What I'm Digging - September 8, 2006
Books
Scott says: "Okay I'm only a bit into this but I'm gonna make a snap judgement anyway and say: READ IT!"
Music
Illinois aka Come On Feel The Illinoise by Sufjan Stevens
Scott says: "A lyrical tour through the state that even has a lovely song about John Wayne Gacy."
The River In Reverse by Elvis Costello & Allen Toussaint
Scott says: "Costello set out to make a songbook of Toussaint's wonderful New Orleans R&B and ended up creating one of the year's best records and a terrific musical response to the bungling of the Katrina aftermath."
St. Elsewhere by Gnarls Barkley
Scott says: "Hard to describe, just get it and shake, shake, shake."
Movies
An Inconvenient Truth and Who Killed The Electric Car?
Scott says: "There's no pretending it ain't real anymore. See both and get motivated to do something about it."
DVDs
Masters of Horror: Joe Dante - Homecoming
Scott says: "Starring our own Thea Gill. If you missed it on Showtime catch it on DVD. Terrific political bent on the zombie genre."
