The World of Jim Henson


Documentary from 1994 celebrating the life and work of Muppets Creator and legendary puppeteer, Jim Henson.



Where having a good heart is the most important thing one can have. Idealism towards a better, just, and also a fun, world is a great thing and should never be lost. There are many lessons to be learnt from this documentary.

SPFX: The Empire Strikes Back (1980 TV Doco)


"SP FX: The Empire Strikes Back" was a television documentary special which originally aired on CBS on September 22, 1980 in the United States.



A much watched and excellent Special Effects documentary. However, this doco is more than just a run through of SPFX, it really zeros in on what it means to be captivated by imaginative sci-fi movie making. Essential viewing. Great.

Soundtrack suite from "Fright Night Part 2" (1988)


This is a soundtrack suite with music from the film "Fright Night Part 2" (1988) composed by Brad Fiedel (Terminator, Terminator 2, True Lies, The Serpent and the Rainbow).
This soundtrack was never released, the music in this vídeo was recorded directly from the movie (including dialogue and sound effects).
I hope this score gets properly released someday

Savanna Silver Band - Just Remember




wow ... from 1977. Sounds very modern (or is modern music very retro?). A spacey-dreamy track .... reminds me of Roxy Music ... this song could have easily run for another 2-3 minutes with the instrumentals ...

Mercury Rev, Holes, live at the Bowlie Weekender 1999




... how does that old song go .... ?

An epic spaced-out track with sadness. I prefer the live version here to the album version. I had a previous post that featured a performance in Austin Texas but the hosting video has been taken down. This is the replacement.

Leonard Nimoy Tribute


Perhaps the best Pirate Movie ever made, full of ideals, featuring ideas about logic, deception, self sacrific, friendship, with Leonard Nimoy as Spock. I put up this short clip in tribute to Nimoy because it has a favourite quote (near 6:01) ... "He is intelligent but not experienced. His pattern indicates two dimensional thinking."



Also, Nimoy was host of one of my favourite TV documentary shows ... In Search Of ..
(this clip features the excellent original theme)



He will be missed but not forgotten!
