19d ago1:15:17

1:15:17

"High Concept" is sometime used as a derogatory term for movies that are more about a saleable idea than a good script.

1M ago1:23:16

1:23:16

Yep, it's one of those "what did Pat find at the record store?" episodes, with an emphasis on lesser known artists (unless the guitarist from Tortoise is a secret superstar). It's a testament to jazz's recent love affair with vinyl that the newest album came out on the black stuff, one of the "historic" albums is a reissue, and another one - a "cra…
