After seeing the post last weekend at my brother in blogging Nathan Nothin's blogspot (see below right column link in blogroll), I knew I had to post something in memorial for this highly influential artist. As I was starting to take the bus downtown from the very first enclosed mall in the USA and from Junior High School was getting in the Uptown "McDonald's Punks" which is where they hung out and at Lake Harriet we all were at the upper balcony of the Uptown Theater one Saturday night for the midnight movie double header of 'Eraserhead" and 'Freaks" and were quite a rowdy bunch just discovering what it was like to be punk rock. Our neighborhood friend group had just introduced me to 'Blue Velvet" and later would watch Twin Peaks together along with the movies. That very first viewing of 'Blue Velvet" (also later 'River's Edge" by others but still very influential to me) really set the stage for our artistic tastes and aspirations to follow. For this post, like most of his movies, I most recently stream-captured on my Pinnacle device one of David Lynch’s later films from 1999 called "The Straight Story" so I thought I would share it. Also re-upped my Julee Cruise (soothing vocals from Twin Peaks that can help us all take the blow of his death) and Chris Isaak posts (did 'Wicked Game" hit tune from hit movie 'Wild At Heart"). Long live the master!

I posted many years ago the music of the film "The Lost Highway". Two weeks later the post was completely deleted. Two years ago I tried to re-upload the post. After a little while was deleted for a second time. If you ask me why, I don't know the answer. Stay well, stay Rock my friend.r
