Lennon Flakes

It was reported that John Lennon once confessed in 1980 magazine interview that the song “Good Morning, Good Morning” from The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was actually inspired by a television commercial for 1967 Kellogg’s Corn Flakes. The jingle went: "Good morning, good morning, The best to you each morning, Sunshine Breakfast, Kellogg's Corn Flakes, Crisp and full of fun".

Unfortunately, this isn’t it, but here’s one of Corn Flakes commercials from 1960’s . It's funny, weird and kind of ahead of its time.

LUCKY THREE (Jem Cohen film)


     Take a short break (11:43 mins) between the session playlists with one of my favorite videos. 
Here's Lucky Threea short film directed by Jem Cohen featuring the tortured-life folk singer-songwriter Elliott Smith. The film was recorded in 1996 in portland, oregon, just before Elliott became famous as a result of Good Will Hunting, before the long alcohol and drug, and before he was stabbed in the heart by himself or someone else...
     In the video, we'll see Elliott performing three songs acoustically: Between the Bars, Thirteen (a Big Star cover) and Angeles. Elliott once described Lucky Three as "a cross between a video and a documentary, but actually being neither of the two."
The film is available on Kill Rock Stars' Video Fanzine #1 release.
