Album from the Vaults:
The Who, “A Quick One”: The second album by the British rock band was released in 1966. Deemed as their first concept endeavor and a traipse into a more rock-heavy sound, the record was influential to the band’s success. Plenty of good listening to be had with this suggestive work.
Movie from the Vaults:
“12 Angry Men”: This film is intense, to say the least. The duality between objectivity and subjectivity is put on display as a group of jurors are challenged to bypass their own personal biases in order to achieve a just decision. A movie that is strongly rooted in allowing commonplace misconceptions from leading us down the wrong path,12 Angry Men is a classic.
