On the playlist 12JUN2019…

Heard an interesting story about Radiohead not sure where I first heard it but it was all over by the time I thought about it. They had some working tapes of one of their members pirated and the perpetrators were holding the music ransom for some amount of money. So, the band decided to just release the stolen material publicly. I had heard of Radiohead but my only exposure to them was through the soundtrack to the modern Romeo + Juliet movie and their song "Talk Show Host".

I love that movie as it was the first time I really got Shakespeare. My daughter was reading Romeo and Juliet in school. I had showed her that movie forcing her to watch the first ten minutes when she first told me she would be doing it in school. She didn't get it. Later when she had read the play though she told me that they had watched it in class and she did get it. Since she read it in school my daughter has taken to calling me sir and every once in a while when I frustrate her she bites her thumb at me. 

So, on the playlist today is the soundtrack to Romeo + Juliet.
