Fleetwood Mac: Rhiannon


ID magazine: Is Smell the Magic inspired by Spinal Tap?
Suzi: No, Smell the Magic does not have anything to do with Spinal Tap. It has to do with driving through Indiana at two in the morning and smelling a refinery, or whatever it was. It was stinking good.
Donita: And Stevie Nicks was on the radio. Hence Smell the Magic. Stevie Nicks with this foul smell.
Man, I thought L7 were cool. But if you associate Stevie Nicks with foul smells there's no way that you're cool.

The plush beneath your feet



Ever since the dawn of time man has separated himself from the lifeless earth beneath him with carpets.
Nowhere has this renunciation of man's transience been more joyous or uplifting than in the medium of airport carpets.
From Santiago to Sydney, from Bishkek to Boston, the airport carpet sings out its inviolable song, a sign of man's refusal to go drably into that dark night of international travel.
Such aesthetic intimacy, poetry and passion, has for too long gone unnoticed by the modern traveler.
Until now.

Taped on the VCR, just like your Mum used to do.
