Tony Toni Tone's memorable and timeless melodies are also reminiscent of the legendary soul acts. Songs such as "It Never Rains (In Southern California)," "Anniversary" and "(Lay Your Head On My) Pillow" are some of the few truly classic slow jams of the 1990s. Not only are their melodies enduring--the band's lyrics are also finely crafted. They are often seductive but never raunchy, sweet through not saccharine, and are always on the right side of the fine line separating light-hearted from vacuous.

This week on television: Titanic, an all-new two-part miniseries on CBS. Why another recounting? "This is an endlessly fascinating and timeless story," defends executive producer Frank Konigsberg before hinting at the tragedy's real resonance for Hollywood types.

Arruda's Peter, so very often positioned near the door and the outside world beyond it, provides a contrasting authority figure...

Those of us who had learned the discipline in the old style, following the principle of immortal authors and timeless masterpieces, were subjecting what we read and saw to the force of theory that we pretended to practice. (Nineteen-sixty-eight came to Minnesota several years late; after all, it was under the benevolent leadership of a drugstore liberal, Hubert Humphrey.) The discipline needed to bolster its enrollments or face...
