2/28/2020 Music Releases of Note

Well, last week's Ozzy album was excellent, it was nice to hear a variety of themes in the lyrics, such as the concept of extraterrestrial life (Scary Little Green Men), being faced with death, God and the afterlife (Holy For Tonight) and a callback stylistically to the first Black Sabbath album with heavy bass and Ozzy playing harmonica (Eat Me).  Also, last year's hit "Take What You Want From Me" with Post Malone and Travis Scott returns, making this quite a good release.

Due to the nature of Spotify, there are a pair of singles that haven't been shuffled to the top yet, a single with Noah Cyrus as the guest voice, and a new single from a punk band from Seattle I saw four years ago, The Pink Slips.  What's fun about The Pink Slips is their lead singer is also a famous musician's daughter, in this case, Grace McKagan, daughter of bassist Duff McKagan, so it all ties together.

This week has two major releases I'm looking forward to and both of them are Southern Rock, coincidentally enough.

The Allman Brothers Band-Trouble No More (50th Anniversary Edition): This appears to be a box set of various Allman Brothers tracks throughout the last 50 years, starting with tracks from their first release like "Whipping Post," featuring songs from their 1971 Fillmore East concerts, the instrumental "Jessica," songs from their late 1980s revival like "Gambler's Roll" and a live version of "Low Down Dirty Mean" (fun fact, this era of the band was the era I first learned about, because Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus mentioned spending time with keyboardist Johnny Neel in their autobiographies, and bassist Allen Woody (yes, that is his name) played on Billy Ray's cover of "I Walk The Line"), continuing to presumably their last live performance in 2014.

The Outlaws-Dixie Highway: The Outlaws were a 70s Southern Rock Band famous for the songs "There Goes Another Love Song" and "Green Grass and High Tides."  Their lead guitarist, Hughie Thomasson, played in Lynyrd Skynyrd from 1996 to 2007, when he started this new version of the band.  Shortly after, though, he passed on, meaning this will not have any of the original members.  However, it does have Thomasson's blessing, and with Skynyrd retiring and the recent deaths of Gregg Allman and Tom Petty, the new Outlaws have a good, defiant declaration with their first single: "Southern Rock Will Never Die."

Thoughts From Fire Emblem; Three Houses

This is Edelgard, the House leader of the House I chose to teach, the Black Eagles, and the future Empress of the Adrestian Empire.  She is talking about the soldiers of a rebel army the Black Eagles were ordered by the monastery to fight, which were led by a Lord who sought vengeance over the Church of Seiros executing his son.  As soon as I found out that fact in game, I wasn't so keen on putting my students into this battle.

It was common not long after the game's release to think of Edelgard as a villain for opposing a Church, however, Rhea, who leads this Church, almost seems to revel in shows of force as a way to "show those who would oppose us such opposition is futile."  Also, I cannot endorse a religious organization that performs executions, it reminds me too much of Pope Leo attempting to kill Martin Luther or the current US administration declaring itself Holy, flawless and the incarnation of God while dehumanizing Hispanics, the LGBTQ+ community and Muslims.  Edelgard, though, seems to know the danger of too much power in too few hands.

Also, I voted for Mayor Pete in the primary.

Good films for Lent

Well, it's Fat Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday, when everyone indulges as much they can in whatever they plan to give up for the next 40 days.  I must confess, when people ask me "what are you giving up for Lent?" I tense up a bit.  I do have unhealthy habits, but I remember one Lent I gave up Skittles and Starbursts and afterward, I didn't want to go back to eating them.  Suppose I give up a website that gives me issues from time to time and stop missing it over the next 40 days, do I just say after Easter to my peers there "Sorry, guys, my life is better without you, it just took having a significant break for me to realize this, Bye?"


However, when I struggled with the concept of giving something up and the anxious potential ramifications, my Pastor at my old Church, Bellingham Covenant, had a bit of wisdom.  "More than giving something up, you should put something on."  Giving up something can be a hollow, empty ritual if we forget we're giving up things so we can better focus on God.  Last year, during the Lenten season, I saw three films that helped me feel Lent more.


-Godspell-I already have praised this film quite a bit on this blog, but seeing it during Holy Week last week put it into perspective.  The Disciples are joyous in their serene fields, playing with each other.  It reminds me of part of the opening of the Led Zeppelin concert film "The Song Remains The Same," where Robert Plant and his wife are smiling as they watch their children play on their farm.  It's lighthearted, innocent and makes you smile.  Then you get to Jerusalem.  Jerusalem is depicted as a junkyard, it doesn't look clean, safe or like anywhere you should be at night.  And yet, they must.  Jesus must do what God needs him to do.  He is crucified, agony ripping through all of his disciples.  After he has passed, they gather his body, but they don't mourn.  In defiance, they run through the streets, carrying his body, declaring "Prepare Ye The Way Of The Lord!"  Death didn't win after all.


-The Shack-I read the book when it came out and it put so much into perspective at a time when I desperately needed it.  I was incredibly excited to hear of the movie adaption in the middle part of last decade and was amazed that they showed so many plot points I remembered.  I always will remember the scene of the main character in the cave on the seat of judgment, being asked to judge an abused small boy.
"I can't."
"You already have, that boy is your father."
I also love that the actor and actresses for the Trinity looked like what I imagined from the book's description and they used the term "I am ESPECIALLY fond of him/her!"  In these days, we hear way too much about God's wrath.  The New Testament wouldn't exist if God's Love wasn't more powerful.


-Wonder Woman-Okay, this may seem like a weird choice to some, but hear me out.  I actually re-watched this last Lent and after (SPOILERS) Diane has killed the German General she thought was Ares, only for the gas to kill the entire village of civilians she had just rescued, she is visited by Ares, the god of war.  Ares details how he no longer plays an active role in conflict, he merely gives humans the formulas, blueprints and tools with which to build weapons and plans to let humanity's mistrust of each other take it from there.  He then shows Wonder Woman a vision of a world without humans, total paradise with trees blossoming.  Wonder Woman shakes it off, violence is no means to achieve this end  The two get into a fantastic battle with tanks being tossed like toys and lots of pyrotechnics.  Steve Trevor, Wonder Woman's love interest, hands her his match, trying to tell her something she can't hear due to a recent nearby explosion.  Steve launches the plane with all the gas bombs on it, taking out both him and the entire arsenal, keeping any more Allies from being exposed.  Due to missing the information, Wonder Woman goes on the warpath against Ares, which pleases him, him hoping Wonder Woman will grow in rage and kill them all.  However, Wonder Woman recalls what Steve said, "I can save today, but you can save tomorrow."  Wonder Woman calms down and states while Ares is right that humanity is cold and destructive, they are so much more than that, full of kindness, compassion and the desire for peace.  She finishes Ares, ending World War I.  The whole sequence, when I watched it by myself, reminded me heavily of the temptation in the Wilderness.  An evil figure asks a God (demigoddess in Wonder Woman's case) to not do what is right, be selfish and listen to their own impulses.  They refuse, ultimately banishing the figure from their presence.


This year, I'm also going to try to help out every Wednesday at the Vespers service.  Hope you have a safe Lenten season.

The Exact Listing of My first Party playlist

I decided to look back at my older "Party Rock" playlists, specifically, the first one, and list its contents as a retrospective for hitting 100 of these.  The music holds up well, though I've had Spotify for about 11 months now, so not much has changed, and I only didn't recognize one song.  I mostly use Spotify to discover new music I've never heard before and see what's worth buying or if something would be a good gift for someone I know.

A book called "The Story of My Life."

Last month, my Mom got me this book called "The Story of my life" and I really love reading and following the prompts.  I don't often get around to it, but I like reminiscing and seeing what I remember, like I remember Mom as always giving me the Thomas the Tank Engine and Chip N Dale VHS tapes, baking and always being scared if I started crying or being upset.  One prompt I really liked was "what happened in history the year you were born?"  I tapped my own memories of stuff people said, things I'd seen written, and added some things from Wikipedia, most of which were just old memories that had been buried.


The Berlin Wall Fell as Germany reunited, heralding the soon collapse of Communism in Europe.


Motley Crue, Ozzy Osbourne and Bon Jovi took part in the Moscow Music Peace Festival.  Motley Crue also released the Dr. Feelgood album and with it, their concert-ending anthem “Kickstart My Heart.”


Ozzy Osbourne went on his first tour with guitarist Zakk Wylde.  The tour also features Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler.


Students protest in Beijing, leading to the murders in Tiananmen Square.


Ken Griffey Jr. debuted for the Seattle Mariners, who also traded for 6’10” left-handed pitcher Randy Johnson, both of whom would lead the Mariners to their first playoff run six years later.


Hair band Enuff Z’nuff debuts and their first single, “New Thing,” hits #67 on the Billboard Hot 100, with their second single, “Fly High Michelle,” hitting #47.


Hair Metal band Warrant debuts, making a splash with “Down Boys” and “Heaven.”


Latin Pop singer Selena, played by Jennifer Lopez in her biopic, debuts.  Three years later, she becomes the namesake of a different pop singer.


Tim Burton’s movie “Batman” was released, featuring Danny Elfman making the score, Prince contributing the licensed music and performances by Michael Keaton as Batman and Jack Nicholson as Joker.  Elfman reuses his Batman theme in “Justice League” almost thirty years later, the film causes a rise in dark superhero films in the early half of the 1990s and Keaton goes on to play the Vulture in the MCU also almost thirty years later.


Alice Cooper returned to form with the “Trash” album, which featured songwriting from Desmond Child and Joan Jett, and guest musicians Aerosmith (except Brad Whitford, who doesn’t contribute for reasons unknown), Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.


“Field of Dreams” was released, I was born after my parents saw the movie.


After a five-year break, the Godzilla series returned to Japanese theatres with “Godzilla vs. Biollante.”  This film was scored by Koichi Sugiyama, famous for making the music for the Dragon Quest video game series, and introduced the character Miki Saegusa, played by Megumi Odaka in all of her appearances.  Odaka is only 17 when this film debuts, and according to Toho Kingdom, at this point in her life, hasn’t seen a Godzilla film before and is actually somewhat scared of the Godzilla suit when she first sees it.  However, befriending suit actor Kenpachiro Satsuma helps her grow into the role.  This film’s music also coaxed Akira Ifukube out of retirement by using his Godzilla theme as a rock song, which he “did not like!”


The Simpsons debut on TV.  Seinfeld’s Pilot also debuts.


Full House enters its Third Season, the last in which Jodie Sweetin has curly hair.


The World Series is interrupted by an Earthquake which rocks the Bay Area.  Both teams in that World Series are in the Bay Area (San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics), so play is held up for a significant amount of time.  This earthquake creates the basis for a Full House episode.  The Giants went on to win the World Series 4-0.


During a week in May, Billy Ray Cyrus undergoes a series of events that lead to the songs “Where’m I Gonna Live,” “She’s Not Crying Anymore” and “Some Gave All.”  This ends up landing him his first album deal later in his life.  (No, this isn’t stalker-dom, he told the audience at the show I was in attendance for and I remember.  Some of the details are also in his autobiography)


Super Mario Land is released for the Game Boy, introducing Princess Daisy, now a Super Smash Bros. fighter.


George Bush Sr. is sworn in as President.


Nirvana releases their debut album “Bleach,” containing the songs “School,” “About A Girl,” “Love Buzz” and “Negative Creep.”


Back to the Future part II is released.


Taylor Swift (pop singer/songwriter), Elizabeth Olsen (actress in Godzilla 2014 and as Scarlet Witch in the MCU), Corbin Bleu (actor/singer in High School Musical), Trace Cyrus (guitarist/frontman of Metro Station and older half-brother of Miley), Aly Michalka (Phil of the Future actress, singer in Aly & AJ), Bebe Rexha (pop singer), Brie Larson (actress as Captain Marvel and in Kong Skull Island), Michelle Wie (professional golfer) and Internet comedian Allison Pregler (I’m guessing on that last one, she referred to a 1978 Sesame Street special as airing when she was “Negative 11 years old”) were also all born.


The Heisei era begins in Japan with the death of Emperor Hirohito from old age.


Voyager 2 reaches Neptune.

Specially numbered "Party Rock" playlists

Shortly after I got spotify, I found I was hearing too many good classic rock/hard rock/heavy metal songs and didn't have a place to put them.  I had previously tried a pair of playlists called "Party," which was a list of music I'd like to DJ for people on the dancefloor, and created the party rock playlists in the process.  I have just reached 100.  In celebration, I'm going to look back at a little experiment I ran with the playlists in the last few months, making them themed.  Most of them are based on one year's worth of releases/performances, the first one was based on a decade, rather than one year, the 92 one is based around the general time period (a more accurate title would've been 91-92), the 89 one has music released and one in a movie from the year I was born, as well as a generous helping of my personal favorite songs, and 100 was strictly a "current favorites."
