ANXIETY
The podcast opens by referencing a poignant moment in Truman Capote's Breakfast at Tiffany's. The character Holly Golightly makes a clear distinction between two types of emotional distress: "the blues" and "the mean reds."
• The Blues: Described as a mundane sadness that occurs when you are gaining weight or when it has been raining too long.

#PortlandME - #JazzAtTheMovies film series
"#WMPG’s Jazz At The Movies team are pleased to present our first film of the 2026 season, the documentary 'Music Pictures: #NewOrleans'.
"Beautifully shot and recorded, the film is a loving portrait of four Crescent City jazz, soul, and blues legends, and a celebration of 100 years of New Orleans musical history.
"Directed by New Orleans native filmmaker #BenChace, 'Music Pictures: New Orleans' is a vibrant documentary exploring the rich musical heritage of New Orleans. It showcases the city’s diverse musical landscape, from legendary #JazzClubs to lively street performances, highlighting the influences of #Creole, #AfricanAmerican, and #French cultures, and how historical events, like #MardiGras and #HurricaneKatrina, have shaped the city’s music scene. Through interviews with local musicians and historians, Music Pictures: New Orleans reveals music’s central role in the city’s cultural and social fabric.
"The film showcases four New Orleans music legends: Grammy-winning #IrmaThomas 'The Soul Queen of New Orleans' ; #BennyJonesSr., the leader and drummer of the world renowned #TremeBrassBand; guitarist #LittleFreddieKing, the 'Last King of the Blues'; and the pianist and educator, #EllisMarsalisJr., patriarch of the famed jazz family, in what would be his last concert before his death. Music Pictures: New Orleans follows each of the four artists, one by one, as they talk about their lives, rehearse, and record a new album in the studio in early 2020s. By combining vintage footage with live interviews and rare backstage access, this film provides a wonderful snapshot of New Orleans as the home for so much great American music, from #soul to #BrassBand to jazz and #TheBlues. What better way to get ready for the Mardi Gras season!"

It’s a long, close look at a half-century of doing the work, chasing the muse, and never settling for the easy answer. #theblues

The central cinematic thesis of #Sinners is that music is a mystical force that can be used either to heal or to harm. In this particular context the dichotomy goes from #gospel, by which one can commune with God, to #theblues, by which the guitar becomes a totem of the devil. #filmreview t.ly/NhXqa

to me, The Blues is a storytelling format... sort of like Sonnet or a Haiku, to use literary analogy. a layout, if you will, that is general enough to support a large variety of stories, expressions, narratives, feelings, rhythms #Blues #music #Americana #TheBlues

Painting of the Day. The Blues Band II
> > https://www.artcameroon.com/blues-band-2/
This monochrome all-blue acrylic painting of an African blues band is a wonder. Angu Walters usually paints from a broad palette but once in a while he limits himself to just one color and then makes magic with it.

Today on Re-Creative Mark and I talk to Spencer Evans. Spencer is a working musician based in Kingston, Ontario. He's joined us to talk about the enormous impact that Ray Charles has had on him as piano player and entertainer, not to mention the impact that Charles has had on the history of music in America and the world.

The Allman Brothers made it big in album rock circles in the early 70s with an an excellent, classic live rendition on their “Eat A Peach” album. Couldn’t have done it without the original from a decade before.
