VIC Sure Knows What He’s Doing, That’s A Big FO SHO!
I’m In Agreement With Him Totally On This One!!!

VIC'S MOVIE DEN

No 5 –

The Blues Brothers

The Mall chase and the absolutely insane Chicago car chase is one of, if not,  the highlight of this iconic
comedy from John Landis.

(Directed John Landis)

No 4 –

Smokey and the Bandit

Who would of thought delivering beer to Texarkana in a Black Trans Am would be downright funny, dangerous and completely wild? Burt Reynolds and Jackie Gleason make it so in this wildy popular movie that includes some of the best stunt driving caught on film. A classic through and through.

(Directed by Hal Needham)

No 3 –

Bullitt

Steve McQueen handles this car chase with absolute power, tension and plain old bad ass attitude. No CGI. No machine guns or explosions either. Just a simple car chase that is hypnotic and intense. And Steve McQueen looks so damn cool doing it too.

(Directed by Peter Yates)

My Morning Mixes: Well, Well, Well!

Posted by youjivinmeturkey on

Hey, Kids, Good Morning.

Well…

…It’s Been A While Since I’ve Done One Of These…

…But This Morning’s Walk Simply Felt Amazing…

(regardless of the light-misty-rainy conditions)

…And I Have My Rockin’ Jams To Thank For It!

🙂

I Kicked-Off My Walk This Morning With The Song…

“WELL, WELL“

by BETH HART And JOE BONAMASSA

…As It’s A Truly Wonderful Jam…

…And It Really Gets Me Going.

It Really REALLY Was The Perfect Song To Get The Morning Rollin’!

Her Voice And His Guitar Are A Match Made In Music Heaven, Fo SHO, My Peeps!

😀

Up Next…

…Thanks To Mr. MP3Player, And His Wonderful “Shuffle” Button, Was…

“A VIEW TO A KILL“

by DURAN DURAN

!!! !!!

I’ve Said It Before And I’ll Say It Again…

“A VIEW TO A KILL“

…Remains My Favorite JAMES BOND Theme Song EVER.

Period.

I Know What I Like.

I Know What I Love.

And I Love Me Some…

“A VIEW TO A KILL“

…And Some…

DURAN DURAN

!!!!!!!

😀

Following That One Was…

“EVERY YOU EVERY ME“

by PLACEBO

…Which Is Just A Totally Fun Jam From One Of My Favorite Bands!

😀   😀

Next Up Was The Classic Favorite…

“CRADLE OF LOVE“

by BILLY IDOL

Nothin’ But The Best Around Here, Eh?!

Eh, Indeed!!

(teehehe)

😉

So…

…What Do You Think Came-Up Next?!

Well…

…If You Said…

BLONDIE

…And Their Rockin’ Jam…

“ONE WAY OR ANOTHER“

…You’d Be VERY Correct!!!

😉

Mr. MP3Player Was Really Cranking-Out Some Major Tunage This Morning, Fo SHO, My Peeps!

It’s Been A Long Time Since I’d Listened To A Few Of These Personal Faves.

I Do So LOVE The “Shuffle” Button On This Thing.

I Get A Motley Mix Of Music That’s Better Than Any Mixed Tape Or CD One Could Create.

Period.

Next…

…He Kicked It Down A Notch With…

“ONLY THE LONELY“

by ROY ORBISON

…Which Is One I’ve Already Blogged About, I Love It So Much.

ROY ORBISON

…Is Hard To Top, That’s Fo SHO.

He’s My Favorite Favorite Solo-Artist Of ALL TIME.

Period Period.

His Music Sincerely Speaks To Me.

I Love His Voice.

I Love His Lyrics.

I Love Everything About His Music.

So This One Was A Totally Great Choice By The Player!!!

😀

For The Next Song, I Took Control.

I’d Really Been Wanting To Hear Some…

BILLY JOEL

…So I Thumbed Through My Tunes Until I Settled On…

“KEEPING THE FAITH“

…Which Just Felt Right.

It’s Very Middle-Of-The-Road In Regard To Its Pace And Rhythm.

Something I Could Just Cruise To For A Few Minutes.

It Really Was An Excellent Choice For What I Was Wanting To Do.

(pats self on the back)

GO ME!!!

😀

😉

Following Mr. JOEL, I Popped The “Shuffle” Button Again, And Mr. MP3Player Tossed-Out…

“MYSTIFY“

by INXS

…At Me, And I Was Hoofin’ It Once Again!

“MYSTIFY“

…Is Arguably The Best Jam By…

INXS

…Or At Least, To Me It Is.

If It’s Not The Best…

…I’d Still Call It My Favorite.

Such A Classic Jam, Fo SHO!

😀

I Decided To Cut My Wheels And Head On Home, At This Point.

I Knew I Had Time For At Least Two More Songs…

…And My Player Was Only Too Happy To Oblige.

He Went With…

“THE OLD MAN DOWN THE ROAD“

by JOHN FOGERTY

…Which Is An Excellent Choice For Walking Purposes.

It’s Got A Wonderful Beat That You Can Step To.

It’s One Of Those Songs That Make Walking A Pleasure.

🙂

For My Final Jam, I Selected It Myself.

I’d Been In The Mood To Hear It All Morning…

…And I KNEW It Was The Perfect Jam To Finish-Up With.

What Was It, You Ask?!

Well…

…It Was…

“STANDING OUTSIDE A BROKEN PHONE-BOOTH WITH MONEY IN MY HAND“

by PRIMITIVE RADIO GODS

!!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!! !!!

Now Tell Me That One’s Not The PERFECT JAM To Finish-Up With!

Go On…

…Tell Me!

😉

A Totally Wonderful Song To Cool Down With, My Peeps, Fo Flippin’ SHO!!!

😀     😀     😀

And That’s It, My Peeps.

T’Was A Great Walk.

As I Said, It Felt Amazing.

I Needed It Bad.

Always Helps To Clear The Mind A Bit.

Sometimes, That’s All Anyone Really Needs.

A Good Walk…

…With Some Great Tunes.

Sounds Like The Perfect Way To Spend A Morning, Doesn’t It!?

DOESN’T IT!?!

SURE IT DOES!!!
