...effort from 2002, which featured more than the expected one-or-two radio-friendly pop/rock tracks. If in recent years it looked like the Counting Crows were at risk of alienating the cult of listeners who have come to expect the kind of piercing lyrics for which singer Adam Duritz is known, their new album suppresses any fears. “Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings” is a return to form for the band and features songs that are alternately loud and soft but always introspective and bittersweet. The album is divided into two halves. The first...
...write for shit. Second, your philosophy lectures and History & Literature tutorials prep you just fine for the theory that Professor Arthur Kleinman throws down. Lit-critters, this is a fine complement to those depressing “Writing About Illness” seminars.For those who prefer Adam Duritz to Adam Smith, there’s Professor Stephen Marglin’s Social Analysis 72, which offers a “critical approach” to econ. Basically, you get a full year’s Ec survey in one semester, but with a liberal twist. That?...
...star plays an image consultant named Russell Duritz whose clients are scumbags and whose life consists mainly of barking into cell phones, snapping at his assistant (played by Lily Tomlin, who is nobody's doormat) and avoiding a meaningful relationship with a morally centered woman named Amy (Emily Mortimer).

Rusty, a sweet, but slightly geeky, pudgy little kid plays the young Willis who is not at all happy with who he turns out to be-a 40-year old loser "image consultant" without a wife, or a dog. Breslin helps Willis to remember his childhood dreams in order to become the adult that he really wants to be. Banking...
...Chronicles tries to bring together the musical styles that can be heard along the I-10, a freeway that stretches across the southern United States. The original blues and country compositions are enjoyable. There are quite a few covers, too; Duritz's remake of Warren Zevon's "Carmelita" stands out, as does Willie Nelson's interpretation of "Everybody's Talkin'." Even Cuban guitarist Eliades Ochoa (featured in Buena Vista Social Club) joins in, performing "El Guateque de Don Thomas," a traditional Cuban song; as the liner notes explain, Cuban music was popular along the Gulf of Mexico...
