These versions of Blind Husbands, Foolish Wives and Queen Kelly are the most comprehensive to date. The recent restorations of these films are remarkable although numerous scratches remain (you can't work miracles on masters as damaged as Foolish Wives), but Queen Kelly is remarkably clean for a silent film. Through their innovative style and incredible visual originality, Blind Husbands, Foolish Wives and Queen Kelly are still surprisingly modern today as when they were created by the director of Greed. And each of these classics still carry an unique scent of scandal.

Nous voici ici en présence des versions de ces trois films (Maris aveugles, Folies de femmes et Queen Kelly) les plus complètes à ce jour. De plus, les restaurations effectuées dernièrement sont vraiment très réussies et si demeurent d'innombrables scratchs et rayures en tous genres (on ne peut pas faire de miracles non plus, surtout pour des masters aussi abîmées que celui de Folies de femmes), les copies ont retrouvées une belle jeunesse (surtout en comparaison de celles ignobles, et à bannir de toute urgence, proposées dans une collection de DVD vendue sur Cdiscount, Ciné Club Hollywood), celle de Queen Kelly étant même remarquablement propre pour un muet. Bref, pour ces films des années 20, je ne vois pas comment il aurait été possible de faire mieux ; et pour ne rien gâcher, la compression s'avère parfaitement bien gérée. Du très bon travail.

Forty five years on from the original recordings, yet more lost treasures are unearthed from the estate of Karen Dalton, and once again, it's a reissue of sessions committed to tape by amateur sound engineer Joe Loop, the man responsible for capturing the Cotton Eyed Joe live double album that surfaced last year.

Oh snap! Another live sow! Philadelphia, 29 October 1976. Live at The Spectrum. Joe says he was not looking for this- it was looking for him, staring him down from its lurkage on the special shelf of personally selected-by-FZ masters. This is the only 16 track extant of this line-up… Joe cloned the multi-track transfer onto a hard drive for Frank Filipetti to mix a year ago and this is being written on the 33rd anniversary of the actual (eve of Halloween) concert. More about anniversarial convergences: 1976 was the year that commemorated 200 years of America- the signing of the declaration of Independence on 4 July 1776 in Philadelphia (where W.C. Fields preferred not to be dead) when it was the Capital of these United States. Some might enjoy reading this document while paying special attention to certain of the grievances expressed (and emphasized) therein. Some, now reintroduced and costumed up as Democracy!!! Trick or Treat! Laugh now. Moving right along past the allsorts of the disappeared. certain rights, inalienable & animal, beasties & creatures, long & short forestries, and even the very Spectrum itself, right after the last concert at Halloween…

The Album's title captures the essence of Jack Johnson's work, you might actually feel like you are "In Between Dreams". Composed of songs about daily life, young love, childhood memories and more, you're bound to find a song to put a smile on your face for any occasion. I would definitely recommend it to anyone just getting to know his music.

You've got two choices when creating your own table: build one essentially from scratch, or modify one of the tables that comes with the game. I say "essentially from scratch" because there are certain design parameters you don't have any control over - flippers, ramps, and side-guards are already in place. Fortunately, there are 32 table templates to choose from, so finding one that suits your tastes shouldn't be a problem.

The outcome of the Pacific War was heavily influenced by the results of naval battles between the Imperial Japanese fleet and the US Navy. One of the key elements was Japan's large fighter component, which had gained experience over Manchuria, China and Mongolia in the late 1930s. Flying A5Ms, at least 21 pilots achieved 'acedom' securing air superiority for the invaders. Manufacturer Mitsubishi derived much from these campaigns, producing one of the best fighters of the War, the A6M Zero-Sen. Navy pilots proved to be highly skilled when engaged by the Allied forces, Pacific. Pilots like Nishizawa, Sagita and Sakai scoring more than 60 kills apiece.

Examining Greek and Roman technology designed for use in religious temples to create illusions that seemed miraculous. Included: an iron chariot that appeared to be suspended in mid air at the Temple of Serapis in Alexandria.
