Day 3907 - Upcoming albums - 01.30.22

I pulled a bunch of records off the shelf for records that are coming up on the 1001 albums list.  I laid them out and took this photo.  After the fact I realized that I pulled the wrong ABBA album.  I accidentally pulled "The Visitors", but I should have pulled "Arrival."  Oh well.  I was going to redo the photo, but I ended up not doing it.  This is something I saw today.

Day 3901 - "Trick Or Treat" and "Terror On Tour" At The New Beverly - 01.24.22

I saw a couple rock and roll horror films tonight.  "Trick Or Treat" was far better than I expected.  I thought it was going to be more campy, but It was played fairly straight and I really liked it. "Terror On Tour" was super low budget and amateur, but it had a few interesting sequences.  It wasn't great, but it was entertaining.  The complete amateur quality had its charm.  This is something I saw today.

Day 3896 - "Arrebato" and "Videodrome" At The New Beverly - 01.19.22

Another double feature at the Bev tonight.  "Arrebato" was an interesting Spanish film.  Weird and trippy.  "Videodrome" was amazing.  I had seen it before a few years ago, but this was the first time on the big screen and it played great.  Loved it.  This is something I saw today.

Day 3895 - Records In The Living Room - 01.18.22

I had to clear off an entire record shelf so that I could move the shelf so that some electricians could access an outlet.  All of the records I have on the floor in my living room.   One good thing that has come from moving all of these records it that I came across records I had forgotten about, such as that Kay Starr record you can see.  That had some great songs on it.  This is something I saw today.

Day 3894 - "New York Ninja" and "Miami Connection" At The New Beverly - 01.17.22

I went and saw "New York Ninja" and "Miami Connection" this evening and the screening was amazing.  Of course I knew "Miami Connection" and knew that it was going to be fun, but I had no idea how awesome "New York Ninja" was going to be.  I dare say that it paid even better than "Miami Connection."  This was something I saw today.
