Ric Ocasek RIP, Eddie Money, RIP   Printer-friendly page   Send this story to someone

RIC OCASEK, the idiosyncratic songwriter, singer and guitarist for the Cars and producer for bands like Weezer, Bad Brains, No Doubt, and Guided by Voices to name a few, has died. He was 75 (That's right, he was as old as Roger Daltrey and Ray Davies). Rolling Stone has the obit. So let's do this. Some of The Cars' hits were sung by the late Benjamin Orr, but Ocasek wrote virtually all of them, mixing influences from the Velvet Underground to Buddy Holly to Suicide to the Ohio Express: "Good Times Roll," "Best Friend's Girl, "Just What I Needed," "Bye Bye Love," "Moving In Stereo," (Hello, Brad...) "I'm In Touch With Your World," "Don't Cha Stop," "Let's Go," "Candy-O," "The Dangerous Type," "Touch and Go," Shoo Be Doo and Gimme Some Slack," "Since You're Gone," "Shake It Up," "I'm Not The One," "You Might Think,""Hello Again," "Magic," "Drive," and "Heartbeat City." The Cars were inducted into the Rock Hall last year.

EDDIE MONEY, the prolific singer and songwriter whose songs “Baby Hold On,” “Two Tickets to Paradise,” “Shakin'” and “Take Me Home Tonight” soundtracked popular music in the 1980s, died Friday. He was 70. I'm also partial to "Gimme Some Water."

HOT CHIP, Live at First Avenue, including a cover of the Beastie Bouys' "Sabotage."

DEVENDRA BANHART talks to Paste about how Venezuela is affecting him and his art.

LIAM GALLAGHER will invite Noel to his wedding.

THE NUMBER ONES looks at Wild Cherry's deeply silly disco jam, "Play That Funky Music."

 

WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: It Chapter Two tops the chart with 40.7MM on a 53 percent drop, busting the 300MM mark worldwide (and the franchise past a billion). The real story of the weekend may be Hustlers placing with a strong 33MM angainst a 20MM budget, proving a solid pic for adults can still bring in a crowd, particularly with a diverse cast bringing in multiple fan followings. That said, the B- CinemaScore raises the question of whether this lands closer to Magic Mike or to Striptease. Angel Has Fallen shows with 4.4MM on a 27 percent drop; it has crossed 60MM domestic against a 40MM production budget, but it has yet to debut in foreign markets.  Good Boys takes the fourth slot with 4.3MM and over 90MM worldwide.  The Lion King rounds out the Top Five with another 3.6MM added to its giant pile of money.  If Hustlers is this weekend's good news story, The Goldfinch is its bad news story, debutingat number eight with 2.6MM against a 45MM budget. Also, with 329MM, One Upon a Time... in Hollywood has now passed Inglourious Basterds to become Quentin Tarantino's second-biggest grosser behind Django Unchained.

FELICITY HUFFMAN has been sentenced to 14 days in prison for federal crimes stemming from the massive "Varsity Blues" college entrance scam, plus a fine and community service.

THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE:

...with T.REX! Marc Bolan died on September 17, 1977, so here's a few items off the beaten path, like this working version of "Get It On (Bang A Gong)," which is a little nsfw toward the end.  French TV is the source for live clips of "Hot Love," "Cadillac," "Telegram Sam" and "Jeepster" circa 1972, as well as "Ride A White Swan" from 1970. The band's "Baby Strange" later found its way into Big Star's setlists.  Still, "20th Century Boy" may be my favorite track from the band. Wanna go deeper? Check out the documentary, The Story Of Marc Bolan & T.Rex.

SWERVEDRIVER streams a covers EP featuring their shoegazy takes on songs by The Supremes and Gene Clark.

JAPANESE BREAKFAST visits World Cafe.

THE HEAD AND THE HEART visit KEXP.

LUCY DACUS covers Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark."

ROBBIE BOBERTSON & GLEN HANSARD share "Dead End Kid."

ALMOST FAMOUS: Elton John. "Tiny Dancer." Because.

R.E.M.: Mike Mills talks to NME about touring Monster. And the band shares the unreleased song “Fascinating” to benefit Bahamas hurricane relief.

BELLE & SEBASTIAN's Stuart Murdoch on the records that changed his life.

LLOYD COLE talks to The Aquarian. (Thx, LHB.)

THE NUMBER ONES looks at KC & The Sunshine Band's butt-centric disco jam "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty." How was "Boogie Shoes" a B-side?

NOW SHOWING: This weekend's wide releases are Hustlers, which is currently scoring 88 percent on the ol' Tomatometer; and The Goldfinch, which is currently scoring 28 percent.

SOUTH PARK through 2022. Trey Parker and Matt Stone discuss how long they want to keep doing the show, some plans to make a (non-South Park) movie for the first time in 15 years and the rise of cancel culture.

THE MANDALORIAN: Could two fan favorites from the Star Wars Expanded Universe show up in a live-action production for the first time?
