THE BEST SCENE FROM LETHAL WEAPON

I used to think it was the torture sequence where Al Leong sponges Mel Gibson. Well after realising that every time its on TV I always miss the first scene that introduces Riggs. It has everything. Mel taking coke, Christmas trees, 3 Stooges impression, some swearing and it also introduces Rigg's trademark roll-over, strafing shooting stance. Never used again, never bettered.

Its the quintessential buddy/cop movie. Influenced Tango & Cash and provided Graf Orlock with a sweet sample. Mel Gibson and Danny Glover had the chemistry. It was wasted somewhat over time as the follow ups piled up and they descended into daft action/comedies and the age rating dropped. They tried the same formula again much later on, minus Mel Gibson and including fishing. It didn't work really.
So in honour of how much I like this film I have got hold of a link to the soundtrack. Micheal Kamen, Eric Clapton and David Sanborn succeeded in creating one of the best lonely drinking albums I have ever heard. I have often got drunk at home on my own lsitening to this. The addition of other people sort of spoils it so its best you get hammered on your own while listening to this one.

I'm Getting To Old For This Shit

Honestly, it is the best music for getting drunk on your own. It might sound a bit depressing but its so good. Just keep repeating to yourself..."I'm getting to old for this shit".

Clocked In, Punched Out

Its been a very tiring few weeks. I ain't updated cause no one really reads this. Been working and living life for what little enjoyment it is possible to achieve.
Anyhow I get to play with Melt Banana soon. Which is better than you full stop.

So go and enjoy the best website around at the moment.....

UNCYCLOPEDIA

And download this and listen to it....

Neil Young - Dead Man OST

Hands down Jim Jarmusch's best film. Johnny Depp plays an accidental outlaw in this run-down, backwoods town set in the old west. But it is so much more than that.
Neil Young recorded this soundtrack while alone in a studio, surrounded by instruments and watching the film, he just palyed and threw notes in when he reckoned was the right point. Superb.
