Analog disruption


I'd watch that Fame 45 (Im Just a Prisoner by Candi Staton) go around in circles and there was just something about that record that made me look close enough to discover it was recorded in a place called Muscle Shoals, Alabama. I imagine I had no choice but to watch this YouTube thing that was suggested to me via recommendation engine, cause it was a day in the life of Fame. You'd have to watch all the way through, but if you watch the video to the end you see the musicians actually punch out for the day on a time-clock by the door! This is a little bitty old thing in the style which we used to call Cinema Verite.
