Laurie Morvan – This is Your Brain on Music

By T. E. Mattox
in :  Entertainment

They say one of the only activities that can activate and stimulate the use of the entire brain…is music. If that is indeed true; my nomination for their blues poster child is Laurie Morvan. I have my reasons. Whether you're a left-brain analytical and methodical person or a right-brain creative and artistic individual; everyone has their comfort zones. Not Laurie Morvan, she taps the intellect of both sides and she does it all the time.

The Rosengart Collection: It All Happened by Accident

By Gary Singh
in :  Entertainment, World Travel

Picasso even famously sketched and painted Angela Rosengart herself. Another floor features David Douglas Duncan’s photographs of Picasso at work in his studio, including a few shots from October, 1963, with Angela sitting in a chair, as Picasso draws her. “I had to sit there and endure the looks from his eyes,” Angela tells me. “The looks were like arrows.”

The Comedian Harmonists:  The Most Famous Singing Group You’ve Never Heard Of

By Ruth J. Katz
in :  Entertainment

The show is presented by the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene (NYTF), the folks who brought us the amazing and highly acclaimed Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish. For the record, the Folksbiene is now in its 107th season, making it the longest consecutively-producing theater in the States, and not insignificantly, the world's oldest continuously-operating Yiddish theater company.  Harmony is being presented in the same location as Fiddler, in downtown Manhattan's Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, staged in the intimate Edmond J. Safra Hall. So, if you are going to be in Manhattan any time in the next month or so, snag a pair of tickets, as the show is selling out quickly.

By T. E. Mattox
in :  Entertainment

Albert Cummings is full of surprises. He’s been playing now for about a quarter of a century and his brand new album is scheduled for release in April. His credentials as a journeyman are legitimate and his followers will tell you, he’s known for his ‘live’ shows. Cummings has been described by journalists and fans alike, as a guitarist of ‘unbridled ferocity’ who also possesses ‘deep soulfulness.’ Albert just grins. “Mood Swings!” (laughing) “Ask my wife!” (laughing)

Quinn Sullivan: Music for a New Age

By T. E. Mattox
in :  Entertainment

I don't know what's in the water up in the Northeast portion of the U.S., but we need to ensure it never stops producing. I'm talking about the incredible guitar talent that comes from the State of Massachusetts. From Black Francis and Dick Dale to Little Steven and Susan Tedeschi; the richness and depth of talent is beyond belief. One of the latest prodigies is a 22-year old New Bedford guitarist named Quinn Sullivan.

Is chocolate the way to a person's heart? It seemed that the iconic screen star Cary Grant thought so when he devised a romantic tryst during a stay at the downtown Mayfair Hotel (now the Magnolia St. Louis). Grant would lodge at the hotel after performing at the adjacent Orpheum theatre. When his eyes first set on the18th floor suite, he was charmed by its 1930-40s glamour and style, and it became his designated suite of choice.

Five Favorite Albums of All-Time

By T-Boy Society of Film & Music
in :  Entertainment

The current T-Boy Society of Film & Music poll is devoted to our writers' five favorite albums of all-time. An album is a collection - in our case - of songs & music available in any forum; Vinyl, CD, Tape, etc. Initially, the theme of the poll was top five albums you'd take on a deserted island; but it made the poll a little confusing, plus we all understand the concept. It may be our most passionate poll, with some sending numerous revisions.
