The movie and Kung Fu TV star, 72, was in Bangkok shooting a film
American actor David Carradine has been found dead, hanging by a nylon rope in a hotel room closet in Bangkok, Thailand, according to a Thai police official.
The 90-year-old performer is one of many featured at this year's New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Under blue skies on the main stage, with his grandson by his side, they close the set with the Woody Guthrie classic "This Land Is Your Land."
Joan Baez is in a celebratory mood. And rightly so: She's survived 50 years in show business.
At times it may seem long gone, but the spirit of protest in popular music is not dead.
"This here ain't no protest song or anything like that, cause I don't write no protest songs."
Jerome White Jr. took the stage wearing an oversized baseball cap, baggy jeans and two gold chains -- an aspiring singer from the United States. The Japanese crowd heard a beat reminiscent of American-style hip hop -- but then White started to sing.
Just about every inspired film emerges out of some kind of obsession. The singular haunting beauty of "I'm Not There," Todd Haynes' thrilling deep-vision meditation on the music and many lives of Bob Dylan, is that obsession isn't just its fuel -- it's the movie's spirit and subject, its driving force.
I can tell you that some things in Russia may never change. No more than 10 minutes after we landed, my colleague walked through immigration only to have a male immigration officer query her single status and ask "Why no husband?"
Jac Holzman was in love with Love.

The song broke in the summer of 1965, a fired gun of a drum shot followed by words out of a fairy tale: "Once upon a time, you dressed so fine ..."
