Laurel Canyon: A Bird’s Eye View of the Epix Documentary

Every so often, a film or documentary arrives at just the right time to soothe the feelings that the daily stress of life can create. That’s the case with Alison Ellwood’s “Laurel Canyon,” a feature-length documentary about the Los Angeles folk/rock scene of the ‘60s and ‘70s that’s currently airing in two-parts on Epix.



I’ll be honest – my expectations weren’t very high. I have seen a few other documentaries about this era, but none of them ever seemed to quite bring into focus what I’d lived as a child. I grew up on Laurel Canyon Blvd, at the foot of the canyon area on the Valley side. But I was cautiously optimistic that this film would deliver and did it ever.



Most of the other documentaries I had seen on the topic always felt incomplete and left me wanting more. This docuseries brought all the unique elements into focus and transported...

Indie music

I love Indie.
But I like the style of music called indie from the 80s and 90s, not whether a band is on an independent label or not. Labels like Sarah Records and Heaven Records I call indie labels as they never went all corporate.
But it's the indie sound like The shop Assistants, Talulah Gosh and The Fat Tulips.
Reddit winds me up cos their Indie pages are all about no-label bands and individuals and tbh, most of the music is awful! (My opinion. You might like it. Good. Don't argue)
So where's the Indie on here then?? ?

Old School Dungeon and Dragons

In the mid-70's through the early 90's, Dungeon and Dragons and similar Fantasy Role Playing Games (FRPG) were all the rage. They ultimately came not only in the form of fantasy settings, but also sci fi, horror, and ever Mad Max like games (Car Wars). Who else in here played besides me (I even wrote for a gaming company for a while) played and what did you play?

The Beatles – Rubber Soul

Rubber Soul was the 6th album from The Beatles catalog. Released in December 1965, it contains fourteen songs, including two tracks withheld from the band’s album. The album was met with a highly favourable critical response and topped sales charts in the UK and the United States for several weeks. Tracks include Girland In My Life, which, according to John Lennon, was his “first real major piece of work” because it was the first time he wrote about his own life.

Behind The Lens: Director Jim Yukich

It’s safe to say that with 250-300+ (more like 500) music videos to his credit, saying Jim Yukich is a great director is wildly understated. He’s accomplished a lot more as well, directing 1500+ episodes of “Chelsea Lately” over 7.5 years, over 60 episodes of ET over 6 months, plus 2 feature films. Add in his numerous awards, and he’s truly a force to be reckoned with.



We spoke for nearly two hours over a couple days, and with such an interesting, well-informed subject, it felt like 5 minutes. He was so gracious and kind, and answered every question, and then some. Rather than write my views, I am printing his vivid and very articulate responses.




What was it that inspired you to enter the music and entertainment field? 




“The Beatles changed life as we know it and were what originally interested me in music. I played in bands since 5th grade… I still play with 2 different bands.



Somehow my family had a super 8mm camera and I always liked filming all our family...

Nina Blackwood: MTV In Her Own Words

“On Saturday, August 1, 1981, at 12:01 AM Eastern Time, MTV launched with the words “Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll,” spoken by John Lack, and played over footage of the first Space Shuttle launch countdown of Columbia (which took place earlier that year) and of the launch of Apollo 11.” And with those words, we entered a whole new era.



It was then that we were introduced to the five people who would shape and mold that blank canvas into what became the greatest social experiment of our generation. “Veejays” J.J. Jackson, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter, Martha Quinn and Nina Blackwood would soon become daily visitors to our respective homes, bringing us that “whole new world.”



In a follow-up to our blog with early MTV...

The Beatles: Get Back

After watching “Get Back” with the Beatles for 468 minutes, my first thought is I’m not entirely sure this couldn’t have been just a tad bit shorter. Not that I totally didn’t enjoy it and get fully immersed in the entire 3-part documentary, but some of it became a little redundant and tedious. Right around the 2-hour mark on each of the three parts, I started looking to see just how much longer this was going to drag on. That being said, I hated for it to end!



Because of “Let It Be,” the film patched together from the mountains of footage shot by director Michael Lindsay Hogg right after the Beatles broke...

Taylor Hawkins: The Show Must Go On

For the first time ever in my life, words have truly failed me. I have been trying to write this article since March 25 – the fateful day we lost Taylor Hawkins. What I wanted to express just simply would not come. But now – months later, I feel compelled to complete this – for Taylor, for his wife Alison, for his kids, and for Dave Grohl and the rest of the Foos. And always, for the fans!



Oliver Taylor Hawkins was born in Ft Worth, Texas, and moved to Laguna Beach, CA when he was only 4. Tay, as he was nicknamed, was your typical “California” boy, loving the sun, sand, and Pacific Ocean. Growing up in Orange County (the “O.C.”) gave Tay plenty of opportunity to discover who and what he wanted to be. “I was a fat, chubby, stupid kid...

The Five Best Animated Christmas Films/Shows

What are of the 5 Best Animated Christmas Films? As a kid, I think we all had favorites, and I think many of us will agree with this list. From the 60s – 90s, these are the ones we feel have best stood the test of time.



Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (the TV Special)Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a 1964 Christmas Special that first aired Sunday, December 6, 1964. The special was based on the Johnny Marks song Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and tells the story of how Rudolph became the...

Top Ten Christmas Movies, Which is Your Favorite?

Any list of “Top 10 Christmas Movies” tends to be subject to both cheers and derision as these compilations are inevitably driven by the reader (or writer’s) tastes. This one’s no different. I chose movies that I felt best portrayed the true meaning of Christmas, in one way or another.  I didn’t put these together in any sort of specific order, other than that in which they came to mind:



ELF: This movie is one of my “musts” every Holiday Season. The plot is simple, a man named Buddy, who was raised from infancy as one of Santa’s Elves, comes to NYC as an adult to find his biological father.  Hilarity ensues as he spreads Christmas cheer in a world full of cynics. This movie is heartwarming and focuses on the true meaning of the...

Battle of the Bands: When the Famous Fight

Being in a band can be so tough. When you’re writing songs, recording albums, touring the world, and doing it all with the same exact people day after day, relationships can become a little strained, to say the least. It’s like being in any family – you fight, you get mad, then you make up … most of the time.



Let’s start with the Rolling Stones, or more specifically the “Glimmer Twins” as Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are affectionately known. These two have obviously learned the art of “kiss and make up” pretty well, to withstand nearly 60 years together. From the 60s through today, the famed duo has had more than their fair share of differences, even doing solo albums during band breaks. In 2010, Richards decided to publish his...

<strong>The Byrds:</strong> Turn, Turn, Turn

Turn, Turn, The Byrds were a California-based rock band in the 60s. The original (but very short-lived) lineup of the band consisted of Jim (Roger) McGuinn (lead guitar, vocals), Gene Clark (tambourine, vocals), David Crosby (rhythm guitar, vocals), Chris Hillman (bass guitar, vocals), and Michael Clarke (drums). In fact, Jim (Roger) McGuinn was the only member who remained consistently a part of the band.



The Byrds are considered by critics to be among the most influential rock acts of their era, even though their time as a “popular group” only lasted for a short period in the mid-60s and very early 70s. At one point, the band were even cited as being an inspiration to The Beatles who were...
