Latin American songs and leftist tunes from a jazz band? Bassist Charlie Haden and his Liberation Music Orchestra brilliantly mix politics with improvisation on this star-studded, hour-long live date recorded in July 1992 at the Montreal Jazz Festival. This inspired and innovative 13-piece ensemble features tenor saxophonists Joe Lovano and Javon Jackson, drummer Bill Stewart, trumpeter Ryan Kisor, and trombonist Robin Eubanks. The music is passionate and poetic, thanks to the evocative arrangements by Carla Bley. The selections include “Dream Keeper,” which derives its title from a Langston Hughes poem; a heartfelt rendering of the African National Congress anthem “Nkosi Sikelel’i Afrika”; a collection of traditional Latin American canci�ns; a Spanish Civil War song; and Haden’s moving “Spiritual.” Haden’s big bass tones ring through to this enthusiastic audience. In the DVD’s bonus interview, Haden outlines the musical philosophy that has kept him going all of these years. –Eugene Holley Jr.
One of the outlets for bassist Charlie Haden’s multifarious musical interests is the politically charged, progressive Liberation Music Orchestra. In July 1992, the Orchestra–a powerhouse of some of the top names in jazz–brought the collaborative sound of their album “Dream Keeper” to the Montreal International Jazz Festival. The African National Congress anthem, “Nkosi Sikelel’i Afrika,” opens the program and sets the tone, followed by a suite-like series of traditional melodies from Latin America for a unique, powerful performance. Tracks: Nkosi Sikelel’i Afrika, Dream Keeper, Feliciano Ama, Canto Del Pilon, Hymn of the Anarchist Women’s Movement, Spiritual.

Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael September 21, 2008

Bathroom escapades aside, there’s no denying that George Michael has been responsible for some of the biggest party jams of the ’80s and ’90s. Have you ever noticed what happens to a room when “Faith” erupts from the speakers? Aside from the funk-fueled “Fastlove,” the material from his most recent album, Older, is well and truly overshadowed here by the megahits from days gone by. The first disc starts off slow, with “Careless Whisper” and his remake of “I Can’t Make You Love Me” the only real high points among otherwise bland ballads. It’s disc 2 that exudes the essence of Michael, with “Fastlove,” “Too Funky,” and “Freedom 90″ providing a nonstop dance-athon, and “I Want Your Sex” and “Faith” picking up the slack. The package also includes his rather unexciting (but hugely popular) duets with Queen and Elton John, his perfect pop pairing with Aretha Franklin, and two new tracks. Set aside some serious time for this one, folks. The hits don’t stop. –Rebecca Wallwork

Since 1941, Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) has been recognized as the most authoritative source of information on nutrient levels for healthy people. Since publication of the 10th edition in 1989, there has been rising awareness of the impact of nutrition on chronic disease. In light of new research findings and a growing public focus on nutrition and health, the expert panel responsible for formulation RDAs reviewed and expanded its approach–the result: Dietary Reference Intakes. This new series of references greatly extends the scope and application of previous nutrient guidelines. For each nutrient the book presents what is known about how the nutrient functions in the human body, what the best method is to determine its requirements, which factors (caffeine or exercise, for example) may affect how it works, and how the nutrient may be related to chronic disease. This volume of the series presents information about thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, pantothenic acid, biotin, and choline. Based on analysis of nutrient metabolism in humans and data on intakes in the U.S. population, the committee recommends intakes for each age group–from the first days of life through childhood, sexual maturity, midlife, and the later years. Recommendations for pregnancy and lactation also are made, and the book identifies when intake of a nutrient may be too much. Representing a new paradigm for the nutrition community, Dietary Reference Intakes encompasses: Estimated Average Requirements (EARs). These are used to set Recommended Dietary Allowances. Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs). Intakes that meet the RDA are likely to meet the nutrient requirement of nearly all individuals in a life-stage and gender group. Adequate Intakes (AIs). These are used instead of RDAs when an EAR cannot be calculated. Both the RDA and the AI may be used as goals for individual intake. Tolerable Upper Intake Levels (ULs). Int

Ally’s singer/songwriter ambitions seem to come closer to fruition when she meets Joey a musician who’s moonlighting as a janitor at the mall in order to support his own rock star dreams. While Joey understands her songs (and heart) like no one else Ally’s happiness and the fate of the store are threatened when the mall owner’s spoiled daughter Madison — who will stop at nothing to get what she wants — gets involved.

After a woman is diagnosed with a terminal illness, she decides to spend her last few weeks having fun and spending her life savings.
Queen Latifah demonstrates her loose, easy charm in Last Holiday, a remake of the 1950 comedy with Alec Guinness. Though at first glance it’s hard to imagine anyone less like Alec Guinness than Queen Latifah, they both communicate a world of inner thought with nothing more than a sly sideways glance. Georgia Byrd (Latifah), a department store employee, leads a life of frustrated desires–particularly for a bashful salesman from the outdoor furnishings department (LL Cool J, Deep Blue Sea). But when she learns she only has a few weeks left to live, Georgia gathers her money, quits her job, and flies to a swank European resort she’s always dreamed of visiting. Naturally, her new carelessness with money and fearless candor lead everyone around her–including her senator (Giancarlo Esposito, Do The Right Thing) and her former boss (Timothy Hutton, Ordinary People)–to think she’s a mover and shaker. Last Holiday unfolds the way you expect it to (dozens of movies and TV shows have similar plots), but Latifah and the capable cast keep it alive. Also featuring Alicia Witt (The Upside of Anger), Jane Adams (Happiness), and the ever-dependable Gerard Depardieu (Cyrano de Bergerac) as a passionate chef. –Bret Fetzer

Discover the world’s most luxurious trains and relive a bygone era, when the journey itself was the most significant part of the experience; rather than simply getting there. A journey where the passenger becomes a real traveler and is able to experience the much more gracious way of travel – in a living recreation of the golden age of rail.
The American Orient Express is a privately owned company and no relation to the British owned Orient Express. The train is a collection of cars that were purchased from museums and private collections throughout America. With nine exciting itineraries, the journeys trace jazz and blues to their origins in New Orleans, through the National Parks of the Pacific Coast, from hushed canyons to boiling mud pots, keeping the tradition of the golden age of rail with luxury and style.

CIA agent Jack Ryan’s assignment is to investigate the murder of one of the President’s friends, a prominent U.S. businessman with secret ties to Colombian drug cartels.
The third installment in the cinematic incarnation of Tom Clancy’s CIA analyst Jack Ryan and the second starring Harrison Ford, this follow-up to Patriot Games is a more complex, rewarding, and bolder film than its predecessor. Ford returns as Ryan, this time embroiled in a failed White House bid to wipe out a Colombian drug cartel and cover up the mess. The script, by Clancy and John Milius (Red Dawn), has an air of true adventure about it as Ryan places himself in harm’s way to extract covert soldiers abandoned in a Latin American jungle. There are a couple of remarkable set pieces expertly handled by Patriot Games director Phillip Noyce, especially a shocking scene involving an ambush on Ryan’s car in an alley. The supporting cast is superb, including Willem Dafoe as the soldiers’ leader, Henry Czerny as Ryan’s enemy at the CIA, Joaquim de Almeida as a smooth-talking villain, Ann Magnuson as an unwitting confederate in international crime, and James Earl Jones as Ryan’s dying boss. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, theatrical trailer, closed captioning, optional French soundtrack, and optional Spanish subtitles. –Tom Keogh
