Dean Carter was a true oddness of '60s rock and roll. He was a singer-guitarist with the heart and practically of the sound of a '50s rockabilly wildman, still recorded medicine that updated that rockabilly feeling with '60s garage tilt and dashes of soul, and regular a bit of psychedelia here and there. Carter didn't redact out a whole draw of records in the '60s, and those he did order out were heard by few. Yet one of those singles in particular, 1967's "Clink Rock"/"Rebel Woman" (on the small Milky Way label), is highly precious by '60s garage collectors, even if its rockabilly influence made it a slight anachronic. Carter too did a good trade of unreleased roger Huntington Sessions of considerable quality, whether he was acting comparatively straight rockabilly or his freakier hybrid of rockabilly with late-'60s sounds. Much material from those roger Huntington Sessions came to light on the all right Big Beat 2002 CD tone ending Call of the Wild!





Carter was born Arlie Neaville and began performing rockabilly in the late fifties in Champaign, Illinois, where he remained based for practically of the 1960s. He recorded for the Ping label in 1961 under his real appoint, on the more than accomplished Fraternity label in 1962 as Arlie Nevil, and then for Limelight as Dean Carter in 1964. That same year, he and Arlie Miller, a member of his stripe the Lucky Ones, started a home studio in Danville, Illinois to record both Carter and other musicians. The couple as well ran the small Milky Way label, which released product by Carter and others. At times the roger Huntington Sessions got pretty strange even by garage stone standards, with uke, piano accordion, dobro, and clarinet all heard in addition to the usual crunchy guitars on his hideous get over of Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock."





Carter went to the West Coast for a patch in the late 1960s, recording a duad of singles in Washington State with Gene Vincent guitar player Jerry Merritt, for Merritt's Tell International label. He returned to the Midwest by the end of the decennium to resume recording with Miller, and went back to billing himself as Arlie Neaville on record. By the early 1970s he went into evangel music, where he's remained ever so since.

Big Brother - Bb House Tense After Spitting Row

Relations in the Big Brother house are extremely tense after the explosion of anger which resulted in Dennis' ejection at the end of the week.

The loud-mouthed Scot was removed from the house by producers after spitting in fellow contestant Mohamed's face.

His aggressive behaviour was the climax of an enormous row, originally between picture-defacing Rex and most of the other housemates. Mohamed stepped in to defend the professional chef, but got only abuse – and saliva – for his efforts.

Mohamed and Dale faced off the morning after the row, the latter calling Mohamed a "f*****g little weed". Big Brother told Dale it deemed his behaviour aggressive.

Rex and Rebecca also had a tiff over Rebecca's involvement. She had stood up in the middle of Dale and Mohamed's original confrontation. Rex told Rebecca he thought had she not done so, Dennis would probably still be in the house.

"Don't even try that one Rex," she replied. Still some hostility there then.

Stuart, one of the worst antagonisers in the incident, insisted he was "trying to diffuse the situation" while Luke summed up the drama best.

"This is better than any soap opera, stuff the soaps, watch this! This is real. It's almost like there are massive storylines but this is a reality show," he said.

"Brick Lane": An immigrant wife charts her own path

For several years, the Pakistani writer Hanif Kureishi ("My Beautiful Laundrette," "My Son the Fanatic") appeared to corner the market on movies about Muslim immigrants in modern England. No longer.

Sarah Gavron's "Brick Lane," based on a popular novel by Monica Ali, offers a refreshingly feminist variation on what was beginning to look like a male-centric genre. Set in the Bengali area of East London, it focuses on a long-suffering wife, Nazneen, who rebels against an arranged marriage by taking a lover.

Her older, chubbier husband, Chanu (Satish Kaushik), appears to be an insensitive oaf and a hopeless businessman. Her handsome young lover, Karim (Christopher Simpson), is romantic and charismatic and seems to offer a future.

It's a familiar situation, just familiar enough to encourage yawns (Nazneen's chief inspiration appears to be television viewings of "Brief Encounter"). But Gavron and her screenwriters, Laura Jones and Abi Morgan, steer away from rote characterizations and enthusiastically reach for complications. So do the actors, most of whom bring a spark to their roles.

As Tannishtha Chatterjee plays her, Nazneen is never the simple village girl her husband wants to see. She may appear to accept passive explanations for sexist traditions, but when she becomes desperate for money, she starts her own sewing business.

Chanu resents her ability to succeed on her own. Although he brings on his own tragedy ("I resigned this afternoon," he says when he's passed over for a promotion), he seems genuinely to feel guilty that he can't put food on the table. He also deludes himself that he's becoming an Internet visionary and "part of the World Wide Web."

For all his questionable moments, Chanu is far from the monster he could have become. Indeed, he begins to sound like the voice of reason in a post-Sept. 11 world in which Karim turns unstable and Nazneen begins to entertain the idea that their relationship was mostly a matter of wish fulfillment.

Gavron, a prizewinning British television director making her feature-film debut, is at her best evoking the social chaos in England that followed the World Trade Center's destruction and Tony Blair's angry speeches. She also suggests that Sept. 11 didn't change that much for people like Nazneen and Chanu, who were persecuted before and after the attacks.

"Brick Lane" is ultimately a minor achievement, and something less than the Dickensian epic it might have been. But it's rich in characters who ring true whether they're on-screen for a short time (Nazneen and Chanu's daughters, a pushy loan shark) or they're front and center through most of the picture.

Blues/funk guitarist Craig Erickson erudite to play while working in his father's phonograph recording store in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He formed his first-class honours degree band at 13, and began playing around the area. Erickson signed a contract with Blues Bureau Intl. in the early '90s, releasing Roadhouse Stomp! in 1992 and Retro Blues Express the following year. Though the albums featured John Onder on basso and Atma Anur on drums, Erickson's regular band -- with which he has supported blues legends such as Koko Taylor, Little Ed & the Blues Imperials, Elvin Bishop and Lonnie Brooks -- includes bassist Al Robinson and drummer Kerri Collings. Erickson recorded 2 Sides of the Blues for a 1995 release, and followed up with Force Majeure one year by and by. He appeared on tribute albums to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert King (Hats Off to Stevie Ray, Fit for a King), and besides co-wrote and played on Blues, the solo record album by Glenn Hughes (Thick Purple, Trapeze).
