DAILY CALL SHEET: AUGUST 23, 2019


Viy (1967) Russian tale of a young monk forced to sit vigil in the tomb of a deceased witch is simultaneously quaint and bat**** insane. TIL: Despite the perils facing religion in Russia, including anti-evangelization laws, 65% of the population still profess a belief in God.


Still Voices - Rat Pfink a Boo Boo (1966) "Our culture has filled our heads but emptied our hearts, stuffed our wallets but starved our wonder. It has fed our thirst for facts but not for meaning or mystery. It produces 'nice' people, not heroes." - Peter Kreeft


Dad Rock Daily: Mick Ronson - Slaughter on 10th Avenue (1974) Bowie's back-up band makes a Bowie-free album that, surprise, still sounds an awful lot like a Bowie album. Laudable Lyrics: Kind of wear love like a long lost crown, now I take pride in the way I behave.
