Jaco Pastorius played briefly on the 1976 horror film Bloodstalkers

Jaco played briefly on the 1976 horror film Bloodstalkers. Credits say “Music composed and conducted by Stan Webb” and lists Peter Graves as “Musical Coordinator”. Peter enlisted Jaco to play on a couple of brief interludes, accompanied by Bobby Economou on drums, Alex Darqui on piano, and Don Alias on percussion. http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=552F5B1AB6A4627A Have fun sorting through this B movie! :))

Derren Brown - Miracles for Sale

With the cameras in hot pursuit, Derren faces his toughest project yet, going in search of an unsuspecting member of the British public prepared to adopt the guise of a pastor and miracle worker.

His chosen one then has six months to learn the trade and flourish across the pond as a convincing pastor.

The final phase of the volunteer's extraordinary challenge sees them attempt to perform faith healing miracles live in Texas, but will Derren's new recruit be accepted as a faith healer or cast away as fake healer?

Loudness War Vs. Sales: The-Truth - Bringing Dynamics Back To Music

Loudness War Vs. Sales: The-Truth

On November 4, 2010, Earl Vickers presented his research paper at the 129th AES Convention in San Francisco with clear evidence that there is no connection between loudness and sales. (See the video below.)

Earl is the first to admit that further research is need on the subject, but his conclusions are striking. Here are a few:

  • Loudness is not correlated with sales figures
  • Loudness has almost no affect on listeners preferences when comparing different songs
  • Listeners tend to dislike the side-effects of hyper-compression, and prefer more dynamic music
  • Content trumps loudness, especially on the radio
