Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with PAUL SIMON!

Johnny is old enough to remember when the great moral question of the day was whether or not it was ok to purchase Paul Simon's Graceland album because South African musicians were used. Paid proper wages for proper work the answer was yes and a true awakening of the situation there unfolded before the world's eyes. A truly important album, not just a popular or great one.

'The Boy in the Bubble' starting things off tonight.

You could pick any number of Paul Simon songs here. A plethora of choices. A basket of choices. A shitload really. Johnny is going back as far as the 80's for this fabulous song off the Graceland album, 'The Boy in the Bubble'

If anyone ever asks you what the 80's looked like, they looked like this video.

Know who's good? Paul Simon. That's right. Know what else is good? The song ''Kodachrome'

See this, you kids have no good idea what the fuckity fuck this even is. It's called a flash cube or a flash bulb. It caused blindness for five or so minutes if you looked at it but in the 60's and 70's pictures were impossible without them. More than likely the mind-wiping special effect in Men In Black was probably just one of these going off.

Kodachrome? Flash cubes.

Back in the day you could add artwork to your music in iTunes. The pictures were actually large and visible unlike today. Your favorite artists either live or in posed pictures popping up with songs was good stuff. Johnny well remembers the artwork for this song. Apologies to Reese Witherspoon.

'50 Ways to Leave Your Lover' getting the party started tonight.
