Album Review: Various Artists - Americana Railroad

All of the songs are about trains and several of them employ harmonica or horns to ape locomotive whistles. But that’s where the similarities end and the tracks diverge on Americana Railroad.

The album was originally a limited release Record Store Day special and is now out on digital platforms.

The brainchild of co-producers Carla Olson and Saul Davis, the 19-song, various artists’ compilation goes all the way back to Elizabeth Cotten’s “Freight Train” by A.J. Haynes and travels as far forward as Dom Flemons’ original “Steel Pony Blues.”

Two versions of “Mystery Train,” the first by Rocky Burnett and Barry Goldberg, and the second by James Intveld and Goldberg, sum up the LP’s diversity, from fairly true to Elvis Presley’s famous take to a bluesy shuffle, respectively.

While there is no filler, the track-jumping can be districting as the music shifts from the hard country of Robert Rex Waller Jr. and Chip Kinman’s “The Conductor Wore Black” to the folk of John Fogerty and Mickey Raphael’s “City of New Orleans” to the hard rock of Gary Myrick’s “Train Kept A-Rollin’.”

But it’s worth the 75-minute journey because just when the Americana Railroad starts to grow tiresome, surprising gems like CSN’s “Marrakesh Express” (Dustbowl Revival) and Procol Harum’s “Whiskey Train” (Olson and Brian Ray) come in to earshot.

idea: assign the antebellum guys TM and current living presidents ( carter, clinton, bush ii, obama, trump ) as kpop positions ( https://www.themarysue.com/positions-in-kpop-explained/ )

Disclaimer: I don’t know Kpop at all so bear with me here as I work with the article

Leader: obviously in our antebellum guys ™️ group it’s Henry Clay. The article says that the role (if there is no other leader) is fulfilled by the oldest so Carter in the president group I guess.

Center: in our antebellum guys ™️ group this is Calhoun. No idea why but it’s him. For the presidents, I imagine it’s Clinton

Lead Vocalists: in our antebellum guys ™️ group Webster and Clay probably. In the president group Obama and Clinton

Dancers: in the president group, Bush and Obama. in our antebellum guys ™️ group Jackson and Van Buren

Visuals: I guess these old ass men Carter, Biden, and Trump are our visuals. Hayne in our antebellum guys ™️ group I guess

I’m really sorry

I’m so glad the Guillermo Del Toro Pinocchio movie is being received really well, because it was literally my most anticipated movie of the year! So here’s some fun facts about the crew, concept, and production that got me excited about this movie and that I think would excite much of tumblr as well:

-the screenplay was cowritten by Del Toro and Patrick McHale, creator of Over The Garden Wall and a writer on Adventure Time.

-the movie was codirected by Mark Gustasfon, who was the animation director of Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)

-the primary art/animation designers of this movie (production designer Curt Enderle, art director Robert DeSue, character designer Georgina Hayns, animation supervisor Brian Leif Hansen, and photography director Frank Passingham) previously worked on projects that include Coraline, the Corpse Bride, Paranorman, Isle of Dogs, Frankenweenie, Kubo, and Chicken Run.

-Besides Netflix, it was produced by the Henson company (always a good sign when you’re doing anything with puppets) and ShadowMachine, who have produced a lot of Adult Swim shows including Robot Chicken, Moral Orel, and Tuca and Bertie, as well as the Netflix original BoJack Horseman.

-Del Toro was inspired to make this adaptation due to the similarities he’d always noticed between the original Pinocchio story and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Both are about a man-made character’s relationship with his father/creator, and his attempts to understand what it means to be human. This inspiration is why the film takes on a gothic feel at times.

-the movie is over 10 years in the making. Del Toro announced the project in 2008 and production began in 2012, but it went into development hell and no further updates were made for several years. Del Toro has described it as his passion project, saying "I've wanted to make this movie for as long as I can remember.”

-the backdrop of Mussolini’s Italy was intended to show how Pinnochio was able to find his own humanity and will in a time where everyone else was acting like a blindly obedient puppet. Del Toro wanted to deviate from the original book’s themes of obeying authority by making his Pinocchio virtuous for questioning the rules and forging his own set of morals. (Also if you know anything about Del Toro, the guy likes to dunk on fascism.)

-Del Toro didn’t feel the need to have Pinocchio become flesh-and-blood at the end of the movie, saying all you need to be a real human is to behave like one.

I was lucky enough to see this movie in 35 mm in a movie theatre on Thanksgiving weekend. If there are any movie theatre showings near you and you’re in a position to be able to attend them, I would totally recommend it especially if you can go with loved ones. It was a gorgeous, heartwarming, and magical movie to experience on a big screen and perfect for the late fall/winter holiday season.
