Thanks Trey !
Keep hanging out with the 'music lovers'. I am discovering more great music this way than I ever did listening to the radio. There's an amazing resource here on BlueSky, even though engangement is less than Twitter (cesspool it has become). We can grow a great community that's Blu. ♥️🎵

#MusicHistory On this day 1980, Bob Marley & The Wailers released Uprising — the final studio album issued during Marley’s lifetime. Spiritual, defiant, and deeply rooted in Rastafarian belief, the album gave us “Could You Be Loved” and closed with the immortal “Redemption Song.”
#FilmHistory On this day 1994, Speed hit theaters & turned a city bus into one of the greatest action movie pressure cookers of all time. Keanu Reeves became a full-blown action star & Sandra Bullock became instantly unforgettable. It grossed $350-million on a $37-million budget. "Pop quiz hotshot!"
“What is a soul? It's like electricity — we don't really know what it is, but it's a force that can light a room.”

#MusicHistory On this day, 1985, Talking Heads released their 6th album, Little Creatures on Sire Records, their strange, bright, Americana-leaning masterpiece. Country textures, steel guitar, art-rock weirdness, & songs like “And She Was,” “Road to Nowhere,” “Stay Up Late" & “The Lady Don’t Mind".

#TVHistory On this day 2007, The Sopranos ended after 86 episodes with Tony at Holsten’s, Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” on the jukebox, and one of the most shocking cuts to black in TV history.
No final answer. No easy goodbye.
Just a song, a glance, and silence.
