Ask James Eason!

[Skinner]

Dear James Eason,
I was wondering:
Who the fuck are those 2 people at the beginning of "Sunshine of My Life" by Stevie Wonder? Where did they come from? Where do they go? They disappear after two lines! I mean, that's kind of weird, right?
Thanks!
-Eliza

I've got a reconstructed '30s vintage tenor sax and a box of #2 reeds sitting in my apartment, and it pains me to watch it collect dust. Can you make me a better player?

[Resnik]

James-

I was recently told that the Schwarzenegger movie, Commando, was originally rated X because there's a scene where Ah-nold rips off a baddie's leg and beats other baddies with it. Is this true? If so, does the edited footage exist somewhere?

Also, in the movie, Network, after Howard Beale gets his show, they do a huge intro to it where they introduce all the different guests (Cybill the Soothsayer, Vox Populi, etc). But they introduce one guy and refer to his segment as "It's the Emmitts Truth" (or something like that). What are they actually calling it? Is it a reference to Emmis Communications?

Thanks in advance,
a pony

[Mo Nose]

James,

Do you think that Redwood trees are like Redheads with the whole pain thing? I mean, think about it, in the Redwood Forest there are those tress that have been cut through to demonstrate how big they are and you know that HAD to have hurt.

Also, if I were to start digging the Jazz, what would be my first album of introduction?

Thanks!

 

[Garrett]

James,

Should I help Mr. Woo Fang out? I could really use the money, and working with the Chinese could be very fun. I like to think I'm worldly, so this job is perfect for me.

All the best,

Garrett
