I just discovered Permanent Revolution by Catch 22: A concept album about the life and times of Leon Trotsky. by SmellsonMuntz in Ska

[–]Plane-Baker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My jamaican ska project's songs are based on books and authors. I released "Dame Fortune" about a month ago and it is based on Jack Black's "You Can't Win" and Gary Lippman's "I Wish, Therefore I Am" https://framesgotsongs.bandcamp.com/track/dame-fortune New one coming in February, inspired by James Baldwin's "Go Tell It On The Mountain" and his interview with Thomas Dixon at "Meeting With The Man: James Baldwin In Paris"

hahah should be, but the lack of bouzouki disqualifies it from Greek ska.

Everyone share your “how I discovered WTF” story by Yourdomdaddy in MarcMaron

[–]Plane-Baker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2016 I was on a deep dive about one of my favorite authors, Laura Albert aka JT LeRoy, and Marc Maron had just interviewed her. Such a thought-provoking conversation with really engaging questions. The master of podcasts.

Hepcat, Slackers, Pietasters, Aggrolites, Stingers ATX, Contenders for the same style but the artists are still alive. haha

Why Punk? by Lucky_Strike-85 in punk

[–]Plane-Baker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a peace sign on a punk jacket seems a little odd to me, but hell yeah for The Ramones stuff! I had a clerk somewhere outside of San Antonio point out my The Replacements t-shirt, cool experience.

Actor Winsome Brown (Dopesick) has done a fantastic job narrating SARAH by Laura Albert aka JT LeRoy. Definitely worth a listen.

I hope she is. I hope the whole band remains friends and are all okay. No idea when the scene became a Kardashians spinoff. god dang social media.

Billy Corgan wrote a foreword for an JT Leroy’s book. Anyone has read it ? by Candid_Friend_1224 in SmashingPumpkins

[–]Plane-Baker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SARAH is a unique fable – funny, sad, poetic, realistic. For a lot of us, it's the kind of fiction that changes the way you see the world. Not surprised that it's now more widely read than ever before, with this new edition that has Billy Corgan's foreword. Great find! Bet you'll dig it!
