5 On Friday – Let’s All Go To The Movies

The 5 on Friday Meme is the creation of our friend Travis of Trav’s Thoughts. To join in, click on the link, sign in and share your five musical choices for the week.

With the last of all the big Oscar contenders about to appear at a theater near you, I went for songs about making movies.

Stereophonic Sound

Buffalo Nickel Photoplay Inc – Ragtime

The Buddy System -City of Angels

Science Fiction Double Feature – Rocky Horror Picture Show

The Movies – Statler Brothers

Carly Simon did a beautiful album about the music of the black and white films. If you have the time, enjoy The Making of Film Noir – Carly Simon (Long but worth watching)

About Me

Retired great grandmother living in the Northwest US. Former radio Public Service Director and National Accounts Manager.

I’m a hair-dishevelled heilan’ coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I’m cursed tae ca’ ma hame.
Depending on the mood I’m in
I’ll raise ma horns on high,
An’ if I like the look o’ ye
I’ll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O’ ye, then tak great care,
I’ll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o’there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I’ll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o’ ma een.
