###**This episode’s musical references:** Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. It’s been a long time since the last episode of Jojo but here we are with another exciting Part. Stone Ocean is my favourite part and I’m so hyped or it. As last season I will cover the musical references of each episode. It’s a shame we lost Jojo Fridays and it will be release in batches. It has made this post more difficult to make as I didn’t have much time to do them all. This time my comments will be shorter but I’ll try to post all the references. I hope I don’t miss any. And now for this episode references: --- + Our new Jojo, Jolyne Cujoh is a reference to the song [“Jolene” by Dolly Parton.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ixrje2rXLMA) Dolly’s most famous song from her homonymous 1974 album. Jolyne is the first Jojo to have a name that it’s a musical reference. If you want to listen to more Dolly Parton I recommend you [her album “Coat of Many Colors” from 1971.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQjMCKq87N0&list=OLAK5uy_k5QFQ8QgmhwVunSjQKYiJqtBROA__CB8E&index=1) + The Green Dolphin Street Prison is named after [the Jazz standard song On Green Dolphin Street](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGVdAlxlp18) by Bronisław Kaper. The song was composed for the film Green Dolphin Street, which was based on a 1944 novel of the same name by Elizabeth Goudge. As a Jazz Standard it has been recorded by many Jazz legends like Miles Davis (my favourite version and the one that made it famous), John Coltrane, Ella Fitzgerald, Bill Evans, Sarah Vaughan or Tony Bennett. + Ermes Costello's surname is a reference to the British musician Elvis Costello. You may know him for his cover of the song “She” that appeared in the 1999 film “Notting Hill”. While his pop albums are good I prefer his rockier albums like [“My Aim Is True”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJTIIfhk2k4&list=OLAK5uy_n-mvT43vQGZxdNYrXHpi1mCM5SiWji_J4&index=1). [“Blood & Chocolate”]( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBS3rLdU69o&list=OLAK5uy_mXVt_hG0kubcOxlDTSKzfROcj7sckq05A) is another favourite of mine. --- Do you want to listen to all this fantastic references from this wonderful anime in just one place?
