SHARON JONES and the DAP-KINGS: The video for "100 Days, 100 Nights" was directed by Adam Elias Buncher, who achieved the old skool look using two vintage TV cameras bought on eBay for 50 dollars each. NEW RELEASES: Pitchfork will point you to Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Sunn O))), King Princess,and more. Oh, and Kanye West. INDIE BASEMENT wil point you to reeleases from Sean O'Hagan (High Llamas), and Mikal Cronin, The Gonks, and more. BIG THIEF plays CBS This Morning. R.E.M. shares the previously unreleased demo, “Uptempo Mo Distortion.” THE COWSILLS cover Mister Rogers' “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” And it's fan-tastic. GALANTIS & DOLLY PARTON have released a video called "Faith." INSIDE PRINCE'S ARCHIVE: Comic strips, goofy snaps and mirror selfies. KURT COBAIN's cardigan raises a record 334K at auction. PAUL BARRERE, the longtime guitarist and singer of Little Feat, died on Saturday at UCLA hospital. He was 71. THE NUMBER ONES looks at Leo Sayer's Leonard Cohen-biting white soul ballad, "When I Need You."
WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Joker remains atop the chart with another 18.9MM, becoming the biggest-ever R-rated movie world wide, with the sort of legs raising the question of whether it will be in the Best Picture discussion, or muscled out by the big contenders coming as we head into year's end (the beginning of which seems to creem further up each year). Maleficent: Mistress of Evil places with 18.5MM on a 50 percent slide, which likely means it's a dud if not a huge dud. The Addams Family shows with 11.7MM, down only 28 percent as Halloween approaches. Zombieland: Double Tap takes the fourth spot with 11.6MM, down 57 percent from its lackluster opening frame, meaning it likely won't match the original in theaters. Countdown rounds out the Top Five with 9MM, which is probably fine against a 6.5MM budget heading into the holiday. BEN AFFLECK had a sobriety setback. FELICITY HUFFMAN was sprung from prison after 11 days; she's now the hot TV interview. JANE FONDA recorded her BAFTA acceptance speech while being arrested. WHEN POP ICONOGRAPHY turns political. RYAN REYNOLDS congratulates the success of Joker as only former R-rated champ Deadpool could. HOW ELIZABETH BANKS took control of her career. THIS BLIND DOG has a guide dog. HUMMINGBIRDS, up close and personal. CAT AND BIRD, having an argument. BOBCAT vs RATTLESNAKE: Who you got?
