In my list of classic R&B / soul performers, Otis Redding easily lands in my top 5. It’s criminal after all of these years of enjoying Redding’s music, my overall knowledge of his complete output is still woefully incomplete. I definitely need to dig further into his catalog, and one of these days, I will do that. For now though, my eyes and ears perked up when I read the news that Shout! Factory had a new CD/DVD retrospective planned to further celebrate Redding’s legacy. Otis

What a difference 10 days make.

You might remember that in July, Frago was busted for racial emails including one that read, “Breaking News Playboy just offered Sarah Palin $1 million to pose nude in the January issue. Michelle Obama got the same offer from National Geographic.” Now he’s back with over 200 emails most of which were racist, sexist or off color.

In what’s hopefully indicative of future trends, the upcoming Guitar Hero 5 for Nintendo Wii has the ability to stream content — in this case, extra songs — directly from the SD card. Up until now, everything from the card had to be transferred to 512MB internal memory before use, meaning you’d be pretty limited if making that near-endless set list of premium downloaded tracks.

Today’s reader gets informed online, and for next-to-nothing. Picture by Lumaxart at Dreamstime It was once said of Britain’s scurrilous newspaper The Sun that its very existence proved you couldn’t buy anything for 25 pence any more.
