Perhaps the best use of Q Lazzarus’ “Good-bye Horses” since Buffalo Bill filmed himself transgendrifying inside the depths of his basement disco lair. Too bad I now associate the song with two of the creepiest things ever recorded, as it’s a killer track.

Ghost of Otis

Outstandingly crisp video of Otis Redding performing the following setlist in Paris on his birthday (parts II-IV after the break):

Part I: Introduction, Shake, Don’t Mess With Cupid
Part II: My Girl, I’ve Been Loving You Too Long (for me, the highlight of the set), Respect
Part III: My Lover’s Prayer, Can’t Turn You Loose, Satisfaction

In Part IV, a bunch of French folks in the audience sing “Happy Birthday” to Otis.  A thousand thanks to whomever posted this. For more live Otis, snatch In Person at the Whisky a Go Go.
