Mrs. Pinkney employs the blues to drive her splendid book. Like a powerful car, the author's text is in constant motion as it speeds forward trying to demolish the Jim Crow (segregation) laws of the South that said "Black people and white people could not mix." The author cleverly personifies Jim Crow as a bird with "bony wings" who did nothing but "peck peck peck." Mr. Pinkney^ dark, whirling, swirling illustrations bring his wife's superb text to life. Dr. [Nikki Giovanni] incorporates some of these spiritual songs (songs of the spirit) into her discourse as she guides'us through a brief history of slavery to the post-Civil War era, bringing it into the present represented by hip-hop music. The additional bonus of this enlightening book are the lyrics of the spiritual songs found at t...

Whether God is present at Club Zoo, it's still rock V roll - as in "sex, drugs and ..." One outrageously hammered fan sweats and shouts in smeared makeup: "I am a juggalo till the day I die! Everybody that is down, they care about everything. You can't feel it unless you're part of it. It's part of everything we do." The "it" is family, but it doesn't stop this fan from demanding sex acts from a reporter - to the mortification of the fan's apologetic girlfriend. Back in the day, I was diehard," he says. "I had enough [ICP] shirts to wear every day for a month." His horizons have widened, but he still goes to the shows, and at Club Zoo was in the pit in front of ICP. "Once you're a juggalo, you can't shake it." He recalls his mother picking him up after shows back in the day, "Her car s...

The scholarship on Brown generally references his narratives largely to find his agency elsewhere-in his spectacular performances on the antislavery lecture circuit, where Brown restaged his escape in the box and displayed his moving panorama, Henry Box Brown's Mirror of Slavery, and beyond, as Brown presented himself at various times as an African Prince, as "King of all Mesmerizers," and as "Prof. H. Box Brown," the magician (Ruggles 158, 167).2 In this way Brown can be recognized as a particularly creative performer who negotiated a kind of freedom by playing with and against the racial assumptions of American and British culture. Well aware of the cultural order that both resulted from and secured white dominance, Brown reports in the introduction of his 1851 Narrative that, though...

One of the most distressing aspects of the trend toward downloadable music is an inherent move away from the concept album concept. More and more, listeners are obtaining their music as YouTube videos or iTunes downloads, one song at a time. While this has done wonders for musicians who find themselves not backed by a major record label, and expanded more niche styles of music into the mainstream, the idea that an album -- an hour, say, of music -- can have a unifying musical theme or even a storyline is as endangered as any white rhinoceros or Florida panther. Concept albums, though, have a long and storied history. The most famous, perhaps, were created by the band Pink Floyd. "Dark Side of the Moon," for example, is considered by many to be the quintessential concept album. One song ...

Only a stage where a trio of blond CSUMB co-eds are comfortable singing Barry White's "Walrus of Love" and "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe" and a petite middle-aged man can improvise his own- dirtierversion of Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" can be labeled the best. Bobby Vegas, the Brit's 10-yearveteran MC, offers a vast variety of songs to choose from Mondays, Tuesdays and Sundays, some 5,000 all told, covering everything from Earth Wind & Fire to Third Eye Blind. Important note: That index also includes Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" and Sir Mix-aLot's "Baby Got Back. It's 5pm on a Thursday afternoon, and patrons circle the bar at Monterey's Crown & Anchor Pub. In a dark "Crown" sweatshirt and black shorts, server [Valerie Arveson] moves quickly on the floor, filling waters...
