【Antebellum/AMV】Psycho Killer

Happy Independence Day guys!! Hope you all enjoy this!

Like I've said the theme of this amv is probably: humorously(?) compressed simple antebellum history (1812-1861) group portraits into 4 minutes. So most scenes are basically related to historical facts, and the numbers there are the years of the events. However I'm historically illiterate in antebellum era, and this was something I decided to make before I even understood antebellum people lol. I hope there aren't any big mistakes x

While playing this song on repeat it suddenly struck me that everyone in the antebellum era was a god damned Psycho Killer, hence the idea for this group portrait. It's kinda sad that some of the characters I didn't get a chance to draw or that I didn't know enough about them.

If you like this, please tell me your favourite scene and feel free to share any thoughts!!! I want comments so badly😭😭😭I will probably make an explanation of timeline later!!!

“A Great Loss:” Saxophonist David Sanborn Dies at 78

Saxophonist David Sanborn, who recorded smooth jazz as a solo artist and toured and recorded with David Bowie, Todd Rundgren, Steely Dan and others as a sideman, has died.

“May the great David Sanborn rest in love and peace,” Rundgren’s Spirit of Harmony Foundation said.

Sanborn, 78, died May 12 of complications from prostate cancer, said a post on his Facebook page. The saxophonist had continued performing since his 2018 diagnosis and “already had concerts scheduled into 2025,” the post read.

“David Sanborn was a seminal figure in contemporary pop and jazz music,” the announcement read. “It has been said that he put the saxophone back into rock ‘n’ roll.”

Fernando Perdomo echoed this sentiment, crediting Sanborn with “defin(ing) the sax’s role in pop and rock in the ’70s and ’80s.”

Questlove recalled being “floored” by a Sanborn show in Colorado, where the saxophonist made the drummer “feel like a complete amateur” despite playing an instrument that requires a significant amount of oxygen at altitude.

“He told me that since being diagnosed with cancer, he got a renewed vigor … and decided henceforth to play like his life depended on it,” Questlove said. “Amen, David. Rest in melody.”

Sanborn played Woodstock with the Butterfield Blues Band and went on to a career that included more than two dozen solo albums, gigs with the “Late Night with David Letterman” and “Saturday Night Live” bands and collaborations with Bowie, Rundgren, Paul Simon, James Taylor, Stevie Wonder, James Brown, B.B. King, Maynard Ferguson, Linda Ronstadt, Elton John and others.

“RIP, David S.,” Eric Clapton said.

The members of Spyro Gyra found themselves “shocked and beyond sad” at the news, while band leader Jay Beckenstein eulogized Sanborn as “a truly great saxophonist and musician, one of the most influential of my lifetime and an artist who had an extraordinary ability to play emotionally.

“Whatever he touched, whether jazz, gospel or pop, his approach was beautiful and powerful,” Beckenstein said. “A great loss."

The Blues Brothers is one of the greatest films ever made for many reasons, but the disparity in acting skill amongst the various rhythm and blues legends that make up the supporting cast is very good. Matt "Guitar" Murphy is reading his lines like they're being held up on cue cards whilst Aretha Franklin wipes the floor with him. Donald "Duck" Dunn is certainly saying things, but that's between him and the subtitles. We don't need to give Blue Lou any lines, you see, he has hair!

James Brown? Cab Calloway? Ray Charles? Zero notes.

James Brown is the preacher in the Blues Brothers 💙 I would love to go to this church. They sing and dance like no other congregations that I've ever seen!! While in church, Jake sees the light and knows that he needs to get the band back together to raise the money necessary to give to the Penguin to keep the orphanage open.!! Hallelujah!! The band consists of some of the greatest blues musicians in the world. This movie helped those people in real life by bringing back their music and helping them to earn some money. John Belushi's love of the blues is what inspired this movie and the album they released and the skits on SNL. He helped bring the blues to the forefront of the music world once again. I love the music from this movie. Great stars like Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, and Aretha Franklin appear in this star studded cast of musical greats!!

“Made of Stone” by The Stone Roses vs. “Daddy’s Speeding” by Suede

“Made of Stone” hails from The Stone Roses’ self-titled debut in 1989, and is a synthesis on the death of the artist Jackson Pollock, whose art had a significant impact on the aesthetic vision of the album. The album is an early classic of the Baggy/Madchester era, an early era of alternative dance music in Manchester in the UK with a heavy emphasis on drugs.

“Daddy’s Speeding,” conversely, depicts the death of James Dean and how his tragic passing was mandatory for the building of his legacy and the image he came to inspire. It hails from Suede’s sophomore album, Dog Man Star, which turns away from the anthemic-rock style of their own self-titled debut, in exchange for a pessimistic and hedonistic sound and outlook expressing the frustrations of the lifestyle that the band was living in. Dog Man Star is a personal favorite from the 90s Britpop era (released in 1994), which was heavily inspired by the preceding Baggy era.

The parallels between these songs, and the implications of the crashes they are about, are impossible to ignore.
