		<description><![CDATA[&#160; Fashion and Music by Janice Miller Berg Publishers (July, 2011) &#160; Though I typically concentrate on the Everyman&#8217;s experience with clothes and fashion, it is oftentimes easier (or simply more fun) to see trends in fashion and aesthetic movements in celebrities. The melding of the physical and the lyrical is critical to music performers. [...]]]></description>

To wit, I&#8217;ve recently revived my Columbo viewing. Peter Falk as Columbo (1971 &#8211; 78; 1989 &#8211; 2003) is always deliberately [...]]]></description>
