The following is from the very interesting and engaging blog Middlebrow. The entry is specifically from Dr. Fred Sanders, professor of theology and “is widely recognized as the world’s greatest systematic theologian cartoonist.” MBD is an outstanding album from a great songwriter and band. I have reviewed it somewhere on […]

UPDATE: Ben Witherington has a review on his blog. He loved it! So I am looking forward to seeing it when it comes out. (And wondering how BW gets to see these earlier than the rest of us.) BW also adds some nice historical information. Once bit: What one needs […]
Our daughter’s that is. She has just started piano and is taking to it very well. “Old McDonald Had a Farm” never sounded so good. But this recital included students playing all sorts of instruments. The middle 45 minutes of violin was like one long Jack Benny routine with no […]
An open letter from the man himself. When you consider that the majority of music is still (apparently) sold via CD and that those are then “ripped” the whole DRM concern/model makes little sense. Go man, go.

Sufjan Stevens is an incredibly talented, if a bit bizarre, musician. Last year Ed Cook (known as Ralph the Sacred River to many of you) put me on to his music and even had a link to a set of three Christmas albums by Sufjan for free download! So I […]
