CD's, Blogs & Books, Oh My...

Did ya know...Jim has a rock & roll band in NYC?  Contraband (yeah, everyone loves the name) plays original songs, CD disc.jpg (21958 bytes)mostly written by Jim (with his writing partner Mark LaRiviere).  They released a CD in late 2008, Welcome to the Neighborhood.  You should check it out.  Recently, Contraband has been added to the playlist on IM Radio, a great independent musician online station.  Gotta check that one out, too.

Still available is the book Jim and brother Peter wrote, 99 Fabulous Food Websites You Can't Eat Without.  Irreverent and practical, while a few years old, still showcases many great websites for foodies.
