Something as intractable as "The Curse of the Bambino" would not fall by some common or mundane means. It could only end by a fierce assault on history. Certainly the last ten days in the life of the 2004 Boston Red Sox qualify as spectacular. Down to the mighty New York Yankees three games to none, facing elimination once again, the Sox turned baseball history on its head to become the only team in the history of the World Series and post-season baseball to win a seven-game series after losing the first three games. This backdoor sweep of the Yankees defied all odds, defied experts, and defied anything within the realm of realistic probability.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • “LITTLE LOVE”, Release October 30 Swedish Singer/Songwriter Jessica
    JESSICA FALK - “LITTLE LOVE”, release October 30 Swedish singer/songwriter Jessica Falk and Nashville based singer/songwriter Jenn Bostic originally met in a very special and unique way. You see, the girls both do a bit of the same thing. They both write songs and tell their respective stories in the lyrics of their songs with the goal of helping other people. Jenn is best known for her song “Jealous Of the Angels” which reached # 1 in the United Kingdom’s “Singer-Songwriter” charts. Jessica happened to be attending a concert in Nashville where Jenn was appearing at the Grand Ole Opry. Afterwards Jessica, who was very impressed by Jenn’s music, wrote to her to ask if she would like to try writing some songs together. This collaboration resulted in Jessica’s previous single “Make a Change” and her latest single ”Little Love" which is due to be released on Friday, October 30. Listening link "Little Love": https://promo.theorchard.com/XmpUKdVyJ9sKn46A3QkB As an artist and songwriter in pop and country, she has had the opportunity to work with many top level musicians and producers such as: Charlie McCoy (Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash), Pat Buchanan (Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, Billy Ray Cyrus), Chad Cromwell (Neil Young, Diana Krall, Mark Knopfler), Greg Morrow (Carrie Underwood, Bob Seger, Kenny Rogers). Jessica also has a long standing history with the producer/mixer of “Little Love”, Scott Baggett (who is known for past work with Alison Krauss, Bonnie Raitt, Buddy Guy and many #1 writers in Nashville). As a trained music teacher, Jessica has also had the opportunity to work as a music therapist which she finds to be very rewarding.
