Bruce Springsteen’s 18th studio album is a portrait of the artist at the top of his 21st-century game: rock-soul dynamite and finely drawn pathos bound by familiar, urgent themes (national crisis, private struggle, the daily striving for more perfect union) and the certain-victor’s force in Springsteen’s singing. High Hopes is also a deep look back over Springsteen’s past decade, his best onstage and record since the first, with a keen eye turned forward. The cumulative effect of this mass of old, borrowed, blue and renewed – covers, recent outtakes and redefining takes on two classics – is retrospect with a cutting edge, running like one of the singer’s epic look-ma-no-set-list gigs: full of surprises, all with a reason for being there.

Read David Fricke’s full 4.5 star review of the album.

His name is Earl.

Earl works on the hydrogen mining platforms of Jupiter. His initial contract was for maintenance and welding, his remit has expanded now (after 22 years of service) to include platform security. 

Earl likes the music of Johnny Cash and the books of Jack Vance. Earl also enjoys making sushi for Janice who works in accounts.

The Coen Brothers’ new movie, Inside Llewyn Davis is their deepest musical dive since 2000’s O Brother, Where Art Thou? The title character is an emotionally blocked, career-stymied folk singer in early-Sixties Greenwich Village, and the film is packed with performances. We spoke with the directors about the new movie and the power of music in film.

Interested to see what the Cohen brothers are up to now.
