Sheldon S. Wolin: Politics and Vision Expanded Edition
Continuity and Innovation in Western Political Thought
Incredible book, well written and enlightening. Highly recommended.
First heard of Wolin because of Chris Hedges who interviewd him few months prior to his death.

The one by Robin Kelley is terrific. It also raised the bar for future biographers of any jazz musicians.ric wrote:Just started the thelonious monk biography. finally back on track.

She's playing the Splash Festival which is not far away from me,

Re: Rolling non-rap 2015 check in thread
I haven't had a chance to play the entire album, but a few tracks via soundcloud. For a 32-piece orchestra, the compositions are pretty weak and I can't feel the 'spiritual' part in his music at all. I guess that if this was released on Cuneiform or similar, they wouldn't be celebrating it so much. ...

Discovered her recently, thought she's nice...
and if she keeps the right track as an independent, in 5 years.. even non-believers will be converted.

I've only listened to handful of songs shuffled in Spotify and I already like it more than Good Kid ... but the best possible thing that could happen with this album is that it gets a whole wave of teenagers/college kids into jazz. Plz recommend some good jazz. This is...
