...anniversary in business. Waters revolutionized the American way of eating with her emphasis on fresh, organically grown produce and unfussily prepared meat and fish with a Cali-Tuscan twist. If not for Waters, we'd still be wandering in that culinary wilderness between Salisbury steak TV dinners and French foo-foo food smothered in cream. Waters' anniversary meal cost $500 a head and featured lamb, spit roasted over oak and cherrywood fires, served with sauteed chanterelles, and mulberry ice cream cones for dessert. Missed the foodie event of the year? Waters is offering her services on eBay, with proceeds going...
...Black assumes the voice of an array of comic characters on the album, from a sex-obsessed buffoon on "Kielbasa" to a lonely Don Juan rock star on "The Road" (the latter has been praised for its veracity by no less an expert than Dave Grohl, of Nirvana and Foo Fighters, who contributes drumming on the record.) He also manages to parody a swath of celebrated musicians by incorporating their stylistic trademarks into his songs: Joni Mitchell's upward swoop, the keening harmonies of Crosby, Stills and Nash, and, on an slow, instructional song whose title is too crude...
...delicate surgical issues as embryo transplants and lobotomy. The lobotomy episode will also depict that rarity on TV medical shows: a crooked doctor.

The title character of NBC's "Banacek" (one of three rotating shows in the NBC "Wednesday Mystery Movie") is not only...
...young listeners. Then, almost without exception, they dropped from the top of the charts, replaced by rap acts and, later, boy bands and girl divas. Some lingered but grew less relevant (Nine Inch Nails' 1999 The Fragile was a critical smash but a sales disappointment) or less edgy (a Foo Fighters song became the theme music for the NBC romantic comedy-drama Ed, for cripes' sake...
...little tolerance existed in Tijuana for electronic music was obliterated by the arrival in the early '90s of rock en Espanol, an irony-free form of hard rock. Artefakto broke up, but Mogt and his friend Melo Ruiz, 32, kept experimenting with techno and electronica under the name Fussible (foo-SEE-blay) and sending out tapes to record companies. "Our music was too strange for the Mexican labels," Mogt recalls. "They kept telling us to make it more pop or put vocals on. The European labels thought it was too old and unoriginal, because in Europe, you know, there...
