A great film. Did you know that the swordsmith in the village scene is Kuniie Yoshihara. A Mukansa swordsmith in his own right and elder brother of Yoshindo.

No I didn’t know about the swordsmith - a Google search is in order!

I watched the movie last week, and there are very few movies that move me or suck me in emotionally the way this one does.

Listed in IMDB as Shoji Yoshihara. Thats his real name, Kuniie is his swordsmith name, a homage to his grandfather.
Edit … younger brother to Yoshindo.

Graham Central Station 5 album box set.

It’s very hit and miss actually but great fun if you’re in just the right mood.

Bought at the same time as Quincy Jones: The Dude. Fantastically groovy.

Jack with a real band. It’s all good.

Obviously, The White Stripes stuff is also good, but really limited by Meg’s primitive drumming, in my view. I really like Jack’s acoustic album, too.

Beach Boys - Surfs Up.

Surfer dudes turned eco warriors before eco warriors were invented. Harmonies and melodies still great!
