Appalachian Stomp is an ideal starter disc for those just beginning to explore bluegrass. Mostly this is because its 18 selections are so immediately accessible. The “classics” here, in other words, are usually those infrequent bluegrass cuts to have gained radio recognition beyond a core bluegrass audience. That explains why along with timeless standards such as Flatt & Scruggs’ “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” and the Osborne Brothers’ “Rocky Top” we also get “Dueling Banjos” from the film Deliverance, a cut that is to classic bluegrass what Walter Murphy is to Beethoven. There are less immediately obvious choices too, though. If your previous exposure to bluegrass doesn’t go beyond the Holy Trinity of Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, and the Stanley Brothers–for example, if you’ve never heard J.D. Crowe & the New South’s stellar example of progressive bluegrass, “Old Home Place,” or experienced Jimmy Martin lay down the law on his rousing “You Don’t Know My Mind”–then you’re in for a high-lonesome surprise. –David Cantwell Customer Review: Bluegrass music It’s the best ‘Bluegrass’ CD that I’ve heard in quite a while…I would suggest it to anyone who loves Bluegrass!!!

Out of Africa (Widescreen Edition)
Sydney Pollack’s 1985 multiple-Oscar winner is a sumptuous and emotionally satisfying film about the life of Danish writer Karen Blixen (Meryl Streep), better known as Isak Dinesen, who travels to Kenya to be with her German husband (Klaus Maria Brandauer) but falls for an English adventurer (Robert Redford). The film is slow in developing the relationship, but it is rich in beautiful images of Africa and in the romantic tone surrounding Blixen’s gradual discovery of her life and voice. One downside: while we may all love Redford, he is as convincingly British as Kevin Costner is in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. –Tom Keogh Customer Review: Very good cinematic experience Enjoyed the storyline and it had a strong cast; just not as enticing as other movies of the same genre that I have scene. Still recommend viewing it as 3 and above are “worth seeing” from my perspective. Very good use of 1.5 - 2 hours.

Office Space - Special Edition with Flair (Widescreen Edition)
Unable to endure another mind-numbing day at Initech Corporation, cubicle slave Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston) gets fired up and decides to get fired. Armed with a leisurely new attitude and a sexy new girlfriend (Jennifer Aniston), he soon masters the art of neglecting his work, which quickly propels him into the ranks of upper management! Now the stage is set for Peter to carry out a high-tech embezzling scheme that’s sure to mean the end of his job and a one-way ticket to easy street. Can he pull it off before all corporate hell breaks loose? Customer Review: Cult movies are not always great Since its release in 1999, Mike Judge’s dedication to all slaves of their cubicles has become a cult movie with many devoted admirers. I believe the reason being - majority of us have to work and many are not very happy with their jobs or job environment. If asked, everyone may recall to having a boss from hell, to be annoyed by changing every week TES (Time Entering System), by the printer or copy machine that seem to hate you and break on you every time you need to print or copy something. Well, with all recognizable funny and sad details of the modern office environment that show Judge’s observant eye and wicked sense of humor, the movie is not a great one and not always a good one. It is an average comedy that had interesting potentials but is too long for its length and loses its steam somewhere after first thirty minutes. It’s got too many subplots and supporting characters that were neither interesting, nor necessary, for example, the romance between Peter and a local waitress (Jennifer Aniston). A moneymaking scheme that Peter and his friends devise belongs to the different movie and Peter’s transformation in the end does not seem to be plausible. I was happy for Milton though. 6.5/10

Inside job
Often taken to task for the maudlin mellowness of his back catalog, Don Henley’s viewpoint on Inside job is frequently as astringent as any of the best of his solo work, if refreshingly more stylistically diverse. Whether skewering the self-absorbed target of “Nobody Else in the World but You” with some welcome funk or lambasting the corporate co-opting of Mother Nature in “Goodbye to a River,” Henley still wears his heart proudly on his sleeve. But the changes in his life have also blunted a previous propensity for self-righteousness into something more akin to subtle, resigned irony, and this album wears it well, especially on strangely downbeat “celebrations” like “For My Wedding.” Featuring a typically all-star cast of guest musician pals (including Stevie Wonder, Randy Newman, Glenn Frey, and Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench), coproducer Stan Lynch (formerly of Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers) has helped Henley fashion a more timeless, deftly shaded production envelope that should age better than most. Though he still can’t help lament his world’s hardening and loss of innocence (to the point of “They’re Not Here, They’re Not Coming,” echoing Randy Newman’s “Trouble in Paradise” nostalgic plea to “bring back the Duke of Earl”), Henley does it here with a subtle grace that may just win him a few new, late-blooming fans. It’s an album that underscores how quickly life’s fine wine can unexpectedly turn to vinegar. –Jerry McCulley Customer Review: Yuck Now I know why I never picked this up when it first came out…ah, the pitfalls of a completist. NOWHERE near his three 80’s releases. Don should spend his time fighting for the environment instead of music.
