...fair, Colin James, advertised as the "New Swing Pioneer," cannot be accused of simply seizing on the current popularity of swing music for sheer profit; the predecessor to this well-timed sequel appeared way back in 1993. That said, the ennui-inducing contents of this album seem to imply just such a fad-inspired rush job.

These dorks are not the ones who stock their clubs with drunk girls at a four-to-one ratio in order to secure a chance at scoring...
...fair, the people behind the anti-sweatshop movement at Harvard have given no real indication that they will follow the lead of their colleagues at other campuses. Hopefully, they won't; ending the University's involvement with sweatshop labor is a noble goal, but not one that justifies violent recourses like taking over buildings. Seizing University Hall would be as unwise a tactic...
