Advantages: A couple of big tunes Disadvantages: Inconsistent
The Georgian Hip Hop duo consisting of members Smoke and Shawn Jay released their second album as Field Mob in 2002. ?From Tha Roota to tha Toota? was the album released prior to their international breakthrough with tunes such as ?So What?, and ?Georgia? once they had signed to Ludacris Disturbing Tha Peace record label. The duo broke through in 2000 and concentrated much of the lyrics about how country they live, but here they are able to diversify into more straight-forward rap.
1. ?K.A.N?
To start off the album you have them beginning things by doing one which initially has them rap about their pride in being one of few (including only the likes of David Banner, Nappy Roots and Bubba Sparxxx) and rapping about he type of thing which they represent as just this. It is a strong way to get things underway and remind you of what makes ...
Advantages: Very easy to follow, great photos Disadvantages: Un-necessary dig at Delia Smith in the intro.
"Cooking With Friends"
Published by Harper/Collins 2008
ISBN 978-0-00-726703-3
This is, to date, the best cook book I have ever read.
"Cooking With Friends" is a collection of over one hundred of Gordon Ramsay's personal favorite recipes. These are not elaborate, top TV chef, big production numbers; but are what he, and his family, cook and enjoy at home away from the blood, sweat and tears of Michelin starred restaurants.
Broken into easy to follow sections;
Hot & Cold Soups
Pasta & Grains
Fish & Shellfish
Meat & Poultry
Pies & Tarts
Vegetables & Salads
Puddings & Ices
Chocolate & Coffee
+ an extra chapter called 'Basics'; a simple guide on how to make stocks & pastries; very useful in my opinion, as getting those right is important to the outcome of many a dish.
What sets this cookbook apart from the millions ...
Advantages: Page turning gripping writing Disadvantages: Ends too soon.
What happens to someone who is unidentified in New York City when they need to be buried?
Its called The Potters Field.

Album Notes
Brokeback: Douglas McCombs (lap steel guitar, Fender Rhodes piano, acoustic & electric bass, 6-string bass, loops). Additional personnel: Mary Hansen (vocals); Rob Mazurek (cornet); Josh Abrams, Noel Kupersmith (acoustic bass); John McEntire (drums, percussion); John Herndon (drums). Recorded at James Bond Loft and Soma & Electrical Audio, Chicago, Illinois. Doug McCombs (Tortoise, Pullman, Eleventh Dream Day) is in love with his six-string bass--the same reason listeners are likely to be in love with this disc. FIELD RECORDINGS FROM THE COOK COUNTY WATER TABLE is gentle and beautiful post-rock (post-rock, the DMZ between indie-rock and contemporary instrumental), where the silence between the notes is as important as the notes themselves. With a focus on melody and mood rather than chops, McCombs delivers instrumental soliloquies that are both haunting and humble. Though the addition of sound effects (loons on one track, a train on another) might spell disaster in any other context, here they compliment the music in a wonderful way. With delicate and thoughtful contributions from Josh Abrams, Noel Kuppersmith, and others, plus a track sequencing that can't be beat, this recording is a joy from start to finish.
Album Reviews
Q (2/00, p.84) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...recalls Tom Verlaine's more spectral instrumental flights and...Duane Eddy. This is heavy on atmosphere and light on speaker-worrying grooves....a thing of beauty." Uncut (1/02, p.86) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Ambient, mazy and acoustic....Music that's truly 'American' in a way American music rarely is..."
