The first part is more traditional but by the time they get to the end of the clip, I just want to dance. It's too bad about the sound quality because the music is really interesting when you hear it on the DVD. It's a great Western/Japanese mix.
MAN that theme song from Exorcist always scare me
Hey Gomez!
Great work you and Ben Lurkin doing keeping the thread going!

Someone should write a song...
Interesting look at BBC news in 1970... hard to tell the difference from a Monty Python sketch in the intro piece.
Plant-Bonham - Interview - 1970
Interviewer asks them if they will be around in 8 years... 8, yes. 10, sadly no.
I hope you have all that code saved somewhere so you don’t have to re-enter it every time you post it.
I loved the original first few films of Zatoichi. The Beat Takeshi remake was questionable.
I just tonight came across the YouTube of the event. Isn’t it disgusting that that communist Pete Seeger was up there on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial performing for a U.S. president? They briefly flashed a shot of Obama singing along with them from his seat (”Your Land is OUR Land”).
Lovin the Auerbach and Hubbard clips!!
Hey, I want one of those too! The one I got for Christmas as a kid was just a red inflatable vinyl tube with a flashlight attached to the end. It lasted 1 1/2 sword fights :(
Glad you like them. The Patrick on drums is the drummer from My Morning Jacket.
Personally, I prefer Cross Canadian Ragweed’s cover of Wanna Rock-n-Roll, but there weren’t any I could find with good sound.
Eh, mostly I’m just amazed he is still alive. Folk singers must not party as hard as rock stars.
This guy is the best. His lightsabers are all custom and a little pricey. But, they’re battle ready and are customizable. It also takes quite some time to get it built -he has a real job.

Haven't heard that one in ages! Thanks!!
That is one of those songs I would fast forward over (cassette tape) after the first two minutes, but eventually learned to appreciate the full 10 minute version on long car trips!
Full screen recommended...
