Happy Belated Birthday, Screamin' Jay!

"Jalacy Hawkins (July 18, 1929, Cleveland, Ohio — February 12, 2000, Paris, France), best known as Screamin' Jay Hawkins was an African-American musician, singer, and actor." What a way to go, eh?, Cleveland to Paris...

"I Am The Cool"



Jim Jarmusch's "Mystery Train" (1989):
Steve Buscemi, Joe Strummer and Rick Aviles riding in a car, Screamin' Jay Hawkins and Cinqué Lee at the desk of a hotel, they all are listening to Elvis Presley on the radio.

"It's not always frozen..."

Now I just watch this:

Ides of April Plus One

Charles Chaplin, born April 16th, 1889




Tristan Tzara, a prime instigator of Dada, was born April 16th, 1896.



Theme for "The Pink Panther," who is, perhaps, Chaplinesque and a bit of a Dadaist as well, composed by Henry Mancini, born April 16th, 1924, in the Little Italy neighborhood of Cleveland, but also claimed by Pittsburghers. At any rate, one of the great Italian-American musicians (along with Dodo Marmarosa).
