...album. What the album lacks in musical talent (the band and the background singer have a few problems with consistency and staying together, and Fields himself isn't exactly James Brown), it definitely makes up for in character. Funk was played to bring smiles to people's faces and motion to their feet, and Let's Get A Groove On certainly does so. With such "super heavy funk" tunes as "Let a Man Do What he Wanna Do" and "Steam Train," Fields has put together an album full of some great funk grunts, groans, squeals and moans that will...
...Perpetual Motion, the first Mainstage show of the semester, Harvard dancers take their foot work and finesse to the Lobe Mainstage for the first time in over 20 years, beautifully proving that they well deserve this long-awaited spot light.

The hypnotizing waves of bodies in motion, and the pulsating madness of Pink Floyd's beats joined in ways crazy and serene, creating the single best student production I've ever seen on the Mainstage. The tremendous amount of dance talent on this campus came as a welcome and all-too-belated surprise to me; it's about time Harvard dancers received the venues, publicity and support...
