live show filmed at the  Ryman Auditorium in 2006.
Neil with full Nashville band singing tunes from "prairie wind", "harvest moon" and "harvest" along with other classic tunes..

decided to play the dvd after listening to the classic "prairie wind" in the car this morning (to post tomorrow)

if you havent seen it, i urge you to do so,
this is what he does best, **sigh** only to realise all the crap he has released since this **sigh**

a masterpiece of a live show IMO  10/10

on Netflix...

the Wiki:  Ozark (TV series) - Wikipedia

brilliant series about a financial advisor getting unwittingly mixed up with a mexican cartel by laundering money for them..
a cat and mouse game of survival, deception and back room deals...

well worth a watch if you havent seen it.

season four is in two installments with seven 1x hour eposides in each installment.
first seven watched, awaiting the final seven episodes at some point this year...

great, great stuff IMO.

Jakob Dylan is the narrator, or facilitator, whichever you choose. Very serious fella that. It's about the heady days of Laurel Canyon, the confluence of talent at the time, and I'd been listening to CSN&Y so it followed nicely. JD and his cohorts on the right in the pic above recreate some of the songs and there are interviews with those on the left - some quite fascinating clips too. Gee - Michelle Phillips is something else! I'm going to sound like a real prude but she's shameless - wow.

Great for anyone who's interested in or familiar with these artists. Quite surprised that they remember as much as they seem to!

I agree with all of your choices. Have not seen The Great Escape??!!?? Another one I never tire of is Frankie and Johnny - the Al Pacino one. Scent of a Woman & The English Patient are not far behind. The Deer Hunter too! So many movies, so little time...

on Amazon Prime:

Wiki:  Old (film) - Wikipedia

thriller from the mind of M. Knight Shyamalan...
lots of mixed reviews when it was released so i waited until it came on my subscription service...


a group of people on holiday discover a sheltered beach where they start growing older by the hour.
unable to leave the beach due to supernatural powers and unexpected accidents they are all destined to age there at an astonishing rate and die.
huge twist at the end that i didnt see coming.

a bit slow in places but worth watching.

Rating:  3/5
