And shortly after that, "What did you, put a quarantine sign in the window?!"
I really love this character. Whoever wrote his lines is brilliant, and who else could play him like Danny DeVito? The theme song is my favorite song of all time.

Yes, this music was the background to a certain scene in a recent Netflix movie.

Another excellent song by Bob James, "Nautilus," actually became one of the most widely sampled songs in hip-hop:

-Since I've Been Loving You- Guitar Cover by Ayla

Nearly 50 years ago this song was the showcase song for one our lead singers. This 15 year old Canadian girl is a far better guitar player then the two guitars players we had.

Wow, that kid is really talented.

That was four years ago. She just turned 19 last month. And, others have recognized how talented she is:

Ayla Liliana Tesler-Mabe(born March 7, 2001) is a Canadian guitarist, vocalist, and composer.[1] Tesler-Mabe is the lead guitarist and co-vocalist for the band Calpurnia.[2] She was born in Calgary, Alberta and grew up in Vancouver, British Columbia.[3] She gained viral online popularity via youtube and Instagram with her covers of classic rock songs including Led Zeppelin's "Since I've Been Loving You," which has been viewed more than 2 million times on Youtube since its upload in 2016. [4][5] Tesler-Mabe is an invited member of Brotherhood of Guitar Group of Young Guitar Prodigies, the Ernie Ball family, and Music Man family.

Tesler-Mabe began singing at age 6 and playing stringed instruments in her youth with the cello at age 9, the bass at age 11, and the electric guitar at age 12.

This was also amazing, watching her play all the instruments to the song plus do multi-vocals:

RAY DALIO was on NPR just now but I missed it. (Cat wanted a drink from the sink).
If anyone finds the audio, maybe you can post it, here. I’ll look for it in the afternoon.

That video clip is hilarious! Bill Murray would be going nut if he sees it.

If anyone, for whatever reason, has to read Pride and Prejudice in the future for a class, I found a very faithful TV miniseries adaptation online.

This has made understanding the story arc much easier. Although I do still prefer the zombies version as per below. Fight scenes make ANY movie better!!

Looks like he has been in quarantine for quite some time (based on his hair).

I think the image is of Louis Le Grande Dauphin. That said, I always wondered where bow ties originated.

Some bass for Dualstow (along with an excellent female guitarist):

Adam Schlesinger, late of Fountains of Wayne and fountains of coronavirus, wrote the song That Thing You Do, from the eponymous movie. You can hear the similarities with their song Stacy's Mom, especially in the backing vocals.

Love both the movie and the song. I can listen to the song at least five times in a row. After I finally finish doing so, I'll listen to that other song.
