Ms. Rose is backing Mr. Reed's mayoral bid in the December 1 runoff : "Yesterday it seemed...

Compare and Contrast (An Occasional Series): Blues With a Feeling

Saw the Maysles Bros. new Rolling Stones flick Get Yer Ya-Yas Out the other day -- my review will be up over at Box Office momentarily I think -- and one of the best scenes is Mick and Keith doing an unplugged version of "You Gotta Move." Mick, at his most transparently disingenuous, prefaces it by saying "We've been trying to find out who wrote it, but we don't know." Actually,...

wave pictures at the garage, islington

Although my birthday was a month ago, I had a lovely second pass at being spoiled this weekend, when Anne-So and Rich took me not only for a delicious curry in London but also to see the final date on the Wave Pictures current Uk tour, at the Garage in Islington. Of course, it's as ridiculous to talk of touring schedules with the Wave Pics as it is to talk of album release cycles. Since I first stumbled,...

Rocco's Modern Life: Rocco responds

I wrote about the tribute paid by National Endowment for the Arts Chairman Rocco Landesman to President Obama in Rocco's Modern Life." Landesman hailed Obama as "the first president that [ Ed.: ouch! ] actually writes his own books since Teddy Roosevelt and arguably the first to write them really well since Lincoln[.]" Seeking to move Obama to an even more world-historic plane, Landesman...

Rod Stewart Strikes Again

Last week , I wrote about Rod Stewart, and how sickened I was to see his name attached to a Sam Cooke LP. This week… well, it gets worse, folks, it gets worse. Plastered all over Boston are ads for Rod Stewart’s most recent album (released on Tuesday), entitled Soulbook . You can tell it’s a terrible album just by looking at the CD cover (see left). It is vomit-inducing. What, Rod,...

Shall We Dance?

Just watched Harold and Maude again, classic film. Bud Cort as Harold with his banjo dancing along the California cliffs made me think about my favorite dance scenes in movies (exluding musicals). For your consideration: 1. Some Like It Hot - Jack Lemon in drag and Joe E. Brown, as funny as it gets. Watch it and try not to laugh. 2. Witness - Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis dancing and romancing to...

Who would've thought cheaply copying Sam Cooke could sound this good?

You can't spend the night... Yes, I'm sure you're right. You can't spend the night... Yeah, I'm sure you're right. You can't spend the night... Yes, I'm sure you're right. But we could spend the night together. Or alone. That would be better. It's Friday night and I ain't got nobody. Oh, what's the use of making a bed? I took something and it feels like karate; it's kicked me down and left me for dead....

The Jackson family stated it is not Michael’s signature on the will. Additionally, the will that was signed in Los Angeles, conflicts with photographic evidence showing...
