Aloha friends. Again, a lot of packing and unpacking in a new place meant that the column was on hold, but it will return this week. I am still looking for the CD's I meant to review two weeks ago, but I have a nice range of discs that I've received in the last few days, including music from Nas, Anna Maria Flechero, Sweet Baby J'ai, Anna Estrada, Wizdom & Epidemmik, Amy Lynn, The Mood, and more.
Until then, you can read some of my latest reviews courtesy of Okayplayer:
Natalia Clavier-Nectar
Karl Hector & The Malcouns-Sahara Swing
Ocote Soul Sounds & Adrian Quesada-The Alchemist Manifesto
Donna Summer-Crayons
Various Artists-Verve Remixed 4

"As a musician, i want the listener to hear the sounds as i intended when the track was recorded. if the basic file is compromised for any reason, the listener is being cheated." - Mike Sain

About Me
- John Book
- John Book has been a music journalist for 23 years. Along with being one of the original contributing editors to the "All Music Guide" in 1992, he was a contributing writer to "The Rocket", "Goldmine", and "Discoveries", along with over 70 different publications. His knowledge of music comes from 28 years of record collecting/accumulating, and a curiosity about those sounds embedded within leading to a lot of research. Outside of the music he listens to, he is also an artist/producer working under the name Crut. An album is being recorded for release hopefully before the end of 2007, with more to follow. On the web, he was the founder of the Unofficial Wu-Tang Clan Mailing List (U-WU), and had also done fan sites for Prince Paul and Ozomatli before devoting his focus on his own work. One of his major passions is to share information and history about the various aspects of recorded Hawaiian music in the 20th century. He is currently working on a book that he hopes will be the first of many to come.
