Jonathan Higgs recommended 2001 by Dr Dre in Music (curated)

Album Favorite

"This was a huge album amongst me and my friends. It was kind of the soundtrack to ten years of my life. From high school, through uni and then right out of uni was all soundtracked by that record really. It was the Bible in terms of hip-hop. It was one of the first introductions to hip-hop of mainstream appeal. It was so full of bangers. It's overly long and the production… well, it's Dre, isn't it? Anything from it is so ingrained in my generation. I'm always happy to hear this album which I think is the true sign of a good album. Although I wouldn't be so pleased to hear Kid A, because it doesn't have that same mood. 2001 has that 'all moods covered' thing going on."

Book Rating
The main leads in this novel are two detectives, Wolf and Baxter, and they are absolutely incredible. The story is told from multiple perspectives, showing the hard work of many, smaller characters mentioned throughout the book. Wolf and Baxter are very complex and messed up people, but their witty and sarcastic life stories were a real joy to read. The bond between Wolf and Baxter is truly special and reading about their interactions with each other and other characters provided so much insight into their true personalities. I really loved the way Daniel Cole developed and presented all the characters in this novel.

The narrative of this book was full of suspense and surprises. It is pretty fast-paced, and the characters are being killed off quite quickly.

Fascinating Drama
Well I had to check this out as it's one of the highest rated TV shows of all time on Imdb. I was only a kid at the time and know very little about it. Especially in terms of what actually happened. This is a great detailed true life story of what happened, what was at stake and the huge heroic efforts of so many people. Featuring the brief build up to the accident, the efforts to contain it, the effect of the aftermath and the attempts to cover up what happened by the state.
The main trio of the cast are great especially Jared Harris. At only 5 episodes it is one you will want to binge watch. It's fascinating to find out what happened.
