Conclave - Brian Lynch Latin Jazz Sextet

Jokes + Guitars = Stephen Lynch

Advantages: A different take on comedy, great social commentary
Disadvantages: Some tracks can be a little basic or short

Stephen Lynch is an American stand-up comedian and musician from Pennsylvania and he specialises is jokey songs mocking everyday life and plying on social stereotypes and clichés. He has four albums out, two studio relases and the other two are live performances. He also has his own Comedy Central specials and starred as the lead character in the Broadway adaptation of 'The Wedding Singer,' a performance which he recieved an award nomination for. Stephen moved to New York to pursue his career and from starting in comedy clubs, he is now well known in the US, a regular on TV and radio and is expanding his global fanbase rapidly. When I first heard his music I thought it was a bit cheesy and camp, but I have now come to realise that this is part of its appeal. I had been shown him by a couple of people (one of whom is a ciao member ...

Review of Craig Machine, The [PA] - Stephen Lynch

HONDA JAZZ 1.4 SE CVT-7. AUTOMATICALLY BETTER?

Advantages: Great Transmission. Smooth Engine. Low Running Costs. Hugely Spacious Interior. Build Quality.
Disadvantages: Messy Dashboard Styling. Uninspiring Exterior Styling.

WHAT IS IT? The Jazz is Honda's entry into the highly contested and ever popular "supermini" market. It is a five door hatchback, a very simple range to choose from as there are no variants; saloon, convertible etc, all Jazz models therefore share the same "two box" styling. For those of you to whom it may be important, the dimensions are as follows: Length 3845mm x Width 1878mm x Height 1525mm. It is therefore a fairly short, yet wide and tall small car, having a tardis affect inside where it seems much larger than you would think looking at the car sitting next to the pavement. There are any number of competitors from Japanese, Korean and European countries, probably its' most likely competition can be found in the form of the Ford Fiesta, Mitsubishi Colt, Nissan Micra and Vauxhall Corsa, all of which offer a much larger ...

Review of Honda Jazz

Jazz up your motoring

Advantages: space, comfort, flexibility, fuel economy
Disadvantages: absolutely none for me

Having endured a horrifying M5 breakdown in my 5 year old Escort not long ago, I decided the time was right for a new car. And I wanted brand new, in the hope that I would be guaranteed a few years trouble-free motoring (and hopefully no sudden expenses) with a good warranty and some peace of mind. In my new car, I wanted the following features: Light and easy to drive Comfortable seating and leg room in the back Fuel economy A good sounding stereo Affordable insurance Quiet and reasonably powerful engine Safety Good looks Flexibility (i.e. can take large packages/suitcases etc when necessary) A make with a strong reputation for reliability Extra gizmos Under (preferably considerably under) £10,000 A lot to ask? Yes, but then along came the Honda Jazz? Criteria 1: Light and easy to drive My Honda Jazz drives ...
