Counterpoint: Charles Mingus deserved every penny he had coming to him for his revolutionary jazz music and cat toilet training guide.

Bought Dylan's Self Portrait at a chazza today for 50p. I thought it was supposed to be terrible but enjoying it very much. How can you dislike an album that starts with a track like All The Tired Horses?

A fascinating interview with Mark Lewisohn, by far the world's best informed Beatles expert. As well as discussing the excellent Evolver: 62 film, Mark explains exactly how he transforms his research into a very readable, informative volume.
