To which may I recommend most of those garage/beat covers below. Plenty o' [...]

Someone needs to tell God, Jesus, Zeus, Mohammed, whomever , to chill the eff out on the celebrity deaths. The latest casualty unfortunately is Mr. Cool Ruler himself, reggae legend Gregory Isaacs , who passed away today at the untimely age of 59. I know I'm not alone in saying this but he was probably one of Jamaica's finest vocalists. In fitting tribute, here he is in a somber fashion covering House Of The Rising Sun by The Animals [...]

Most people don't know this but overweening indie film vagabond Vincent Gallo also moonlights as a musician. With a career that stretches all the way back to the 80s with the infamous experimental band GRAY (which also included late artist Jean-Michel Basquiat), his current solo work seems almost at odds with his prickly demeanor; beautiful, hushed, minimal acoustic songs that border on melancholic jazz or those quieter, more introspective moments of prog rock. And for those who may think this reeks of the worst kind of dilettantism, you need only look to the company he keeps, as collaborators [...]

While the specifics of my crimes are too lengthy to fill out today's blog posting, let's just say I've actually Been Caught Stealing twice in my life; once for a hard boiled egg, the other over a 5ml tube of Winsor & Newton Vermillion watercolour paint.

Those familiar with history of Billie Holiday etc. will know that her antics are on par with most great blue singers.
