DJ Psycut offers here a superb tribute mix to Larry Blackmon from Cameo , without any soft indulgence towards 'mainstream' -nevertheless excellent- tracks like Find My Way , Rigor Mortis , Shake Your Pants , Word Up or Candy ... Continue reading
I just bought the Cameo Anthology this week - two discs of extreme funk. Mainly I was thinking of their biggest hit, "Word up," which has been covered over a dozen times. It's a great song, and I think a lot of singers just love shouting "Word up," but the bass guitar riff that gets repeated throughout the song is brilliant. Anyway, I can't find any proof that Larry Blackmon, Cameo's...

I know I speak for all middle class suburban white males in their late thirties when I ask: “Where the hell is Larry Blackmon'?” Okay, well maybe not - but I do get nostalgic for the funky old days of Cameo from time to time. They were one of the first live acts I ever saw, [...]
The USA TODAY has a new ‘cast preview’ for JJ Abrams’ Star Trek , with pictures and blurbs about each of the new crew. Much of it is old news but there are a couple of interesting tidbits. The first is on Chris Pine (Kirk) getting a hair style (and advice) from William Shatner. [...]
The new computer is truly broken in now ... I watched a Blu-ray movie on it, Hairspray. I don't know what to talk about first, the movie or the technology. OK, the movie. It's not really the kind of movie...
Raven-Symoné stars in a family comedy so base and shoddy it could be titled That's So Craven. She's a very mature-looking high-schooler with her heart set on Georgetown University. But her helicopter father (Martin Lawrence) wants to keep her closer to home, at Northwestern. (Most parents would be delighted if their child got into either of these universities.)
I’m about to make an admission that might make you question my overall taste in movies… I didn't hate the first Fast and the Furious movie. (...) Comment on this now or read more at slashfilm.com . Tags: Jordana Brewster , Michelle Rodriguez , Paul Walker , The Fast and the Furious 4 , Vin Diesel
This has always been a dark pleasure of mine that I'm constantly ridiculed for among my circle of friends, but I LOVE the Fast and The Furious franchise. To be sure, I certainly concede the productions firmly float in the shallow end of the pool. But as a car nut, the flicks are pure brain-rotting [...]
Back in December the cinetrix made a promise to write about Steve Erickson's excellent new novel Zeroville when she had "the time to do it justice." She's beginning to fear that day will never come. But she suspects that if...

When the Cricket was a teen-age pupa, he stayed up late and alone one Saturday night watching John Carpenter's "Halloween" on HBO - with the lights off for full effect. Needless to say, the movie scared the crap out of the young Cricket, who has never forgotten the experience of solitary horror viewing. This weekend, the Cricket repeated the experience - sort of - by watching Michael Haneke's...
