This is what’s been playing on the virtual turntable this morning. I came in, noticed that Marty had sent the link to someone, went to play it, and H.o.p. heard and has wanted to hear multiple times since.
James Brown & Pavarotti.
UNENDING WONDERS OF A SUBATOMIC WORLD is an angst-ridden, slap-happy, run if you can't leave 'em laughing investigation on the questions of mad coincidence and improbable meanings that spin around the Great Wheel as it bumps along toward whatever end has captured its fancy. And while along for the ride, let's at least have some fun with it in a Ferrari and Italian sunglasses that lend operatic vistas, with a woman running from impending nuptials and an unfolding history in soft-core surrealist art porn, her working homeless friend who is grieving the loss of her 1972 Impala, a band by the name of Orange Joe playing behind a female Elvis impersonator, a golf shop owner who wants something more in life than a pyramid-scheming wife and trysts at the Oasis with his accountant, and reflections on America the Beautiful which killed off its buffalo and fenced up its First Nations peoples all so Faith Hazy and Chance Hope would be able to one day pursue pending dreams from Valentine, Georgia to Little America, fueled by novelty, convenience, and Faith's patriotic determination to be a good consumer on someone else's bankroll. |
