New News - Latest Edition of The Word Out Now
If you're reading the print off the new issue, here's a few ways you can follow it up via the miracle of You Tube:
* Intrigued by the 1958 picture of every face in jazz? Here's the introduction to Jean Bach's documentary about the occasion.
* The trailer for Brad Pitt's film about the assassination of Jesse James calls for him to smoulder.
* The trailer for Daniel Day Lewis's film "There Will Be Blood" demands that he acts. Oh, there's loads of acting.
* From their new album "Do You Like Rock Music?", this is British Sea Power doing "Waving Flags". The rumour that their next album is going to be called "Scouting For Boys" refuses to die.
* Cat Power's new album "Jukebox", as reviewed by Andrew Collins, is not out yet. If you look here you can wait while she finishes it.
* Tom Petty couldn't afford Martin Scorsese but he managed to get Peter Bogdanovich to direct his feature-length history "Running Down A Dream". Very good it is too. Here's the trailer.
* Down at the digital end of the office we're digging Yasmin Levy. Here she is doing "Irme Kero", the song on our CD, on breakfast TV in Holland.
* The last track on this month's CD is Blind Willie Johnson's "Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground". Here's what Ry Cooder did with it in the opening of "Paris Texas".
And this is the story of how they sent it into space.
