1952 Vincent Black Lightning
2024-12-03
Happy newest of years, everyone. This is Week 10 of Slayed by Voices, which means only eight posts left before we wrap on January 27. In another happy coincidence, while 2021 brought a 30th anniversary to today’s song, 2022 offers a 70th anniversary of sorts to the title.

“And I don't mind dyin' but for the love of you.”
The Vincent Black Lightning was the world’s fastest production motorcycle. A bike built in the garages of post-war Hertfordshire, 30 miles north of London, set the record in 1950 and remained the fastest thing on two wheels for 35 years. It’s a legend, and legends are the stuff of folklore.
Richard Thompson was in his teens when he co-founded Fairport Convention, the band that created British folk rock by adding a rock beat to the traditional song “A Sailor’s Life.
The Contemporary Art movement is one large chunk of a movement. It basically encapsulates every smaller art movement that took place from the 1970s until now. The Feminist art movement, Graffiti art, neo-expressionism, computer art – all of these are smaller movements held within the overall umbrella of the Contemporary Art movement.
The movements and styles that kick-started the Contemporary Art movement in the 1970s are particularly interesting to me. In many ways, it’s the first time in art history where you can see a break from the long-held traditions of the art world/
When you think of music from the 1980s, it’s hard not to think of excess. It’s hard not to think of big hair and even bigger choruses; huge stadium shows, the eruption of MTV and the synth-esised blue-print for all pop music that followed.
Everything was bright colours and glamour; everything was extreme and pushed to the limit. Most importantly, everything was Fun with a capital F. Whether you liked Chic or Sheena Easton, Tina Turner, Dolly Parton or KISS it all seemed so enormous; larger than life and pushed to the max.
As the end of our little 1998 project draws near, I notice one genre that has been mostly absent: the crime film. There was a great resurgence in crime films in the ‘90s, largely brought on by Quentin Tarantino and the Coen brothers, whose pulpy masterworks earned their spots in the canon and inspired a slew of half-baked imitations. But Tarantino didn’t make a film in 1998, and The Big Lebowski, the Coens’ contribution to our project, feels more like a stoner comedy than a crime movie.
Welcome, friends, to the latest entry in my ongoing series about Saturday Night Live movies. I initially planned to do this in chronological order but then I realized I could write about these movies in whatever goddamn order I want and there’s nothing Mr. Sleepy Joe “Let’s Go Brandon” Biden can do about it.
I’ve been feeling bummed about the cancellation of the second Blues Brothers Convention in Old Joliet Prison.

20 WAYS TO SATISFY YOUR HUSBAND SEXUALLY
-Bisi Adewale
For your husband's sexual needs to be met, you need to do more than just lie down and say, "Do whatever you want to do and let me sleep". You won't just sleep with your husband, but you will sleep with his imagination. You must capture his five senses; you must let him feel he is getting the best he can get anywhere in the world.
