Part 1. N'dea Davenport by N'dea Davenport (1998) How can you tell an album is a timeless classic, transcending time, place and chart performance? Every time you listen to it feels like the first time. Fourteen years after the then-former Brand New Heavies frontwoman released her self-titled solo debut, every time my iPod stops on one of its songs (and it seems to happen at least once a day, thank God), I'm transported back to 1998. The reason for my near-daily time travel? It's certainly not that the album is [...]
Photo by G. Alfred E. Newman Cop Don't get MAD! I also spotted this sticker nearby, so I will go out on a limb and say it's the same artist. What me worry? Pipe/Cop [...]
The Historic Houses Trust in Australia has a forensic photography archive at the Justice & Police Museum which contains an estimated 130,000 images created by the New South Wales Police between 1910 and 1960.

Apparently George Galloway keeps in touch with his reality TV chums - he says he got Pete Burns released from a police cell . The Telegraph reports: "I got him out of jail," he says. "I had to go to a police station and pay a sum of money, of surety, to get him out of the cells." Pete Burns' spokesman (I suspect this might be Pete Burns pretending to be his own staff) confirms to the Telegraph that Galloway did help during an incident, but insists that no charges had been laid. Which does [...]
Photographer Jill Freedman did a ride-a-long with the NYPD from 1978 to 1981, and her black & white photos from that time are now on display at the Higher Pictures Gallery (764 Madison Avenue). [...]

The Boston Phoenix has a lengthy cover story on the murder investigation of "Craigslist Killer' Philip Markoff. I haven't read it yet, but it sounds like it'll be a great read. It includes some interesting side information about what happens when police subpoena Facebook to give up what it has on you , as relayed by The Atlantic Wire : As part of their story, The Phoenix obtained numerous police files via a Freedom of Information Act request and discovered that the caselog included a subpoena issued to Facebook for Markoff's profile information and Facebook's response. In addition to [...]
![[Listen] Memoryhouse: "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" (The Police Cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4159937_lg.jpg)
Hace unas cuantas semanas dentro de la serie A.V. Undercover tanto Shearwater como Sharon Van Etten decidieron hacerle un cover a la colaboracion que hiciera hace algunos años Steve Nicks con Tom Petty y ahora, dentro de la nueva edicion de esta serie en la que diferentes bandas se presentan para realizar algunos covers, Memoryhouse se dio a la tarea de hacer un cover que al menos en lo personal nunca espere que llegaran a hacer pese a que es muy conocido que este proyecto desde su aparicion a estado haciendo una serie de [...]

Brought together in the humble shape of a mint condition newborn, minus the screaming.. & minus the "you-know-what" (soon flowing afterwards..), thee edge, [...]
Boston Police seem to be setting out to recreate Footloose, only more messy. After a Flogging Molly gig at the House of Blues, the city has decided that there will be no more moshing in Boston : According to police, 60 concertgoers engaged in an "aggressive mosh pit dance," during which people were running and "colliding into each other," including some who were "knocked to the ground." No injuries were reported. So that sounds like a pretty typical mosh pit. Sure, not to everyone's taste, but enter at your own risk, surely? The cops, though, [...]
Since we're on the subject of '80s flops that deserved to be bigger hits... Oh, wait! We weren't? Well, it's a topic that's never too far from my mind, so let's discuss, shall we? What about "Ruthless People" by Mick Jagger? If you remember the song at all, you probably haven't thought about it since 1986, the year it appeared on the soundtrack to the Bette Midler-Danny DeVito film Ruthless People and peaked at No. 51 on the Hot 100. Today when my iPod landed on it while I was running up [...]
