Henry Cragg’s Wonder People: “Starsky & Hutch Syndrome”
I digitized this from a VHS tape awhile back but don’t think I ever posted it (and when you watch it, you’ll see why!) One of the many highlights of my 1995 semester exchange to York England while in undergrad was taking a Film Production class (which happened to be taught by a guy who […]
Music Monday – “Joan went east/Then she went west/I stayed right here in the middle/That’s where I liked it the best”

Music Monday – “You could have your choice of men/But I could never love again/I’m begging you/Please don’t take my man”

September 11, 2001 as it happened on CNN – 8:40am to 10:11am
I’m pretty sure I have most of this on a VHS tape somewhere but nice to have it online for easy access and archival purposes…
