This Video narrated by Amy Nieskens is from The Old Farmer’s Almanac.

From The Old Farmer’s Almanac:
Historically, the Native Americans who lived in the area that is now the northern and eastern United States kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to the recurring full Moons.

Each full Moon name was applied to the entire lunar month in which it occurred.

These names, and some variations, were used by the Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior.

This full Moon appeared when wolves howled in hunger outside the villages. It is also known as the Old Moon. To some Native American tribes, this was the Snow Moon, but most applied that name to the next full Moon, in February.

After wrapping their rock feature CBGB, Randall Miller and Jody Savin are hoping to keep the music going with a new music-themed project, this one on famed recording studio Caribou Records.

Miller and Savin will write the script with Miller directing the project. It will produce via their Unclaimed Freight banner along with Brad Rosenberger, their music business partner.

Titled Caribou Records, the movie will aim to tell the story of the music studio run by James William Guercio in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.

Guercio was a record producer who also managed Chicago. From around 1971 to 1985, when a fire destroyed the studio, Caribou was the site of recordings by Paul McCartney, Elton John — who titled his chart-topping 1974 album Caribou after the studio — Chicago, Joe Walsh and Amy Grant, among others.

The filmmakers will work with Guercio on the film, mining his stories, and the music man will serve in a producer capacity.

Miller said they gravitated to Guercio because of his maverick personality.

“He left Hollywood to go to the wilds of Colorado and put everything on the line,” said Miller. “Everyone thought he was nuts. But all these artists — from John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Elton John, the Beach Boys — came out there. He’s basically this young guy who had a crazy dream.” read more…
