Sister Rosetta Tharpe - Down By the Riverside

Bob Dylan tells us in his radio show to go to youtube to check out Sister Rosetta Tharpe, who traveled with other blues greats, like Muddy Waters, to England. She fucking rocks.

Roger Ebert on Nicolas Cage

"There are often lists of the great living male movie stars: De Niro, Nicholson and Pacino, usually. How often do you see the name of Nicolas Cage? He should always be up there. He's daring and fearless in his choice of roles, and unafraid to crawl out on a limb, saw it off and remain suspended in air. No one else can project inner trembling so effectively." Ebert adds, "He alway seems so earnest. However improbable his character, he never winks at the audience. He is committed to the character with every atom and plays him as if he were him."
