...school of so-called blue-groove vocalists (it includes Skye Edwards of Morcheeba and Tracey Thorn of Everything but the Girl), who use the delivery and seductive lilt of jazz to bring warmth to chilly avant-garde pop. Esthero's debut with her co-writer and producer, Doc (Martin McKinney), weaves hip-hop, drum and bass, funk and ska into tunes full of emotional intensity.

...Rockefeller, a backwoods mountebank and snake-oil pitchman whose history John D. tried to suppress. "Big Bill" Rockefeller, crack shot and con artist, claimed to be a medical doctor and, in the gullible towns of upstate New York and farther west, promised to cure any cancer for $25. Eventually, "Doc" Rockefeller (who made a habit of impregnating the servant girl at home) became a bigamist and started a separate family as "Doctor Levingston"--the name that appears on his tombstone.

"It's not going to make your erection harder or last longer. But I can guarantee you that if you walk in and say, 'Doc, I'm having trouble keeping my flag up,' most physicians are not going to insist on testing. What's to keep you from using it? Absolutely nothing. And just as with fen/phen, while a lot of doctors said they would not give that drug, a lot of clinics were prescribing...

Like the clothing, the shoes sold at 'Black and Blues' follow a somewhat illogical mix of styles. The majority of shoes are hard-core Doc Martens and combat boot look-alikes such as Angels' shiny crimson interpretation ($110). On the other hand, one can find hippie gear like the Brazilian walking shoe ($48) and several pairs of clogs ($45 to $58). For those planning to make a preppier statement with their footwear, the store offers black Paloma mules ($58), as well as open-toed sandals by Steve Madden...
