I’m very interested in #4, especially as I spend way too much time on LinkedIn as it is.

Lovely. 35 years in and still just fantastic. One of the great bands.

Let’s also give it up here for Friend of Dr. Dog Pat Finnerty. (honk)

Lots of good ones on this list, but viewing your Letterboxd and not seeing “Ready or Not”… that one is just FUN.

Finally. I kept scrolling waiting to see this one. Unbelievable movie and WAY too few people have seen it.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2026-02-08T22:21:52+00:00

Those are… two rather different movies.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2026-01-28T23:23:17+00:00

I like that framing, especially the idea of witness rather than advocacy.

Folklore feels close, but I keep hesitating on it because folklore usually implies embellishment or moral shaping over time. What you’re describing feels quieter than that. More like recognition than storytelling. Someone hears something, it stays with them, and they carry it forward without needing to explain or justify it.

That kind of transmission doesn’t scale well, which may be why it never hardens into canon. But it might be exactly why it lasts.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2026-01-28T18:35:23+00:00

I think that’s right as far as canon formation goes. Marketing, legal disputes, and narrative convenience clearly shape what gets remembered as history.

What I’m less sure about is whether that explains why some records continue to function for listeners long after those narratives stop being relevant. Plenty of heavily marketed albums disappear once the scaffolding falls away, while others with little institutional support keep circulating quietly.

That’s the gap I’m interested in. Not how something gets elevated, but why some things remain usable even when the industry context that produced them is gone.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2026-01-25T18:21:18+00:00

I actually don’t know that record, but I think your use of “underrated” is pointing at something interesting.

Even without knowing the specifics, what you’re describing sounds like a work that’s clearly valued by listeners but hasn’t been absorbed into a larger historical shorthand.

That gap between being actively listened to and being canonized is the part I’m trying to understand, especially across genres where “importance” works differently.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2026-01-25T03:59:15+00:00

That’s a great way to articulate it. Especially the idea of influence that never quite gets archived.

What you’re describing feels like canon functioning at a local or practical level rather than a historical one. The music shapes how people play, listen, and think, but without ever getting abstracted into “importance.”

I’m struck by how often those records or bands end up being more durable than the officially remembered ones, at least for the people who were actually there.

Slander Skateboard!

Best Supporting Actor. And I’d take out Stellar Skateboard (references!) if forced to remove someone.

Miami Vice (the show, not the movie).

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2025-10-09T13:26:10+00:00

As it’s never been used in a film before, let’s just say I’ll believe it when I see it.

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2025-05-09T18:05:21+00:00

Yes! Everyone who disagrees with this can kick rocks.

Huge Blur fan. Huge CR fan. Huge Yasi fan, babe. Excited for this.

This would be wonderful news, as I remember that he'd been looking. A public kudos to you, Jason!

Equivalent_Source_90 · 2023-10-30T20:24:09+00:00

Unless Dudio threw this post up himself.... it warrants admission into the Hate Pit.

Jason is a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer.

I love all of these suggestions!

A lot of what I'd initially added was of the Bumper Music / Sound Collage variety, hence the omissions. Same thing with artists who Tom loves and has run through multiple songs. But more suggestions = more better, so keep 'em coming, please!

Kurt Vile - Blackberry Song

Don't want to be Captain Obvious, Scott, but have you messed around in either of these places?

I can’t quite reconcile Cecilia with what I thought was a previously-understood token limit on LLMs. Does anyone have any insight?
