HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Speedy Acquaye, Hirohiko Araki, the 1969 debut of Blind Faith, Beryl Booker, Gwendolyn Brooks, Royce Campbell (Funk Brothers), THE JOHNNY CASH SHOW 1969 TV debut, Georgiana Cavendish, the great Johnny Clegg, Silas Roy Crain (Soul Stirrers), George Ezra, Tal Farlow, William Forsythe, Gordon Gano, Paul Gauguin, Nikki Giovanni, Juan Luis Guerra, Damien Hirst, Nihad Hrustanbegović, Tommy James & The Shondells 1969 “Crystal Blue Persuason” single, Mickey Jones (Man), Tom Jones (great to have met you), Paddy McAloon (Prefab Sprout), Dave Navarro, Liam Neeson, Ken Osmond, Prince, Jack Ryland (3 Dog Night), George Szell, Jessica Tandy, Karl Urban, Clarence White, and the legendary, consummate entertainer, comedian, singer, and actor, Dean Martin. In the late 1940s he broke out in a hugely successful comedy duo with Jerry Lewis, then was seared into public conciousness with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis, Jr. in The Rat Pack. My respect for Dino grew around his musical choices and catalogue of material. I do several covers of his songs (especially in my care home set) and my original song “Somebody Loves You (Like Dino Said)” has a direct refraction on Dean’s “You’re Nobody Till Somebody Loves You.” In 1955 he had a #1 hit with the folk-doo wop song “Memories Are Made of This.” It became a theme for a book written by his daughter Deana, a singer in her own right whose career intersected with The Monkees and Davy Jones (they also dated back in the day), and there was a phase where she’d sit in on our gigs + she sang with us at Davy’s 2012 New York memorial and a Monkees Convention in 2013. Davy was also close friends with Dino Martin (of Dino Desi & Billy), and when they weren’t driving old army tanks around in the desert, they played pool with Dean at Dean’s home. Davy was quite a comedy quipster, and he often said, “It’s OK to steal my jokes. I just stole them from someone else.” One of his “someone else” sources was Dean Martin. 

“Memories Are Made of This” was written by Richard Dehr, Terry Gilkyson, and Frank Miller—as The Easy Riders, they provided the vocal harmonies on Dean’s version. After the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, the song was adapted into the "Honvágy-dal" ('The Song of Homesickness”) and used as an unofficial anthem for refugees scattered around the world. Recorded by Ida Boros, it became a cultural phenomenon and a sign of protest against the communist government. The standard English version has been covered countless times (notably by Little Richard, Johnny Cash, and Cliff Richard & The Shadows), and here’s how I do it in my assisted living home set. Meanwhile, HB Dino—thank you for the hours of humor and song you left us.

Human Recall Announcement

— By Evan Waite & River Clegg | July 25, 2024

For Immediate Release

The Creator is announcing a recall of approximately 8.1 billion Homo sapiens because of health issues, safety concerns, and the annoying way some of them chew. These mammals were erroneously delivered to Earth with faulty brain wiring that makes them prone to violent outbursts, racially motivated hatred, and unjustifiably confident karaoke performances.

The defects go well beyond human minds, however. The Almighty admits that the recalled species has countless design flaws, including:

A big, dumb head.

Arms that hang down like sausage links.

Knees that resemble bruised grapefruits.

Genitals that make no sense at all.

Only two nostrils when a third would have been way cooler.

“I deeply regret the errors that went into the manufacturing of these bipeds,” the Supreme Being said. “We take pride in our work here at Heavenly Solutions, L.L.C., and vow to do better in the future.”

Humans have been a failure on virtually every level, according to the Divine One. Only eleven per cent of them trim their toenails with any regularity. Also, they accept easily disprovable information as long as it corresponds to their existing beliefs—especially if that information comes from a guy selling unregulated testosterone pills with a visibly aroused ox on the label.

As for the errors that went into the manufacture of these higher primates, the Almighty blames a cascading series of oversights. First off, there’s Frank. Frank is the quality-control angel whose job it is to weed out the sociopaths in each shipment. Unfortunately, Frank’s mother had shingles when humans were coming off the assembly line, so he was out that day.

But the fact that Frank’s mother got shingles in the first place caused several other angels to go on strike. Apparently, they thought that angels couldn’t get sick—a misguided belief that the Heavenly Father has deemed “wackadoo.” This angel strike led to the formation of a labor union whose legitimacy the Prime Mover still refuses to acknowledge, and now five Organism Development Plants have been shuttered, dashing any hope that Earth would soon see its first centaur.

While this recall should have come several hundred thousand years sooner—when the species discovered fire and instantly all became pyros—the Creator confesses that humans have turned out worse than even He anticipated. They invented nuclear weapons. They carried out mass deforestation. They left their stupid flag on the moon. “I now see that I should have trusted my first instinct,” the Omnipotent One admitted, “which was to pull the plug on the hominid project as soon as I realized that their ears should actually be on their chests so that they could hear forward.”

The Creator stresses that the recall only applies to humans, and that He fully stands behind all other life-forms, including newts, palm trees, gorillas, and those frogs which are also drugs. Furthermore, He is fully aware that this recall may cause confusion among other species, like lobsters, who may wonder why no one is trapping them or slapping butter on their backs. Nevertheless, the Great Deity maintains that this is what’s required to eradicate the clothed brutes who competitively chug liquid that makes them crash their cars.

The Absolute Being has issued strict instructions for how other species should react if they encounter a human before the recall takes effect. Bears should maul; eels should bite; hippos should stomp in as grisly a manner as possible. As a bonus, the Creator would like to note, expired humans can be returned to the Earth in exchange for nutrients that support more worthwhile beings. Worms, for instance. ♦

THE MOULINE JACKET

The Ital­ian fash­ion brand Mau­r­izio Bal­das­sari was founded in the beau­ti­ful and af­flu­ent dis­trict of Brera, steeped in the fash­ion­able and cul­tural his­tory of Milan. This rich her­itage has in­flu­enced the brand’s com­mit­ment to using high-​​quality ma­te­ri­als and craft­ing el­e­gant, well-​​balanced de­signs.

In this week’s look, we in­tro­duce the brand’s mouline jacket, here crafted using a cream-​white cotton-​viscose blend called sum­mer mouline. The mixed fi­bres give the jacket a dry han­dle and along with the flex­i­ble knit add breatha­bil­ity. It’s a per­fect ca­sual al­ter­na­tive to the more for­mal blazer for an in­ti­mate din­ner party or sum­mer cel­e­bra­tion.

The jacket is com­bined with a light beige long-​sleeve polo shirt from Fedeli, made of a cotton-​linen mix, a pair of nat­ural beige selvedge jeans from Tela Gen­ova and a pair of un­lined suede boots from As­tor­flex. The look is com­pleted with a pair of sun­glasses from The Be­spoke Dudes and a cot­ton can­vas tote bag from Frank Clegg.

A Bespoke Tailor On Why You Shouldn’t Wear Shoulder Bags or Backpacks with Suits

If you walk through any downtown business center nowadays, you’re more likely to see men in suits wearing backpacks than carrying briefcases. And it’s not just young interns, but also senior executives. As part of the general casualization of American dress, backpacks have replaced traditional bags. If briefcases are still used, they’re typically softer leather ones instead of the hard-sided designs favored a generation ago. 

We here at Put This On love backpacks, and use them ourselves, but they look awful with tailored clothing. Aside from the jarring combination, there’s also the damage you can put into your suit. I recently chatted with Edwin Deboise, founder and cutter behind the bespoke tailoring firm Steed, about the issue. He said the shoulder construction is likely to hold up fine, but the rest of the jacket may not. 

"We use handmade wadding for our shoulders, but on many ready-to-wear suits, you’ll find a sponge-like material,” he says. “It’s pretty robust and will probably hold its shape, even if you sling a backpack across it. It’s really more about what happens to the cloth. If you throw a heavy bag across your shoulders, there’s naturally going to be a lot of rubbing against the material as you walk. For finer fabrics, such as wool flannel, you’ll eventually get a bit of burring. I really don’t recommend it.” 

If you’ve made the effort to wear a nice suit, just carry a briefcase. Some are so sleek and minimally designed, they look inconspicuous anyway, even in the most casual of offices. See companies such as Frank Clegg Leatherworks and Linjer, who make softer leather bags that look a bit more easygoing than their stiffer, bridle leather counterparts (although, those are nice too). We have a full roundup of quality briefcase options here.
