weeks ago. Thought I would give it a shot.
One thing is for sure, I have the most whacked out, asymmetrical head!! Look how messed up my ears are, and my busted nose is all jacked up, WTF? LOL
So for shits and giggles I did two Symmetrical versions of this shot, they are in the comments. One Left side mirrored and one Right side mirrored.
And after seeing those I don't mind being a little off ;-)
But I guess thats what makes me, me.

Muse - Dig Down
Muse are an English rock band from Teignmouth, Devon, formed in 1994. The band consists of Matt Bellamy (lead vocals, guitar, piano, keyboards), Chris Wolstenholme (bass guitar, backing vocals, keyboards) and Dominic Howard (drums, percussion).
Muse released their debut album, Showbiz, in 1999, showcasing Bellamy's falsetto and a melancholic alternative rock style. Their second album, Origin of Symmetry (2001), expanded their sound, incorporating wider instrumentation and romantic classical influences, and earned them a reputation for energetic live performances. Absolution (2003) saw further classical influence, with orchestra on tracks such as "Butterflies and Hurricanes", and became the first of five consecutive UK number-one albums. The album has a noticeably darker and heavier tone musically, with a lyrical focus on the theological and apocalyptic concepts.

If there was a better way to go then it would find me
I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me

I found these cute little birdies at the dollar store. I'm telling you - you find some nice little gems there.
Day 50!! YAY!!
Some advice for the college kid and soon to be graduate from the Just graduated graduate:
Talk to everyone, form relationships, form a network and if your good and a decent person - when its time to ask for help, find a job or whatever - tap into those networks.
One of my mom's clients called me back today regarding job openings at her company. She wants my resume (!!)
Hopefully this works out along with the finance firm. I have to call him back tomorrow :)
Things are looking up! :)
Kerry and I celebrated 10 months together today - geez how time flies! I can't believe it's almost a freaking year. Time goes by so quickly that I panic sometimes and wish it would just SLOW DOWN.
a year of my life in general has nearly passed before my eyes and I only have a handful of photographs to commemorate it.
well, that's why this 365 is for! I want to remember this time - this new chapter in my life! :D
PS Ive secured by Strobist Profile Subject. Now I just have to arrange the location and plan the photo. :D

I need to feel your touch.
I need your understanding.
I need your love so much.
You tell me that you love me so.
You tell me that you care
But when I need you baby
You're never there.

TOTW, define yourself: silly, very silly
Even though Tomorrowland already has the reputation of 'the most beautiful festival of the summer', they are taking everything up another step ... both musically as organizationally ... The - bigger than ever - line-up gives us the best dance music in the world. And with dance music they mean it in the broadest sense of its meaning. It goes from electro to trance, from progressive to hardstyle, from club to drum 'n' bass, from minimal to eclectic, from techno to 90's... no less than 20 stages scattered over 2 days !
Tomorrowland 2010: Yesterday is History, Today is a Gift, Tomorrow is Mystery. The 6th edition of Tomorrowland takes place The next Saturday 24 & Sunday 25 July 2010. The most attractive and talked-about festival in Belgium will be organised again, at the De Schorre leisure complex in Boom. Ticket sales started in April, and most of the festival goers bought their tickets in advance. The 90,000 tickets of the 2009 edition were sold out in advance last year.
The fifth edition of Tomorrowland, in July 2009, was a sun-drenched and overwhelming success. A festival like a fairytale, in a unique setting. With no fewer than 90,000 exuberant visitors. Tomorrowland has already become one of the benchmarks, but also the odd man out in the busy Belgian festival summer, after 5 editions. The ID&T will leave no stone unturned again in 2010 to exceed high expectations. In the meantime, the programme looks incredible once more. There is a balanced mix of the biggest, hippest, most highly reputed and popular names from all possible sub-genres within dance. This includes David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, Swedish House Mafia, Jeff Mills, Ritchie Hwatin, Sasha, Roger Sanchez, Martin Solveig, Scooter, Derrick May, Dennis Ferrer, Loco Dice, Grooverider, John Dahlbäck, Dada Life and many others...
Last year demand for camping was much greater than the number of places available, so ID&T is also very satisfied that the camping capacity for 2010 can be doubled.
Tomorrowland guarantees a wonderful festival weekend. There is no other festival at which you can toboggan on genuine snow, where there is a choice between so many different stages, where you can celebrate on a genuine beach or in a small cave, enjoy Jacuzzis or a massage salon with a fantastic view of the main podium, where you have the biggest final fireworks, and so much more...
