Extra-P visits Ameoba Records

I'm posting this for 2 reasons:

(1) The Large Professor is an excellent producer

(2) I've been to Ameoba in San Francisco. It's my spiritual home. I can literally spend 8 hours in there, just staring at the walls. In terms of hero-worship, the dude who owns these record shops is my God. If you like vinyl music, you must make the pilgramage to this store shop. In fact, I need to book a trip to the States soon, if only to do some shopping.

Public Enemies - Review

I saw this film last night, and here's my review: "It was alright." Stick that on your posters Universal Pictures!

-

Depp was very good as Bank Robber extraordinaire John Dillinger, 'Edith Piaf' was very good, Christian Bale was very Christian Bale, if you know what I mean. Michael Mann made it all look very shiny as he usually does (plus, this was essentially 'Heat' set in the 30's; driven bank robber is chased by driven lawman), but it was missing an emotional centre for me. I wasn't rooting for anyone. There was a slight injection of romantic tragedy in the last minutes, but by then it was too late.

So in summary; better than Mann's 'Miami Vice', but no match for 'Heat'.
