Currently listening to & viewing................





VHS or Beta The September Issue
I first heard this band's music in "The September Issue", the documentary that follows Anna Wintour and her Vogue staffers while they produced the largest issue in history, the September 1997 issue. Download "Burn It All Down", this song has a great 80s Duran Duran/Flock of Seagulls sound to it. If you haven't seen it yet, "The September Issue" is an awesome fashion documentary. While we all know Anna Wintour is cold and heartless and of course this is what you see of her in the film, we also get in inside look at the relationship between Anna and Grace Coddington, Creative Director for Vogue. I didn't know much about Grace until I saw this movie and this is when I really started to like her. I appreciated her courage to stand up to Wintour in order to bring more fashion to the magazine and less celebrity worship. Grace believes fashion is an artform and I applaud that.
