The Clash - Time Is Tight

Topper Headon, the drummer for the Clash for most of their career, loved soul music.

He pushed the band, a bit, into that direction. 

One of the recordings that resulted from that push was their cover of Booker T and the MGs' "Time is Tight."

Johnny Cash ~ 'Forty Shades of Green' (Live)

Almost two months ago, Mrs. Marathon Pundit and I visited Ireland. In Bushmills, in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, we saw a Johnny Cash street banner, with the words "Forty Shades of Green."

Of course, I had to investigate. In 1961, as the B-side to "The Rebel–Johnny Yuma," The Man in Black released this song. Written by Cash in Ireland, it's about the Emerald Isle.

Here is The Man in Green, in Ireland, in 1993, with June Carter at his side and the audience singing along.

Lefties Losing It: Undercover reporter’s shock findings at No Kings protest

Undercover reporter Ami Horowitz deserves a Pulitzer Prize for learning that the No Kings protesters are in fact looking to overthrow "the system."

He won't get one because leftists hand out these awards.

Mark Dice: Democrats meltdown over "King Trump" at weekend protests across the country

If Donald Trump really was a king, or better yet, a tyrant, he would not have allowed these No Kings rallies to take place.

Despite the media cheering the spectacle on, Saturday's marches were just an agitprop tantrum.

Van Morrison - Remembering Now (Official Visualiser)

On Friday Van Morrison, who turns 80 in August, released his 47th studio album, Remembering Now.

But this is the Belfast Cowboy's first collection of original music since 2022's anti-lockdown masterpiece, What's It Gonna Take.

Morrison in a few tunes on this new album looks back at his long career as well as his youth in Northern Ireland. 

The title track is one of those songs.

On a related note, two legendary performers who also began their careers in the 1960s, Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys and Sly Stone of Sly and the Family Stone, passed away this week. 

Rest in peace.

Bob Dylan - Someday Baby (Official Audio)

Kast year's movie, A Complete Unknown, starring Timothée Chalamet, gives a stirring account of Bob Dylan's early career up into his mid-1960s artistic turn to electric music. 

But Dylan, who is still an active artist, continued to produce groundbreaking music for decades--although there have been many notable failures, particularly his Self Portrait album.

One of the notable highlights from Dylan's 21st century output was his Modern Times collection. 

Here's a standout track from that album, "Someday Baby."
