Heard this old tune again, today. Easily one of my all-time favorites. It is hard to believe Jackson Browne wrote this soulful song when he was only 16 years of age.

Here he is, with David Lindley, at an outdoor concert in 2015.

In these uncertain times, what “keytar” fan among us can’t benefit from a little Funkytown.

Ah… how I long for those carefree 1980s, when all we had to worry about was disco-deprivation-syndrome and an impending “nuclear winter.”

We’ve all done this: We’re watching a movie and we ask ourselves, “Where have I seen this actor?”

Viewing an interesting BBC WWII docudrama, while trying to burn off calories on an exercise bike, I wondered where I had seen (or rather heard) the lead actor, Eddie Izzard. But then, just as I was breathlessly passing the last of my Tour de France competitors, I remembered. He was, of course, the amazing Mr. Kite from the Beatles tribute movie, Across the Universe.

If you have not seen it, below is a bizarre (though entertaining) 3-minute clip from movie.
