Amit 'The Groovebox' Gurbaxani on sex, drugs, lungis, ghungroos and rock n' roll. I really hope that the people behind this website have sent A. R. Rahman an invitation for the Bacardi NH7 Weekender festival. Rahman, reportedly, has yet to see a "true rock star" from India. He told the Hindustan Times , "Culturally, we are a family-bound society and rockstars are known to do all sorts of odd things." He does not specify, nor does the reporter clarify, exactly what was meant by "all sorts of odd things". Presumably, Rahman meant the [...]
So, yeah, well, this happened the other day.
Frankly we're as all over the place about SuperHeavy as the " superstar " band seems to be on their strangely over-hyped and under-heralded debut album arriving tomorrow. The basics: Mick Jagger , producer/ex- Eurythmic Dave Stewart, U.K. soul pop diva Joss Stone, rasta -rocker Damian Marley and Oscar-winning Indian soundtrack maven A.R. Rahman ( Slumdog Millionaire) get together to make some genre-blurring music. Is it simply a quick one-off marketing effort? Is it, as Stone says, [...]

Photo by G. Art by Shepard Fairey. Superheavy How do you make the supergroup Superheavy's album even bigger? Get Shepard Fairey to design the album cover. The band features Mick Jagger, Dave Stewart of Eurythmics, Joss Stone, Damien Marley and A.R. Rahman. I listened to a preview copy a few weeks ago and I didn't really care for the record. Production values are great, but I don't care for Joss Stone's diva vocals mixed with a rough sounding Mick Jagger to a reggae beat. I am open [...]

Five observations about "Miracle Worker," from the über-super-duper-group SuperHeavy — Damian Marley, Dave Stewart, Mick Jagger, A.R. Rahman and Joss Stone: 5) Pretty sure I saw five dudes in knit caps in Venice doing this song in 2003. 4) This is all for charity, right? How many structures could have been rebuilt, or people fed, in Haiti just on the budget from this music video alone? 3) Mick Jagger, cracking me up since 1964. 2) Joss Stone. ... and finally [...]
