  1. All Aboard: Steve Cropper-Felix Cavaliere Ride Midnight Flyer

    Legendary Stax Records guitarist Steve Cropper (Booker T. & the MGs) and iconic blue-eyed soul singer/keyboardist Felix Cavaliere (the Rascals) have joined forces for the second time to roll out Midnight Flyer, the follow up to their 2008 collaboration Nudge It Up a Notch. Recorded in Nashville, the 12-track package showcases the Memphis-raised Cropper's guitar genius and the Jersey-bred Cavaliere's sweet soul vocals, leaving the listener to enjoy a delicious melding of two musical giants still at the top of their game.

  3. Review: 'Tyler Perry's Temptation' is very Perry, indeed

    Say what you want about the man and his films, but Tyler Perry is nothing if not unshakably Tyler Perry. The air of self-assurance bordering on arrogance that wafts from movie after movie as he confidently delivers his specific blend of light comedy and heavy dramatic moralizing can be strangely admirable. If only all of us could know what we do so clearly.

  4. The Black Crowes Play The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester April 2-3

    The Black Crowes burst onto MTV in 1990 with their cover of Otis Redding's &quot;Hard to Handle" and then kept the momentum going with the ballad "She Talks to Angels," selling millions of copies of their debut studio album <em>Shake Your Money Maker</em> and proving they were not a one-hit wonder. The band chugged along until 2002 when they went on hiatus, then reformed in 2005 with a tweaked lineup. They'll be at the Cap for two sold-out shows on Tuesday and Wednesday, but keep an eye on the internet for last-minute ticket releases so you can avoid losing an arm and a leg buying secondhand on Stub Hub. <strong></strong>

  6. Five questions for Derek Trucks

    If you're a music fan of a certain age &mdash; say, perhaps, 41 &mdash; it may strike you as a bit disconcerting to listen to Derek Trucks talk about his kids. For there's a good chance that the first time you heard Trucks' name, he was an 11-year-old headlining act with an uncle in the Allman Brothers Band and an alarming talent for playing the blues. What the kid lacked in experience, he made up for in soul, favoring the slide-guitar style of his hero Duane Allman and none of the screaming, over-the-top theatrics typical of many young guitarists.

  8. Mac Arnold: blues traveler

    Mac Arnold sounds completely at home on his sweat-raising 2011 recording, &quot;Blues Revival." Captured on-stage at the Grey Eagle club in Greenville, S.C. &mdash; about 15 miles from the rural hamlet of Pelzer, where he grew up and currently resides &mdash; the flame-throwing bluesman expertly evinces South Side Chicago blues flavored with deep Southern soul. A former sideman with icons of both styles &mdash; Muddy Waters and Otis Redding, among them &mdash; Arnold learned his craft from the masters.

  10. They're black and they're proud

    Photographer Gordon Parks' &quot;Ethel Shariff in Chicago" depicts the daughter of religious activist Elijah Muhammad in a nun's habit, standing at the fore of rows of black women in the same attire. In Parks' "American Gothic," the late lensman who documented the civil rights movement and Jim Crow segregation in the rural South parodies Grant Wood's iconic painting, capturing a black worker with a mop and broom in both hands standing in front of the American flag.

  12. Aretha Franklin, America and the origin of the 'spirit feel'

    The gospel-truth, if you believe most of the history books: Aretha Franklin didn&rsquo;t really find her true voice until she began working with producer Jerry Wexler at Atlantic Records in 1967.
