A nice collection of digitally remastered blues guitar pieces, many of which I wasn't previously familiar with. Any blues compilation that includes Jimi Hendrix is pretty alright in my book, though.
A lovely and breathy experience, punctuated by sweet acoustic guitar. India.Arie reminds me of Erica Badau. Very relaxing, very sexy.
" Frank Herbert's Dune is a three-part, four-and-a-half-hour television adaptation of the author's bestselling science fiction novel, telling a more complete version of the Dune saga than David Lynch's 1984 cinema film."
Uh, yeah. 'cause David Lynch's version is incomprehensible. This one is pretty good and fairly recent (2000). Quite exciting and the effects are good, tho' the lighting is a bit over the top sometimes. A bit long to watch in one go (or even two), and as always, it helps if you've read the book.
A couple of older albums for a mellow Sunday afternoon. Fugees' The Score is an old favourite, especially the last, multi-lingual version of Fugee-la.
"I really thought I’d gone to his house, you know, to heal our spiritual divide. But it turns out I was just gagging for a shag. Those two are so similar. "
The hilarious Friends look-alike returns for another season on BBC Two. Alike, but different.
"You are my wife now! Want to buy some pegs, Dave?"
A local show for local people, the wacked out residents of Royston Vasey are back on BBC Two.
"I don't give a fuck, not a single fuck, not a single solitary fuck, 'cause I don't give a fuck, mother-fucker."
Could lyrics be better than that?
Upbeat California thrashy. Heaven is a Halfpipe is the best known track, but Dealerman and Undercover Freak are worthy of being classics, in my opinion. Brighter Side and Better Daze are both pretty and mainstream. Such a great album.
Some forgettable tracks, but some fab ones as well. Think Shaft with sitar music.
Not every track is great, but there're some real gems including Mundian to Bach Ke by Panjabi MC and Agoraki Mou by Angi Samiou. I'm jealous that my friends Napes and Suz went to the Buddha Bar last time they were in Paris...
