Quick diatribe: I’ve bought three different records made by supposed audiophile label Music on Vinyl over the years and each one has been a wreck. The latest is this wildly warped Stone Temple Pilots album, which sent my turntable’s needle flying (no easy thing to do on a linear table). Previously, years ago, I mail-ordered Guru’s Jazzmatazz Vol 1 and it had deep gouges in it when I unsealed it because it had been shoved into the sleeve at the plant with rough vinyl pebbles that proceeded to tear it up. A few years later, I picked up one of their Commitments soundtracks while in Germany; when I got back to the US, I discovered it skipped like a third-grader on the last day of school. So I gave them three chances against my better judgment. Never buying something on their label again.

Anyone Remember Maria Doyle Kennedy AKA Aunt Jocasta in The Commitments?

The Commitments is one of my all time favorite movies. If you haven’t seen it, run, don’t walk! And Maria is great in it. It will make you want to go have a pint at a pub in Ireland. Love.

Fond memories of #alanparker & family who were clients back in the early days. A member of the Chelsea Arts Club, I would see him quite often on the King’s road and he did many great films. Photo by & originally posted by #johnswannell : ���I took this photo of Sir Alan Parker a while back who is one of our great Directors (#bugsymalone #mississippiburning #thecommitments #midnightexpress #evita) we had dinner every now and again with Frank Lowe who gave Alan some of his breaks in the film business and Hugh Hudson ( #chariotsoffire ) he was a special man he had no ego just a massive talent and so versatile he was twice nominated for an Oscar and should be remembered alongside Alfred Hitchcock and David Lean as one of our great English Directors / Writers he will be missed. Rest In Peace Alan.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CDekLjDgy1-/?igshid=1u1cv085val6p

Alan Parker was one of those directors like Ridley Scott and Adrian Lyne whose films had a signature look combined with an emotional punch. Parker died over the weekend and our Movie Guy Ray looks back at his varied career at TheMovieGuys.net #TheMovieGuys #movies #films #hollywood #cinema #comedy #flicks #cinephile #filmbuff #filmmaking #AlanParker #TheCommitments #Birdy #MidnightExpress #AngelHeart #MississippiBurning #Fame #ShoottheMoon https://www.instagram.com/p/CDeam5llevK/?igshid=16nyrnlfqfs8r

Watching one of my favorite movies on Plex before I change the oil in the CR-V. 1991’s “The Commitments.” Few movies embody the exuberance of music as Alan Parker’s ode to Irish soul. #thecommitments #soulmusic (at Bishop, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0R3NUEnFtS/?igshid=9vbcq92wjjcw
