When Patty Griffin recorded her first album 13 years ago, her producer gave her a stinging suggestion. "He told me, 'It's so much nicer when you sing quietly,'" she recalls.

Redesigning Robert Moses
Howard Kissel's Cultural Tourist: A few years ago, taking relatives on a walking tour of the West Village, I was struck by how many playgrounds there were.

The man from 'Atlantis'
Jim Farber: He raps (sometimes), uses DJ techniques (occasionally) and samples James Brown (right at the start of his latest CD). But does this make k-os a member of the hip-hop nation? You'd be hard-pressed to find evidence of it from most of "Atlantis: Hymns for Disco," his terrific third album.

Here's the
full Harry
After all the fuss, we were finally off to see the wizard. And see him, we most certainly did. In fact, you could've heard a broomstick drop in the packed auditorium of Gielgud Theatre Friday night, as Harry Potter's clothes disappeared in a flash.
