Last night I met singer Nellie McKay at a listening party at Jazz at Lincoln Center for her new CD, a Doris Day tribute called Normal As Blueberry Pie. Besides being talented, Nellie is lovely. I hope you’ll check out my vanityfair.com interview with her.
And if you’re interested in books (e.g., The Rock & Roll Book of the Dead), movies (e.g., A Serious Man), and/or TV shows (Entourage, Californication), you may want to read my reviews and Bob Rosen’s on the Looseleaf Report.
