7-13January2008 :: This Week
15Jan2008 [weekly]
- bought and am listening to Andrew Bird's Armchair Apocrypha; after last week's show I had to get something; not as raw as a live performance which, though not unexpected, was something of a let-down; the album has since grown on me, and am especially loving 'Simple X' ("Some people wake up on Monday morning / ... / with no explosions and no surprises")
- bought and am listening to the soundtrack for I'm Not There; there are a number of really good songs on here, and I'm loving the Mr Jones song ('Ballad of a Thin Man')
- watched American Gangster; really enjoyed it — didn't feel anywhere near as long as it actually was; Denzel Washington's performance is up there with Training Day, and Russell Crowe doesn't remind me of Russell Crowe, which is a good thing; lots of decent performances in the bit parts too — I'm convinced Common has an acting career in him, and TI is surprisingly good
