He acts. He sings. He shreds (sort of). Inside the man in the middle of the coen Brothers' rhapsodic new mediation on '60s folkie bohemia, Inside Llewyn Davis.
Scenes from the Westlake District of Daly City, California. One of America's first master-planned postwar suburbs, Westlake was the "inspiration" for Malvina Reynolds' song "Little Boxes," which became a hit for folkie Pete Seeger in 1964.

Since we seem to have a lot of Funk-obsessed enthusiasts here in the music forum, I thought maybe I'd start a new thread to keep that spirit going. Besides myself (), what artists are out there today that are keeping the funk alive in the 21st century? Of course you have the old school cats that are still touring or making music (Prince, George Clinton, Chili Peppers, Slave, Bar-Kays, Cameo, etc.). But I mean the next generation of folks that have some funk in their trunk. See, folks like these here in orgland have been complaining about how there's no new funk out there today, when there really is. Is just not in the forefront as much as it used to be in the 60's, 70's, and 80's. I can name you mad funky cats. And they could be in any genre, not just R&B and Soul. Look at Beck, for example. He's got that whole Alternative/Hipster/Folkie/Indie/whiteboy thang happening. But he's got the FUNK, as he has proven with the "Midnite Vultures" album. So here's who I think is keeping the funk around: Jamiroquai Van Hunt Me'Shell N'Degeocello Beck The Rapture Jamie Lidell Los Amigos Invisibles Plant Life Soulive Jaguar Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings Meech Wells Basement Jaxx !!! (chk chk chk) Robert Randolph and the Family Band Harco Pront D'Angelo The Rebirth Q and Not U (even though they're not together anymore) Erykah Badu Foals Cake Galactic Adequate Seven Raphael Saadiq Medeski, Martin, and Wood Femi Kuti Indivisible DJ Shadow Hot Chip Justice The Poets of Rhythm Quantic Soul Orchestra And I'm open to debating with you on any of these artists. But I'd be more interesting in knowing some names that aren't up here. [Edited 5/6/08 3:33am]
