Right on its heels, “Alpha Beta Gaga,” which on Talkie Walkie is a whimsical, whistling meander, became a driving, raving onslaught, riding on a crunching, insistent bass line that Bill Wyman would not have disowned...
...heartbreaking, glitchy ballad for the era of damaged CDs, appeared in hollowed out form, leaving the synth to soar gorgeously, high above the bass...
Departing from the painstaking economy of Johnson’s guitar-and-voice arrangements, Clapton gives the erstwhile-skeletal pieces the full rock and roll treatment: his veteran band (which includes luminaries like keyboardist Billy Preston) adorns Johnson’s work with bass, drums, keyboard and harmonica.

Scientists expect very big things for buckyballs, the microscopic, soccer-ball-shaped molecules of pure carbon that are vital to the promising field of nanotechnology. A new study, however, has raised concerns about their possible toxicity. A solution of buckyballs caused "severe" brain damage to young largemouth bass in a lab aquarium (it also wiped out populations of the water flea, Daphnia, an ecologically important link in the food chain). While it isn't known whether buckyballs could pose a danger to humans, the study urges further investigation of the fledgling technology's potential risks. --David Bjerklie
