When one of the world’s great photographers decides he’s going to make a record, the natural instinct is to look for a safe place to hide. I would imagine Michel understands that. But it turns out that would be a mistake, because his album Hollywood Boulevard is a sonically sexy, sultry, imminently danceable collection of original songs, reminiscent of the best of the end of the Millennium Buddha Bar and Cafe Del Mar compilations.

When recommending a hotel in New York City, one has to asterisk whatever you recommend with “It’s in New York,” the city that never sleeps, nor allows you to. New York is many things, but one thing it isn’t is comfortable. It’s loud, claustrophobically crowded, largely impersonal (unless you’re a resident, in which case you can create a few, meager personal grooves) and relentless.

In the mid 1990s, Mike Delavante and his older brother Bob founded the imaginatively named The Delevantes, and put out a record on Rounder in 1995, Long About That Time, that was one of the proto sparks of the musical movement now known as Americana.

By the time the great Nusrat died of a heart attack in 1997 at the woefully young age of 48, he was just beginning to enjoy the golden aura of international recognition. It would be exaggerating to say he was a star or commercial hit in the West, but he was at least the cognoscenti’s darling around these parts. And it wouldn’t be exaggerating to say he was probably the greatest singer in the world.

Forty years ago, on March 19, 1985, SPIN debuted — somewhat miraculously, honestly — on American newsstands. It was the 90th music magazine available to bookstore browsers, and that’s not counting the legion of free music papers, and the legions of legions of fanzines. Suffice to say, the market was not starved. The fact that it’s still here today is, pleasantly, mind blowing. The fact that it ever got out the door in the first place is somewhat mind blowing, in retrospect.

Isabelle Blue — her real name, by the way (well, first and middle names, and the middle one inspired by the Joni Mitchell album, but everybody calls her Belle) — is still in school. As in High School. But she is a true musical prodigy, whose sound and songs display a maturity that seems otherworldly. Or at least from someone much older and much more life-lived. She just recently released her first single, “WOOF”, available on the usual platforms.
