These are a few of our favourite things...

(Click on the photos, where applicable, to visit these sites.)

A pinch of the absurd, a touch of espionage & a dash of style. These things & more made The Avengers one of the classiest shows ever created. Check out one of the most comprehensive sites about the classic duo of Steed & Mrs Peel. (Also, you'll find out why Jamie dresses so weird...)

Kevin Gilbert was a prodigal musician, creating incredible tapestries of music & lyrics unlike anyone else. He was likened to the Mozart of his generation by some of the most revered people in the music industry, garnering several Grammys for his work on other people's projects in the process, yet he & his music are still largely unknown.  Debbie Miller has two incredible sites dedicated to this late, lamented genius. Stop on by, check 'em out & tell her The McClanahans sent'cha!

There are a few people out there who are familiar with current King Crimson co-guitarist extaraordinaire Adrian Belew, but no too many people are aware of another on-again / off-again project that he's been associated with since the late '80s -- THE BEARS. Well, wonder no more!! Cruise on over to Adrian's official site, or you can go directly to The Bears' official website & check out all the glory!!! (Also, while yer there, pick up their spankin' new CD -- they make great gifts!!!)

Does anyone remember back when MTV used to show music videos? Yep, campers, long about 1981, ol' "Empty Vee" actually used to air videos that had music in 'em & one of the perennial bands of that era was The Producers. These four power-popsters from Atlanta, GA. still perform around their hometown & surrounding areas & they're still kickin' arse! Their first two albums -- "The Producers" & "You Make the Heat" -- are finally set to be released on a double CD late November. Head on over to Paul Schultz's wonderful Producers website & relive the good ol' days before corpaorate radio stations, when you could actually find talent on the airwaves!

You love "it". You need "it". "It" gets your day going. If you don't get enough of "it", you can get really cranky! You remember the first time you got "it" & you always look forward to the next time you can get "it". Books have been written about "it", shops are devoted to "it", there's even a city that's notorious for selling "it". There're even devices created that help make "it" more enjoyable & sensual. What is "it"? COFFEE!! (What the hell did you think "it" was... ya pervs!) Bassist extraordinaire & fellow coffee connoisseur Tony Levin has a section of his website dedicated to coffee & the love of it. Why'n'cha brew up a pot & swing on by?

XTC -- quintessential English band or misunderstood quote from a Jimmy Durante movie?  You be the judge!

(And no, Andy is not nor has he ever been a member of The Partridge Family!!)

Gaze into my eyes... you're getting sleeeeeeeeeeeepy, veddy sleeeeeeeeeepyyyy! Okay, maybe not... never was very good at that. However, our good friend, Cherie Kay, is very good at hypnosis. Stop by her site & find out where she's performing. Pretty damned spiffy, if we do say so ourselves... & we do!
