Then get your hands on a copy of the new hit book by Scott Pfeiffer and Karolyn Steele-Pfeiffer, The Grit, the Grumble, and the Grandeur: Chicago to New Orleans: A Guide to Travel, Food, and Culture. It'll give you the details you need to burn down Highway 61 from Chicago to New Orleans along the Mississippi. Start planning your journey through the Southern past today.

"Again the Beginner," the new album from Al Rose (with notes/comments by yours truly). Available at Bandcamp, Apple Music and Amazon.

Matchstick Men

I recommend Scott’s ‘Matchstick Men’ which stars Nicolas Cage as an obsessive-compulsive con-man who discovers that he has a 14-year-old daughter (Alison Lohman).   The more you think about the film, the more you appreciate how well done it is, especially the performances, which are particularly crucial to this movie working.   Scott's most moving film.
