Richard Dawson RIP

Ding. Ding. We have todays winner.

Making Babies: Stumbling into Motherhood by Anne Enright. Interestingly starts on reproduction fears by discussing American alien abduction stories (aliens always male, those probed overwhelming female) and a certain Sigourney Weaver character. "If Kafka had been a woman, then Gregor Samsa would not have turned into an insect, he would not have had to. Gregor would be Gretel and she would wake up one morning pregnant."

I'm in awe of this construction. Stereo would have been cool though.

About 5% of that sounds great.

Very cool. Thanks for the reminder. Forgot that earlier. Can't get enough of The Band lately.

Had car window replaced, rescued neighbors cat, played with ElusiveDiscs website for an hour, went on three walks with daughter, hardly thought of work, and now waiting for chocolate chip cookies to cool.

Everything you could want from a pilot right? There are shockingly few non-great episodes ahead of you.

Thanks Dusty. Will check them out. Watched Goodbye Yellow Brick Road this morning. Not sure if all episodes are on Netflix (depending on your device the search results are limited), but here's a breakdown from Wikipedia... The albums that have been covered are:[3] The Band - The Band (1969) Black Sabbath - Paranoid (1970) Phil Collins - Face Value (1981) Cream - Disraeli Gears (1967) Deep Purple - Machine Head (see Classic Albums: Deep Purple - The Making of Machine Head) (1972) Def Leppard - Hysteria (1987) The Doors - The Doors (1967) Duran Duran - Rio (1982) Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (1977) Peter Gabriel - So (1986) Grateful Dead - Anthem of the Sun and American Beauty (see Anthem to Beauty) (1968/1970) The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladyland (1968) Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast (see Classic Albums: Iron Maiden – The Number of the Beast) (1982) Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt (Album) (1996) Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973) Judas Priest - British Steel (1980) John Lennon/The Plastic Ono Band - John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band (1970) Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell (1977) Metallica - Metallica ("The Black Album") (see Classic Albums: Metallica - Metallica) (1991) Motörhead - Ace of Spades (1980) Nirvana - Nevermind (see Classic Albums: Nirvana – Nevermind) (1991) Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Damn the Torpedoes (1979) Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon, (see Classic Albums: Pink Floyd - The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon) (1973) Elvis Presley - Elvis Presley (1956) Primal Scream - Screamadelica (1991) Queen - A Night at the Opera (1975) Lou Reed - Transformer (1972) Rush - 2112 and Moving Pictures (1976/1981) Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks (1977) Paul Simon - Graceland (1986) Simply Red - Stars (1991) Steely Dan - Aja (1977) U2 - The Joshua Tree (1987) The Wailers - Catch a Fire (1973) The Who - Who's Next (1971) Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life (1976) Frank Zappa - Apostrophe (') / Over-Nite Sensation (1974/1973)

I'm not sure how popular these were (looks like at least some ended up on VH1), but the BBC documentary series Classic Albums is on Netflix. Not the most exploratory, so if you're already well familiar with the backstory of each album they may be of limited use, but for everyone else they're definitely worth a try. Saw Rumours last week. Just finished The Band... [media=]
