20080620 Mark Jackson, The Broken Blossoms, and Half Japanese

Mark Jackson, The Broken Blossoms, and Half Japanese

THE BROKEN BLOSSOMS: Lily

I was doing some research on the classic silent movie from 1919, “Broken Blossoms,” by D W Griffith which starred Lillian Gish; and I came across this video, “THE BROKEN BLOSSOMS: Lily”

I immediately thought of Mark Jackson, an account executive for Patuxent Publishing Group. So this is dedicated to Mr. Jackson. Please enjoy.

Although what Mark would want to hear is something from “Half Japanese”:

HALF JAPANESE - The Band That Would Be King

Some say Half Japanese were the world's greatest underground band. Jad and David Fair started the band HALF JAPANESE in their bedroom in Uniontown, Maryland in 1975. Though neither could play a single note on any instrument, they went on to record one of the greatest albums of all time.
