It was a blast putting this past month's posts together, and with the Twin Peaks blu-ray on the horizon I'm expecting more where these came from, at least one Peaks-related post a month for the rest of 2014.<br /><br />Also hoping people get a chance to check out my Lynch video essay which is my favorite thing I've posted this month.<br /><br />Thanks to both of you for the interest & enthusiasm.<br /><br />Btw Dan - will there be more Godard posts forthcoming, or was Masculin Feminin the last?Joel Bockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238338958380683893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917634143872972680.post-58260207196981922712014-06-30T23:02:23.035-05:002014-06-30T23:02:23.035-05:00Glad you enjoyed it!

I like his studio albums, but his concerts are something else. They aren't cheap but are worth the money at least once if that's ever possible.

I'm glad to hear that you're checking out Bruce's albums, though some of the songs work much better live. The run from Born to Run to Born in the USA is pretty amazing.
