New Movie/Music Picks

Posted by Chris

Jonny Lang

Listening to a great CD right now! It's from Jonny Lang and is entitled Turn Around. It won't be out until September 19th, but it is incredible! Very bluesy/soulsy (is that a word?). Reminds me a lot of Marc Broussard or Stevie Wonder. It has a song co-written by Steven Curtis Chapman, one he does a duet with Michael McDonald, and another has guest Nickel Creek violinist Sara Watkins play with him on. I'll link to the album in the sidebar once it appears on Amazon (not even available for pre-release yet).

Also - I'd highly recommend the new Superman Returns movie. Saw it twice this weekend (which is funny since I hardly ever get to go to the movies anymore) - once with Andrea at the new Providence Cinemas (very nice) and once at the Opry Mills IMAX (with 20 minutes in 3D!). If you have seen the first three films, you'll really appreciate the homage they pay to the original trilogy. There are times when Brandon Routh, who plays Clark Kent/Superman, looks/acts so much like Christopher Reeves it is spooky! Much better movie than I expected. Special effects are incredible!
