I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

New CD Album Releases, 7-28-2009: Georgia Anne Muldrow, Fabolous Haven't had the opportunity to hear it, but Georgia Anne Muldrow is back this week with Umsindo. I know she's got talents as a singer and a songwriter and arranger, as creator of one of the best records of 2006. This should be worth hearing.
Beyond that, Fabolous is back with Loso's Way, nominally a concept album inspired by the movie Carlito's Way. I seem to remember he had a half listenable hit a few years back. Don't know that I'm holding my breath for any major artistic statement here, though.
