...music sounds like the future and the past. Shivery acoustic guitar on top of spare, steady percussion with a high, husky voice piercing through it all. "In high seas or low seas/ I'm gonna be your friend..." Something about that voice--tremulous, tender, tough--recalls Bob Marley, more than a little bit. But check out the album credits. It's actually Stephen, one of Bob's sons, performing a remake of his father's classic High Tide or Low Tide. The song is one of many bewitching moments on Spirit of Music, the latest CD by Ziggy Marley (another...
...beginning--when I'm sitting down writing the music with an acoustic guitar. There's so much feeling, so much chills. We wanted to get that across."

The Republicans have been worrying about their right flank since Reagan invited ultra-conservatives into the tent, and running hard to the center since Bob Dole fell flat in 1996. Impeachment, as America shrugged all the way on its descent into Bill Bennett?s cultural hell, may have sealed the deal. Pragmatic governors and tax-cut hawks are the party stars, and social conservatives are simply not welcome on the national stage. Among the spurned...
...particular ingredient, was so fiercely serious that it provided entertainment aplenty. Now, though, the Food Network has fashioned it into perhaps the most exciting cooking show ever made, simply by adding a mix of dubbing and subtitles. In the show's current incarnation, you can listen to a Bob Costas-like commentator as he is interrupted by Christiane Amanpour-esque reports from the chefs' camps ("We can definitely see something being applied to the beef--and it's not bread crumbs!"). All that and usable tips on Asian cooking...
