The May 2023 Record Spin Challenge: Silver Screen Edition

22 The Usual Suspects
"One can not be betrayed, if one has no people - Kobayashi
Interpret how you wish

Dave Grohl made the first Foo Fighters record all by himself except for one guitar part contributed by Greg Dulli. To my knowledge, Greg Dulli has not yet betrayed Dave Grohl.

I still think it's the best one. I adore 'Exhausted'...

Foo Fighters - S/T


 
23 The Breakfast Club
"Yo wastoid, you're not gonna blaze up in here." - Andrew
Interpret how you wish

Steppenwolf penned some really fine political songs that rock. Here's one about grass...

Steppenwolf - The Second



Starin' at the boob tube, turnin' on the big knob
Tryin' to find some life in the waste land
Fin'ly found a program, gonna deal with Mary Jane
Ready for a trip into hate land
Obnoxious Joe comes on the screen
Along with his guest self-righteous Sam
And one more guy who doesn't count
His hair and clothes are too far out

While pushin' back his glasses Sam is sayin' casually
"I was elected by the masses"
And with that in mind he starts to unwind
A vicious attack on the finest of grasses

Well it's evil, wicked, mean and nasty
(Don't step on the grass, Sam)
And it will ruin our fair country
(Don't be such an ass, Sam)
Well, it will hook your Sue and Johnny
(You're so full of bull, Sam)
All will pay that disagree with me
(Please give up you already lost the fight, alright)

Misinformation Sam and Joe
Are feeding to the nation
But the one who didn't count counted them out
By exposing all their false quotations
Faced by a very awkward situation
This is all he'd say to save the day

Well it's evil, wicked, mean and nasty
(Don't step on the grass, Sam)
And it will ruin our fair country
(Don't be such an ass, Sam)
Well, it will hook your Sue and Johnny
(You're so full of bull, Sam)
All will pay that disagree with me
(Please give up you already lost the fight alright)

You waste my coin Sam, all you can
To jail my fellow man
For smoking all the noble weed
You need much more than him
You've been telling lies so long
Some believe they're true
So they close their eyes to things
You have no right to do
Just as soon as you are gone
Hope will start to climb
Please don't stay around too long
You're wasting precious time

Well it's evil, wicked, mean and nasty
(Don't step on the grass, Sam)
And it will ruin our fair country
(Don't be such an ass, Sam)
Well, it will hook your Sue and Johnny
(You're so full of bull, Sam)
All will pay that disagree with me
(Please give up you already lost the fight, alright)

"There's a lot of uh, well, badness in the world today. I see it in court every day. I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them." - Judge Smails

"One can not be betrayed, if one has no people - Kobayashi

So, I know Willie Nelson has lots of people, but yet, he's peerless.

Plus I've been watching the Beato - Lanois interview and it made me want to listen to this.

Play something about judgement or death

I think I'd dig out the Judgement Night OST and play that because I still think it's crazy that they not only made it but that it actually worked! Also it gives me a chance to share this insane video!



Mike D on drums and Mike Watt on bass, that's the Dinosaur Jr I remember!!

I am still totally crushed that Mark Lanegan is no longer among the living. I miss him terribly.

This record has bleeding, a hospital, a syndrome, a gravedigger, an elegy and a funeral. If death were a batter, it hits for the cycle and then some.

Thanks for everything, Mark...

Mark Lanegan - Blues Funeral

 
Day 22 The Usual Suspects
"One can not be betrayed, if one has no people - Kobayashi
Interpret how you wish
OR
Play a record by a solo artist

I'd probably play Edan "Beauty and the Beat" because he's a solo artist and that album is fantastic, one of my all time favorite records!

I remember when I watched the Usual Suspects for the first time, I was at a friend's house and after getting a touch high my friends said, you need to see this movie, they put it on, I had no idea what it was or what I was watching but WOW, that first time really hits!
 
Back at it - I got 6 nights off to try to catch up...

Day 18 - Crimes and Misdemeanors
Play something about losers.

Howie lost in the end. And no...I've never watched the Nicolas Cage remake which was also a loser - although it didn't win any of its 5 Golden Raspberry Awards - thanks to Basic Instinct 2 and Little Man coming out that same year. (EDIT - I have "watched" the remake, but only with the Rifftrax commentary)
