A saturnine vision of the universe and an interest in the female form bordering on adoration have been two constants of Dennis Hopper's directorial work. Both are on display in this neo-noir, starring Don Johnson as cagey drifter Harry Madox, who picks up a job from used car lot owner George Harshaw (Jerry Hardin), soon after arriving in a small Texas town. Attracting women is not one of Harry's problems, and he's soon involved with Harshaw's innocent young bookkeeper, Gloria Harper (Jennifer Connelly), and his tough, sexy wife, Dolly (Virginia Madsen). An ambitious sort, Harry is also planning to rob the local bank. But things begin to get strange when he learns that Gloria is being extorted by nasty backwoodsman Frank Sutton (William Sadler), who also seems to be linked to Dolly. While not quite camp, the film is a triumph of style over substance, as the characters obey the highly improbable laws of the noir universe as religiously as any Kabuki performer does theirs. Working with longtime cinematographer Ueli Steiger, Hopper again reveals a fastidious eye, and the lavish photography of the women evokes an era when they were Hollywood's cynosure.

Witch CD  (2006)

Greatest Hits album
CD $12.19
On its 2006 self-titled debut, Witch offers up a weighty slab of classic, first-wave doom metal. Although the New England-based quartet's membership includes J. Mascis, the Dinosaur Jr. frontman sticks to drum duty on this fierce seven-song set, leaving the blistering leads to Asa Irons, who, along with vocalist Kyle Thomas, is also a part of the psych-folk ensemble Feathers. While Thomas's singing bears the influences of Marc Bolan and Robert Plant, Irons's six-string work takes more than a page from Tony Iommi's playbook, with crushingly ominous riffs alternating with wailing solos (see the lumbering "Soul of Fire" and the doom-laden "Rip Van Winkle"). Obvious inspirations aside, the tunes on WITCH pack enough punch to stand on their own merits, meaning devoted followers of unapologetically heavy rock have yet another band to worship.

 Chill Of An Early Fall
George Strait Chill Of An Early Fall CD  (1991)

Greatest Hits album
CD $7.05  Audio Samples Definitive Album
1991's THE CHILL OF AN EARLY FALL is the first album that George Strait released after the sudden ascendance of Garth Brooks as the new king of country music, a move that nudged Strait into the unexpected role of elder statesman after a half-decade in which he was the hottest thing in Nashville. Wisely, Strait doesn't try to reassert his primacy by mimicking the younger singer's more pop-oriented moves; instead, THE CHILL OF AN EARLY FALL is a reflective, quiet album in keeping with its autumnal title. The haunting title track is one of Strait's most effective ballads, but perhaps most interesting is the stretch of old-school country classics Strait essays on side two, completely traditional and heartfelt versions of Lefty Frizell's "Anything You Can Spare," Bob Wills's "Home In San Antone," Hank Williams's "Lovesick Blues" and Kokomo Arnold's "Milk Cow Blues." In this roots-conscious effort, Strait subtly reaffirms his connection to bedrock country music in the face of the increasingly pop-oriented focus Nashville would take in the coming decade. Personnel: George Strait (vocals, guitar); Steve Gibson, David Anthony (acoustic guitar); Brett Rowan, Rick McRae, Benny McArthur (electric guitar); Paul Franklin, Mike Daily (steel guitar); Gene Elders, Johnny Gimble (fiddle); Jim Horn (saxophone); Floyd Domino, Ronnie Huckaby (piano); Joe Chemay, Terry Hale (bass); Larrie London, Phil Fisher (drums).

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Great Monk
One of my introductions to Thelonious Monk is the CD Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with Thelonious Monk [Deluxe Ed.] on Rhino. He does some nifty stuff on the opening track of that CD--just flourishes, but he steals the song ("Evidence"). Greatest Hits is a very enjoyable listen. It has a lot to offer, and was never boring to me. It features live tracks as well as studio. I eventually want to purchase Monk Alone, however, because when another musician comes in, it's like an interruption to Monk's piano. I like what he does that much.
