With six clubs in the area that feature jazz music, Cambridge has established itself as a hotspot for jazz artists who want to strut their stuff...
...Black Crowes have returned to their rock and roll roots. From Chris Robinson's swanky, Jaggeresque strut to their soulful infusion of the Hammond B-3 organ and backup choir, the Black Crowes are rocking harder than ever. In their war against pop radio, the Crowes are indeed holding--if not gaining--ground. Maybe the Rolling Stones said it best with, "It's only rock and roll but I like it." On behalf of the standing room only audience, the Black Crowes, and the hordes of other steadfast rockers, I must agree...
...fractious nostalgia trip to make a few quid and see if the flame still burns. This retro comedy, cannily written by The Commitments' Ian La Frenais and Dick Clement, gives such fine British actors as Bill Nighy, Stephen Rea, Jimmy Nail and Bruce Robinson the chance to strut, scowl, sing some jaunty tunes (by '70s survivors Mick Jones, Steve Dagger and Jeff Lynne) and define what it means to be mates in a middle age the rockers never thought they'd live to see.

On the other...
...handlers, led by director George Miller, have succumbed to a desire to test the powers of his innocence against creatures more ferocious than those that inhabited Farmer Hoggett's essentially benign barnyard. Or maybe it was the powers of their special-effects wizardry that they wanted to strut, for the cast members of Babe: Pig in the City are larger, busier and--shall we say?--more emotionally complex than their predecessors. They are mostly residents of the Flealands Hotel, a flophouse in a hellish--well, anyway, heckish--imaginary metropolis where Babe and Mrs. Hoggett (Magda Szubanski) are obliged to take...
