Ellen M. Wilson – Destiny (CD)

  Destiny’s Alone is a track that will immediately bring listeners on board with Ellen M. Wilson.

The track keeps listeners firmly focused in, despite…

Boss – Season One (DVD)

Any fear that Kelsey Grammer would always be locked into his beloved Frasier character is gone within the first few episodes of the remarkably captivating political drama Boss. With simmering tyranny, hidden behind the public mask of the genial mayor of Chicago, Grammer infuses Mayor Tom Kane with a ferocity and vindictiveness that makes Tony Soprano look like… well Frasier. The show, so far the crown jewel of cable start-up…

Power Chord: One Man’s Ear-Splitting Quest to Find His Guitar Heroes by Thomas Scott McKenzie (Book)

Like many teenage boys who grew up in the 80’s Thomas Scott McKenzie was a big fan of metal. Aqua-netted guitar gods, from the top-tier (Motley Crue and Kiss) to the B-listers (Slaughter and Stryper), he subscribed to the “if it’s too loud, you’re too old,” philosophy when it came to rock. But unlike many of us who were wooed away by grunge in the early 90’s he stuck with…

Kasabian – Kasabian Live at the 02 (DVD and CD)

Like Robbie Williams, The Libertines and Klaxon, Kasabian is one of those uniquely British bands that does (and in The Libertines case, did) remarkably well in their own country, but only manage to pull together a small, albeit rabid, following here in the U.S.   Kasabian Live at the 02 – a concert DVD and accompanying CD of the show recorded last December – should serve as proof that they…

Smashing Pumpkins – Pisces Iscariot: Deluxe Edition

Pisces Iscariot, a collection of b-sides and rarities from the Smashing Pumpkins, initially cameout  at a pivotal time for the band, sandwiched between Gish and the wildly-successful Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, the band  was about to become among the biggest rock starts of the 90’s.   I’m not exactly spilling any industry secrets when I say rarities collections are seen as little more than placeholders for record companies…

King Tuff – S/T (CD)
