A luminous, magical light drew me out of the house. It seemed the air was suffused with gold. All was still between rain showers. I grabbed my Nikon with an 18-70 mm zoom and headed for the Petaluma River.

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009Unabashed Rave Review
Saturday, October 3rd, 2009A few weeks ago, in September, there was a lot of media hyperbole about the release of the complete Beatles oeuvre in digital remaster.
The hyberbole was largely justified and even if you were laid off this month, especially if you were laid off this month, I would suggest shelling out the 16 bucks to get the White Album. There is tremendous value in this new package. You get an entire universe on these 2 cds.
The Beatles White Album is a full out masterwork, juxtaposing poignant rustic melodies with dense orchestral arrangements and careening rock and roll. Listen on high fidelity headphones to get the full effect! The new release overflows with an abundance of fidelity. Even if you have heard the songs one hundred thousand, million times, you will hear something new in these remastered cds. If you grew up listening to this sublimely creative LP, you will revel in the sound quality of this new release. If you have somehow never heard it, welcome to a plateau of all modern culture, an epiphany, a revelation. Don’t hesitate, you can even buy it at many Starbucks stores.
