    Thugs in Blue
    “Last Wednesday, an enormous mob surged out of control, menaced citizens, pushed through police lines onto city hall steps, and blocked traffic on Broadway and the Brooklyn Bridge. But uniformed cops stood by, smiling — for the maraud­ers were fellow cops, thousands of them”

    Big Daddy Kane: The AfraKane King
    “For Kane, as for James Brown, Hendrix, Coltrane, Beethoven (Black, caucasianized for the record), and other new music makers, here the future of music (dope) meets Black life's particularly present-day dick­-downs (dog food).”

    Wild in the Clubs: Sex Makes a Comeback
    “The scene now is one of club kids who don't even have a 'fuck the rules' men­tality — they don't know any rules to fuck. They manage to combine a youthful, energetic wholesomeness with a jaded sense of decadence, as typified by their major domo, 22-year-old Michael Alig”

    The Devil and Michael Alig
    “How did the energetic upstart who single-handedly launched his own youth sub­culture in the '80s turn into the messed­-up sociopath and accused murderer of today? How did the twisted creativity of the original club-kid scene tip over into outright evil?”

    Christmas Music: Reasons to Be Cheerful
    “I like Christmas music. I like the schlock and I like the religion. I like sen­timental innocence and I like trancing out on the same standards sung and resung. So here, with what I sincerely hope is the right mix of Christian charity and obsessed consumerism, is a guide to some of the season's better music”

    Eddie Izzard: Comedy Makeover
    “Just an ordinary bloke with penchant for glitzy cross-dressing and rumpled ironies, Izzard is himself a contradiction in comic terms.”

    The Sad, Strange Tale of Judas Priest
    “These people act like we drink a gallon of blood and hang upside down from cruci­fixes before we go onstage,” Rob Halford says. “We’re performers, have been for two decades. We do the show and we wear the costumes our audience expect us to.”
