by uwmryan on 22. Mar, 2006 in Albums, All, News

The new Ben Harper album, Both Sides of the Gun came out yesterday. I’m pleased to be able to offer a contest for you to win the Deluxe 3-Disc edition. The deluxe edition comes with a bonus 6 song EP featuring album outtakes and live tracks, sticker, and a copy of the hand written sheet music for two of the songs.

In order to be considered for the contest all you have to do is leave a comment with a book that you would recommend to me. I will choose a winner at the end of the week at random.

    Levett and Dubner –

    An interesting view on all things life. Definately gives you something to think about
    Hard to sum it up but this snippet does a good job:

    “Do Sumo wrestlers cheat? Which is a whiter name for a girl, Molly or Holly? And what do crack gangs and McDonald’s restaurants have in common?

    If anyone hasn’t read the classic Catch-22 by Joseph Heller, I would highly recommend it. I think I laugh louder every time I read it.

    The South American Trilogy by Louis DeBernieres, which includes: “The War of Don Emmanuel’s Nether Parts”, “Senor Vivo & The Coco Lord”, & “The Troublesome offspring of Cardinal Guzman”. It’s a laugh-out-loud (yet often poignant) series about a fictional country in South America in the magical realism style of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. From the author of “Corelli’s Mandolin”. It’s my favorite series of books.

    A lot of people seem to be mentioning Chuck Palahniuk (like “of course, anything by…”). I just finished “Haunted” and it was essentially a waste, a few good short stories mixed in to a lackluster wash. Something I read a while ago that really intrigued me was the Miles Davis autobiography “Miles.” With his recent introduction into the rock n roll hall of fame, I thought it was appropriate. Take care!

    I recoment a little read that i found recently, i laughed until i cried on one page and cried until i laughed on the next. Its weird, funny, gross, sad, shocking, frustrating and embarrasingly relative. Its a collection of secret confessions, its raw and un-put-downabble hehehe. Its lke listening to the people all over the world wispering, its like knowing what the person next to you in the record store is realy thinking wth the smile on their face or the sadness in their eyes. If you want to know that is. Well just open and youll see.xxx hugs, oh you may need to know its called: “stoned, naked and looking in my neighbours window” xxxx

    I like to think of myself as a smart girl, but there are a ton who are smarter than me. At least I’m not like Dubbya who has called himself “the Decider”. HAHA – That’s so funny!
