RIP Dennis Hopper–Saturday Nite Nostalgia

I really didn’t know of any other way to show respect to the great late actor of such great films like “Easy Rider”, “Apocalypse Now” and “Blue Velvet” except to to a Saturday Nite Nostalgia playing music from the soundtracks of these three films.

Willy Loman beat me to it, but selected only tunes from “Easy Rider”.  So I will only play one “Easy Rider” tune and the rest from Apocalypse Now. I don’t much fancy the music to “Blue Velvet” and I don’t really want to play the Bobby Vinton song.

“It’s All Right Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)” –Roger McGuinn — one Easy Rider song that is not on Willy Loman’s page. Click the above link to view the other videos and hear some other great tracks from that great movie.

“The End” from their first album, arguably the best effort from The Doors. It was also the intro song to “Apocalypse Now”

“Satisfaction” –The Rolling Stones. The song isn’t that loud but it was meant more as background to an obviously lighter hearted scene in “Apocalypse Now”

Happy Saturday Nite All!
