TV Guide -  October 24 - 30, 1964
Robert Francis Vaughn (November 22, 1932 – November 11, 2016) Actor noted for his stage, film and television work. His television roles include the spy Napoleon Solo in the 1960s series The Man from U.N.C.L.E.; the detective Harry Rule in the 1970s series The Protectors; Morgan Wendell in the 1978–1979 miniseries Centennial; General Hunt Stockwell in the fifth season of the 1980s series The A-Team; and grifter and card sharp Albert Stroller in the British television drama series Hustle (2004–2012), for all but one of its 48 episodes. He also appeared in the British soap opera Coronation Street as Milton Fanshaw from January until February 2012. 
Vaughn made his television debut on the November 21, 1955, "Black Friday" episode of the American television series Medic, the first of more than two hundred episodic roles through mid-2000.
In 1956, Vaughn made his first guest appearance on Gunsmoke in the episode entitled “Cooter.” The following year, he made his second guest appearance on Gunsmoke opposite Barbara Eden in a Romeo-Juliet role, in the episode "Romeo", which turned out okay for the bride and groom.
In 1963 Vaughn appeared in an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show as Jim Darling, a successful businessman and an old flame of Laura Petrie in the episode "It's A Shame She Married Me". During the 1963–64 season of The Lieutenant, Vaughn appeared as Captain Raymond Rambridge alongside Gary Lockwood, who played a Marine second lieutenant at Camp Pendleton. Vaughn had guest-starred on Lockwood's 1961–62 series Follow the Sun.
From 1964 to 1968, Vaughn played Solo with Scottish co-star David McCallum playing his fellow agent, Illya Kuryakin. This production spawned a spinoff show, large amounts of merchandising, overseas theatrical movies of re-edited episodes, and a sequel, The Return of the Man from U.N.C.L.E.: The Fifteen-Years-Later Affair.  (Wikipedia)

Jane Austen & Emma (the name)
David M. Shapard's first annotation to the text of Emma discusses Jane Austen's affection for the name:
her fondness for it appears in several letters in which she expresses a wish that someone had the name, disgust that a person with it married someone with an unattractive name, or special indignation that a young lady deprived of sufficient dancing partners should be an Emma (Nov. 30, 1800; April 21, 1805; Dec. 9, 1808).
I have a copy of Jane Austen's Letters (editor Deirdre Le Faye), so I looked up the exact quotes!
The letter of November 30th, 1800, makes reference to something talked about in previous letters, so I'll backtrack a little for context.
On the 12th of November, Austen relays news that a Sir T. Williams is getting married—the "no no, for real this time" is terrific: she writes that "It has been reported indeed twenty times before".
There are letters missing between that snippet and the next (on the 20th), when she corrects the identity of Sir Thomas' new bride from a rumored "Fanshawe" to someone she elaborates on a bit more & who is apparently named "Miss Emma Wabshaw".
There are additional missing letters between this and when we arrive at a more established identity on the cited Nov. 30th letter.
November 30, 1800
The Endless Debaries are of course very well acquainted with the lady who is to marry Sir Thomas, & all her family. I pardon them however, as their description of her is favourable.—Mrs Wapshire is a widow, with several sons & daughters, a good fortune, & a house in Salisbury; where Miss Wapshire has been for many years a distinguished beauty.—She is now seven or eight & twenty, & tho' still handsome less handsome than she has been.—This promises better, than the bloom of seventeen; & in addition to this, they say that she has always been remarkable for the propriety of her behaviour, distinguishing her far above the general class of Town Misses, & rendering her of course very unpopular among them.—I hope I have now gained the real truth, & that my letters may in future go on without conveying any farther contradictions of what was last asserted about Sir Thomas Williams & Miss Wapshire—I wish I could be certain that her name were Emma; but her being the Eldest daughter leaves that circumstance doubtful.
Interestingly, when she first introduces "Emma" on the 20th, Austen writes that she "is handsome, accomplished, amiable, & everything but rich."
I find that to sound very delightfully like "handsome, clever, and rich, with [...] a happy disposition". Or maybe I just have Emma brainrot.
And then there are the other two incidents Shapard mentions in his note, which are much more concise:
April 21, 1805
The papers announce the Marriage of the Rev: Edward Bather, Rector of some place in Shropshire to a Miss Emma Halifax—a Wretch!—he does not deserve an Emma Halifax's maid Betty.
December 9, 1808
There were only 4 dances, & it went to my heart that the Miss Lances (one of them too named Emma!) should have partners only for two.

Top 50 Albums of 2022
5. angel in realtime. by Gang of Youths
One of the personal highlights of this year has been getting to write reviews and features for Gigwise. Since joining the team in January, I've been introduced to some great new artists and projects throughout the year that may well have slipped my radar otherwise. Back in February in one of my first reviews for the publication, I was introduced to an Australian indie rock outfit on their third album who had somehow escaped me till then.
The more I researched for the review and delved into the story behind the album, the more I became intrigued by it. Then when I eventually hit play on the record itself, I was simply blown away with what I heard – that album was angel in realtime by Gang of Youths, one of my Top 5 Albums of 2022.
Although angel in realtime is ultimately a personal story centred on frontman David Le’aupepe’s late father, the themes and emotions that course through the record are those with which anyone can relate. Not only does angel in realtime succeed in being a poignant and emotional tribute to Le’aupepe’s own family heritage, but it also delivers a richly composed, beautifully orchestrated indie rock record that flourishes in its examination of the complete human experience. Here's what I said in my review back in February:
“In the five years since their highly-acclaimed sophomore album Go Farther In Lightness, there’s been a lot of change for Australian alt-rock group Gang of Youths. In late 2019 founding member Joji Malani left the band, before being replaced shortly after by multi-instrumentalist (and Noah and The Whale alumnus) Tom Hobden. More importantly though: in 2018, frontman Dave Le’aupepe lost his father, whose life and legacy serves as the primary inspiration for their sensational new album, angel in realtime.
Sonically it is dazzling, with Gang of Youths remaining a rock band at their core but bringing in elements of classical, dance and folk music, helping this collection of songs to really soar. There are also more than a few nods to Le’aupepe’s heritage found within the eclectic sounds on display too, with contributions from Pasifika and Māori vocalists, as well as samples of composer David Fanshawe’s recordings of indigenous music from the Polynesian Islands and wider South Pacific region.
All of this is evident almost immediately too, as 'You In Everything' is a spellbinding, hugely orchestral opener where Le’aupepe intricately describes the final moments with his father. It is the perfect scene-setter, with widescreen instrumentation as Le’aupepe goes through each sense on the heartbreaking refrain of “I will (need/see/hear/feel) you in everything.” It’s an emotional hook that pulls you into the record, with 'In the Wake of Your Leave' continuing the story, as backing harmonies are provided courtesy of the Auckland Gospel Choir and percussion by several drummers from the Cook Islands. Lead single 'Angel of 8th Ave.' is then where you can really start to hear Tom Hobden’s influence coming into the fold—a hugely anthemic love song set in London, buoyed by strings, synths and a big singalong refrain of “there’s heaven in you now.”
Oddly, despite the wealth of instrumental splendour, it is probably the album’s most stripped-back song that offers the finest moment. Le’aupepe never knew the full extent of his father’s life and ancestry until after he had passed away, which is where he also learned he had two older half-brothers. After tracking them down and meeting them for the first time, he wrote 'Brothers', a raw piano ballad that pays tribute to his father’s legacy whilst outlining the highs and lows of the relationships he has with his siblings. It is exquisitely written and makes for a devastatingly stunning piece of songwriting.
For Dave Le’aupepe and Gang of Youths, the goal for this new record was clear: “I hope the record stands as a monument to the man my father was and remains long after I’m gone myself. He deserved it.” Whilst time will tell whether they have ultimately met their target, one thing for now is certain—this is a beautiful and moving tribute that extends beyond Le’aupepe’s own experiences and allows the listener to connect with the human stories they find at the heart. With gorgeous writing, an emotional resonance, as well as magnificent, diverse compositions throughout, you can’t help but get completely swept away.”
Best tracks: brothers, the angel of 8th ave., in the wake of your leave

La leyenda viva del rock, Mick Jagger, festeja sus 80 años
Tumblr media
El vocalista de los Rolling Stones organizó una multitudinaria fiesta donde familiares y celebridades se reunieron para desearle un feliz cumpleaños   La leyenda del rock Mick Jagger sigue sorprendiendo a propios y extraños por la gran vitalidad que desprende arriba y abajo del escenario a sus flamantes 80 años. Como era de esperarse, el músico celebró su natalicio como es debido: una fiesta en el club Embargo Republica, ubicado en el barrio de Chelsea en Londres, donde familiares y celebridades se reunieron para desearle un feliz cumpleaños al vocalista de The Rolling Stones. Jagger nació el 26 de julio de 1943 en Dartford, Kent. Su madre Eva Ensley Mary era peluquera, su padre Basil Fanshawe ‘Joe’ Jagger compitió en gimnasia y el hermano menor de Mick, Chris, también es músico. La cuenta oficial de los Rolling Stones compartió en sus redes un mensaje para el británico deseándole un muy feliz cumpleaños junto a un video que recorre la vida del cantante. Acudieron sus ocho hijos, cinco nietos y tres bisnietos al evento privado y también Melanie Hamrick, la exbailarina del American Ballet Theatre y actual novia, 44 años más joven con quien lleva nueve años en pareja. El gran ausente de la jornada fue el guitarrista de The Rolling Stones, Keith Richards, quien de todas maneras le dejó un sentido mensaje en un comunicado: “Espero que podamos seguir diciéndonos esto el uno al otro por mucho tiempo ¡Feliz cumpleaños, Mick!”. A las 3 de la mañana, Mick salió del lugar; no se sabe si fue el alcohol o el cansancio, pero el músico fue visto sujetándose de un miembro de seguridad que se encargó de subirlo a un auto y llevarlo a casa sano y salvo. Jagger junto a su banda planean lanzar un nuevo álbum donde aparecerá el fallecido baterista Charlie Watts. Quien confirmó la noticia fue uno de los guitarristas de la banda, Ronnie Wood, de 75 años, asegurando que podremos escucharlo en algunas canciones del nuevo disco. Ronnie dio a conocer la noticia al portal de noticias The Sun. “Estamos grabando el nuevo álbum ahora y nos vamos a Los Ángeles en unas pocas semanas para continuarlo y terminarlo. Charlie está en algunas de las pistas, y el baterista Steve Jordan”, dijo. Por fortuna para los fanáticos de la banda, Charlie Watts que tendrá participación una vez más en las canciones de la banda que lo acompañó por más de 60 años. El baterista cumplió 80 años en junio de 2021 y llevaba tocando con los Stones desde 1963. Junto con el cantante Mick Jagger y el guitarrista Keith Richards, Charlie Watts era uno de los miembros más antiguos de la famosa banda de rock, en la que también han participado Mick Taylor, Ron Wood y Bill Wyman. Mick y su compañero de banda Keith Richards se hicieron amigos en la escuela primaria, cuando compartían el amor por el ritmo y el blues. Los Rolling Stones debutaron en 1962 y desde entonces han lanzado más de 20 álbumes de estudio, vendido más de 200 millones de discos y cientos de conciertos alrededor del mundo. Su música marcó generaciones e influyó a muchos otros artistas.   Un hombre polifacético Mick estudió administración de empresas en la London School of Economics antes de decidir formar la banda que lo haría famoso. Además de ser cantante, compositor y productor musical, Mick Jagger también incursionó en otras áreas como el cine, la literatura y la moda. Actuó en varias películas como Ned Kelly (1970), Performance (1970) y Freejack (1992), entre otras. Escribió canciones para bandas sonoras como Alfie (2004) y The Departed (2006). Colaboró con otros músicos como David Bowie, Peter Tosh y Lenny Kravitz. También fue un ícono de la moda por su forma de vestir y su actitud rebelde. Lanzó su propia línea de ropa llamada Jagged Edge y ha sido modelo para marcas como Burberry y Dior. Y apoyó causas sociales y ambientales como Live Aid, Live 8 y Global Cool. Read the full article

Three Men in a Boat (BBC, 1975)
"Medmenham Abbey once sheltered the notorious Hellfire Club. It stands on the site of a Cistercian monastery of the 13th century. The monks wore rough tunics; ate no fish, meat, or eggs; rose at midnight for Mass; and passed the day in total silence, a mode of life which might, if not overdone, be a benefit to some of us - especially Harris, who not only eats fish, meat, and eggs at every opportunity, but often talks at the same time."
#three men in a boat#jerome k. jerome#Single play#classic tv#BBC#1975#tom stoppard#stephen frears#tim curry#michael palin#stephen moore#George camiller#William Russell#Russell Dixon#George innes#Michael elphick#Bill Stewart#David fanshawe#caught this on bb4 after the recent Imagine doc on Stoppard (a very...illuminating piece for better and for worse) (honestly i felt quite#disheartened after). Any opportunity to see archive plays like this is of course a source of joy but i can't help wishing the powers that#be might have shown an adaptation of an actual Stoppard original (perhaps one of the several productions of After Magritte made for British#tv). Still! This was a delight and although Stoppard may have been adapting someone else's work there are still very clear flashes of his#voice here (for example his decision to not simply have the quoted Shelley lines read in VO but to actually have Shelley onscreen reading#them and then have Jerome's characters literally run into him). It's this kind of textual playfulness which makes Stoppard such a good fit#with Jerome's deadpan irony. The cast is large and talented but of course the focus is firmly on our three leads: a young and fresh faced#Curry anchors it all with deliberate dry wit while the slightly more excessive plot moments are shared between Palin (newly freed from the#Python shackles) and the much missed Moore. As in the book this is as much a celebration of a place and time as any kind of narrative#but it's still a deceptively strong story with surprising moments of pathos and depth in among all the frivolity and sardonic wit#a joyous little thing. im not sure if it's still on iplayer but if it is i highly recommend it to anyone and everyone

Everything You Wanted to Know About Javanese Gamelan But Were Afraid to Ask: John Pitts' "Extreme Heterophony"
Everything You Wanted to Know About Javanese Gamelan But Were Afraid to Ask: John Pitts’ “Extreme Heterophony”
This is John Pitts‘ second incursion into adapting non-western music for the conventional piano. In doing so he follows a long tradition of fascination with non-western musics by western composers. Listeners will likely be familiar with Beethoven or Mozart who imitated Turkish music to add an exotic dimension to their compositions (Beethoven with his Turkish March sequence in the finale of the…

Ballet West rehearses for its New York City debut of African Sanctus, by British composer-explorer David Fanshawe, in March 1980. The ballet is based on Mr. Fanshawe's 2,000-mile odyssey through Africa and combines field recordings of more than 50 African tribes within a musical setting of the traditional Mass. The composer said, "Wherever I went people were praising things -- that is what African music is all about. It could be Christ or Muhammad, or something like love, creation or cattle."

Chapter 25:
If she knew the room was going to break out into another round of applause as she took to the dance floor, Julia would have parked herself at her table for the whole night, but the dance floor was in full view of her seat and she had watched all the dancing with envy long enough. The moment she heard the trumpet blares of “Come Fly With Me,” Julia helped herself up and walked over to the next table where the Marquess of Beauchamp was well invested in his conversation with Stephanie Parks. While she waited for her old friend to reluctantly pry himself away, Julia had let her eyes scan the room to see David without locking her eyes onto him. She had gotten quite good at seeing him without looking at him.

Okay bc this has been a thought in my brain for a while, twofs/tlfop characters and their music tastes:
Thaniel: anything and everything. This man’s playlists are disgusting. I’ve never met a good musician who didn’t have the most buck wild taste in music and I refuse to believe it’s any different for him. Shit goes from Ice Nine Kills to Megan Thee Stallion to Tchaikovsky to the Big Time Rush soundtrack, it’s a mess. Though I firmly believe his favourite artists are like Elton John and David Bowie and all them.
Mori: he gives me Måneskin vibes for absolutely no reason, but also he seems like the kind of person who would pretend to have a very sophisticated and high-brow taste in music when really he’s in the top 0.05% of Nicki Minaj’s listeners on Spotify. Can’t blame him tho shit smacks-
Grace: fuckin indie hipster bullshit, and she’s very annoying about it. “Oh idk if you’d like this, it’s very underground *plays Sweater Weather*”. That kind of shit.
Matsumoto: he listens to whatever’s popular when he’s around people, but this man fucking l o v e s musicals and listens to them constantly in his free time. He’s gone to auditions for shows he likes without rehearsing in the slightest and has gotten callbacks because he knows the songs that well.
Six: I’ve said this before but I really feel like she’d like metal and rock songs. Like just picture this small, sweet looking kid with lil purple cat ear headphones listening to Rob Zombie on the highest volume while making naval weapons. Truly her father’s daughter.
Takiko: she also listens to indie music but she’s cool enough to get away with it and isn’t annoying about it. If you ask her for music recommendations she’ll actually give you music you’ll like instead of just forcing you to listen to the stereotypical indie songs everyone knows. Actually does know cool underground artists and brings people to their shows and it’s always a blast.
Midori: …girl in red-
Vaulker: his playlists are full of the stereotypical Masculine™️ bands and artists like Van Halen, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, yknow the kinds of bands/artists who base their entire aesthetic off the queer community’s popular aesthetic of the 60s and 70s but nooo of course it isn’t gay what are you talking about-
Kuroda: he listens to podcasts. Not just any podcasts tho, centrist political podcasts. And he calls in daily.
Fanshaw: if you had a computer that generates playlists for people and you typed the word “gay” into it, Fanshaw’s playlist is what you would get.
Pringle: definitely listens to Yung Gravy, Toji, and any artist that has a “I <3 Milfs/Dilfs” vibe (but all his playlists kinda smack — nobody wants to give him the satisfaction of telling him tho)
Tanaka: like Thaniel he also has a very diverse music taste, but he uses it for evil. And by evil I mean he’ll figure out what kind of music just gets under your skin like no other and blasts it whenever you’re around. This man can stand in a room with the most god awful music blaring at the highest volume and he’ll start headbanging.
Choshu: exclusively listens to classical music and jazz and stuff like that, the kind of music you’d expect a person with a high quality leather arm chair and fancy whiskey decanter set to listen to.
