When asked once about what made him different than anyone else, Lightnin’ Hopkins replied, “A bluesman is just different from any other man that walks this earth. The blues is something that is hard to get acquainted with. Just like death. The blues dwell with you everyday and everywhere.”

Lightnin’ was tremendously appealing for aspiring blues guitarists to emulate because his signature turnaround was relatively easy to learn, but it was extremely hard to replicate his sound because of his distinctive held notes, pauses, string bending, and shortened and lengthened measures. Sometimes, as bluesman Michael “Hawkeye” Herman points out, Lightnin’ “played it in triplets, sometimes as a quarter note, sometimes as an eighth note…. He knew how to play the same lick/riff forward, backward, from the middle to the front, from the middle to the back, from the back to the front … each effort creating a completely huge guitar vocabulary.” Ultimately, it didn’t matter what kind of guitar he was playing, acoustic or electric. “He just had this feel,” guitarist and luthier Sam Swank maintains, echoing the sentiments of so many Lightnin’ devotees. “There aren’t that many blues guitar players in the world that when you drop the needle on the record, anybody who’s anybody knows who that is. Lightnin’ Hopkins is one of those guitar players.”

Cuando le preguntaron qué le hacía diferente de los demás, Lightnin' Hopkins respondió: "Un bluesman es diferente de cualquier otro hombre que camine por esta tierra. El blues es algo difícil de conocer. Como la muerte. El blues te acompaña todos los días y en todas partes.”

Lightnin' resultaba tremendamente atractivo para los aspirantes a guitarristas de blues porque su giro característico era relativamente fácil de aprender, pero resultaba extremadamente difícil reproducir su sonido debido a sus características notas sostenidas, pausas, dobleces de cuerdas y compases cortos y largos. A veces, como señala el bluesman Michael "Hawkeye" Herman, Lightnin' "lo tocaba en tresillos, a veces como una negra, a veces como una corchea….". Sabía tocar el mismo lick/riff hacia delante, hacia atrás, del centro hacia delante, del centro hacia atrás, de atrás hacia delante… cada esfuerzo creaba un vocabulario de guitarra completamente enorme". Al final, daba igual el tipo de guitarra que tocara, acústica o eléctrica. "Simplemente tenía ese toque", afirma el guitarrista y luthier Sam Swank, haciéndose eco de los sentimientos de tantos devotos de Lightnin'. "No hay tantos guitarristas de blues en el mundo que, cuando sueltas la aguja del disco, cualquiera sabe de quién se trata. Lightnin' Hopkins es uno de esos guitarristas".

James Brolin and Richard Benjamin in Westworld (Michael Crichton, 1973)

Cast: Yul Brynner, Richard Benjamin, James Brolin, Norman Bartold, Alan Oppenheimer, Victoria Shaw, Dick Van Patten, Linda Gaye Scott, Steve Franken, Michael T. Mikler, Terry Wilson, Majel Barrett, Anne Randall. Screenplay: Michael Crichton. Cinematography: Gene Polito. Art direction: Herman A. Blumenthal. Film editing: David Bretherton. Music: Fred Karlin. 

Today, Michael Crichton's film Westworld is probably best known for inspiring the HBO series of the same name. Viewing both of them is a study in the anxieties of two eras almost 50 years apart. The 1973 film takes place in a futuristic amusement park in which the guests indulge their fantasies by encountering androids playing figures from the past and mostly either killing them or having sex with them. So does the series, which ran from 2016 to 2022. In both the movie and the series, things go seriously awry, with the androids killing or maiming their human guests. Especially in comparison with the series' handsomely realized vision of the future, its exploration of the creation of the androids, and its portrayal of the corporate intrigue behind the scenes of the park, Crichton's movie looks antique: the special effects are clunky, the characterization and acting are routine, and some of the action scenes are unconvincing. But the chief difference between the movie and the series lies in their understanding of the causes of the park's disaster. In the movie, the cause is said to be malfunctioning technology, an undetected glitch in the machinery. But in the series the cause lies deeper: The androids develop consciousness, a self-awareness that causes them to rebel against their human makers. To put it in other words, in the 1970s we were concerned about the problem of increasing dependence on fallible technology. In the 21st century, we're worried about technology becoming too good, about artificial intelligence outstripping human intelligence. The fallibility is not in the machines but in ourselves. But to be fair, Crichton showed a sign of our concern about AI, specifically the potential for cybernetic beings to self-replicate and evolve on their own. An engineer in the movie notes that the androids are "almost as complicated as living organisms. In some cases, they have been designed by other computers. We don't know exactly how they work."

Besides winning many awards, he co-founded Capitol Records, the first “indie label” of the 20th Century not dependent on the film industry or other corporate interests. Mercer was one of those fabled “napkin writers,” meaning he’d grab any scrap of paper handy, throw down lyrics, then have a demo ready within hours. “Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive” was inspired by a sermon he heard on the radio. Normally he’d pitch the song to other singers but it was perfect for his voice. His recording was a Top 10 hit and has been used in several films. Here’s my take—I’ve grown fond of it and it’s a touchstone of my “assisted living home set.”

A documentary filmmaker interviews the now-famous Trevor Slattery from behind bars. Credits: TheMovieDb. Film Cast: Trevor Slattery / The Mandarin: Ben Kingsley Jackson Norriss: Scoot McNairy Herman: Lester Speight Justin Hammer: Sam Rockwell White Power Dave: Matt Gerald Fletcher Heggs: Allen Maldonado Asian Prisoner: Billy Choi Bar Monkey: Crystal the Monkey Inmate Prisoner: Joey Abril Prison Inmate: Cuete Yeska Asian Prisoner: Marcus Natividad Film Crew: Original Music Composer: Brian Tyler Producer: Kevin Feige Editor: Dan Lebental Director of Photography: Michael Bonvillain Executive Producer: Louis D’Esposito Executive Producer: Alan Fine Executive Producer: Victoria Alonso Property Master: Russell Bobbitt Director: Drew Pearce Movie Reviews: Gimly: Of all the Marvel One-Shots, this might just be the best. It serves as an explanation for plot points that arose in _Iron Man 3_ (much like the consultant did for _The Incredible Hulk_), but it goes beyond a simple function and provides the audience with not just information, but entertainment. _Final rating:★★★½ – I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time._ heliosyne: Probably the best production values of all of the One-Shots, this short comedy film brings conclusion to Trevor Slattery’s character in the same style that gave so much substance to the role in Iron Man 3. Found as an extra on the Thor: The Dark World disc, and among the collected One-Shots on the bonus disc in the Phase 2 box set.

Join your faithful Grue Crew – Doc Rotten, Bill Mulligan, and Jeff Mohr along with guest host Dirk Rogers – as they scrutinize the legendary, … or infamous, Trog (1970)!

Special guest-host Dirk Rogers joins the Grue Crew for this episode, picking the much-mentioned, often disparaged Trog (1970) which stars Joan Crawford (in her final film role) and Michael Gough. While the makeup/”mask” of Trog looks fantastic, the rest of the costume fails to live up to the title’s promise, generating more chuckles than gasps. The film is often cheesy and full of plot holes with ample amounts of questionable science; yet, somehow, Trog manages to be entertaining and fast-paced, wasting no time getting to the creature and the conflict between scientist Crawford and the corrupt town asshole Gough. Shenanigans ensue. The Grue-Crew share their thoughts on the film, the cast, and the effects of this early Seventies creature feature.

At the time of this writing, Trog is available to stream from Dailymotion and various PPV sources. The film is available on physical media in Blu-ray format from Shout! Factory.

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror two-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s.

LGBT literature of the 1860s–1910s. Part 1

Although homosexual love became more prominent in literature in the 1920s, there were dozens of different novels, poems and essays about homosexual men and women before that decade, and many of them were officially published! Here are ten such works, written between the 1860s and 1910s.

1. Une Femme M’Apparut (A Woman Appeared to Me), by Renée Vivien (1904). A beautiful autobiographical novel about Vivien’s relationship with Natalie Barney and also about her relationship with Catholicism.

[Read online in French or in English (also on Web Archive)]

2. The Green Carnation, by Robert Smythe Hichens (1894). A scandalous novel with characters based on Oscar Wilde and Lord Alfred Douglas (Bosie). Bold and delicious, according to The Observer. Esmé Amarinth and Lord Reginald Hastings are followers of “the higher philosophy” and navigate their lives in the Victorian society that doesn’t favour men like them.

3. A Marriage Below Zero, by Alan Dale (1889). This American novel is considered the first English-language novel that portrays a romantic relationship between men. Elsie Bouverie, falls in love with Arthur Ravener and later marries him. However, soon she realises that Arthur is more than fond of Captain Dillington. Indeed, the two are in love and some time later go to live in Paris together.

4. Mikaël, by Herman Bang (1904). A semi-autobiographical story of an artist’s unrequited love for his bisexual student. This novel was later adapted into a silent film Michael by Carl Theodor Dreyer in 1924 which is available with English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Bulgarian subtitles here.

[Read online in Danish]

5. Wings, by Mikhail Kuzmin (1906). A tale of Vanya Smurov who is attached to his mentor Larion Stroop. An aesthete, Larion introduces him to the world of Classical and Renaissance art, and they go to Italy together. This novel offers an interesting insight into gay community in Russia.

[Read online in Russian or buy in English]

6. Poems by Digby Dolben (1860s). Dolben’s poems are plainly homoerotic, even though they don’t specify gender of the author’s love interest. My personal favourites are Homo Factus Est and A Song.

[Read online]

7. An Anglo-American Alliance: A Serio-Comic Romance and Forecast of the Future, by Gregory Casparian (1906). Get this: an Edwardian science fiction novel set in 1960 about lesbian romantic relationship, although one of them is actually a transmasc character. And they live happily. Be warned, though, that this is still an Edwardian novel, i.e. it’s rather problematic.

[Read online]

8. The Sins of the Cities of the Plain, or, The Recollections of a Mary-Ann, with Short Essays on Sodomy and Tribadism (1881). This book is based on the life of Jack Saul, an Irish male prostitute, or rentboy, and it is one of the first homosexual erotic works. Also includes a look into the Victorian transvestite/drag community.

[Read online]

9. Fridolins heimliche Ehe (Fridolin's Mystical Marriage), by Adolf Wilbrandt (1875). First work in German that presents homosexuality in a positive light. What’s more, the main character claims his soul is both male and female, and he is attracted to both men and women. Another novel with a happy couple!

[Read online in German or in English]

10. The Intermediate Sex by Edward Carpenter (1908). Carpenter, a socialist and gay rights activist, was a significant figure for gay writers of the early 20th century. In this work, he writes about homosexuality, sexual libertaion and gender fluidity.

[Read online]

P.S. One should remember that these books are very much products of their time and, once again, they can seem problematic to a modern reader, often in more ways than one. Nonetheless, they are an important part of gay and lesbian history and would be of interest to anyone who is interested in this subject.

Stay tuned, more books to come!
