HBO Is Set To Release New Series About A Fictional Record Label From The 1970's, Directed and Conceptualized By Martin Scorcese and Mick Jagger

Set in 1970s America, Vinyl follows the fictional American Century Records, a label struggling to reinvent itself and capture a new sound. Boardwalk Empire’s Bobby Cannavale plays the record executive, with both Martin Scorcese and Mick Jagger conceptualizing and directing.

As part of the ‘set,’ Scorcese transformed Brooklyn’s Rough Trade record shop into a 1970-era Sam Goody. Perhaps resurrecting a more complicated Tower Records was too tall a task, though Colin Hanks has just released a documentary chronicling the rise-and-fall of the recording industry’s biggest retail outlet.

Certain musicians transcend genre, era and artistic approach.

America Isn't The Best Anymore...

We are a nation of immigrants, individuals and brash determination. When it comes to how we operate our daily existence, it is a DIY attitude through and through. What makes us one of the greatest nations on earth is our individual differences, but we forever remember when, why and how this country was founded

Forget about the arguments of political pundits seeking you to join one team or another. Stand up for what is right and what is good for we as a nation. Our two party system is flawed by the cult of personality and omnipresent greed. As individuals and citizens of this country, lets make it great again by being leaders in education, technology, business and most of all taking care of our own population in need of basic services. 

For as strong and proud we are as nation, poverty and ignorance still run rampant. To make America great again, lets start fixing local problems today.  

Below is an amazing speech given by Jeff Daniels from the show the Newsroom on HBO on why America Isn't The Best Anymore.
