The weekend's here again folks. Depending on where you live, this nasty weather might be keeping you indoors. If that's the case, we highly recommend you rent a copy of Stop Making Sense, a concert film featuring Talking Heads from three live gigs in 1983 at Hollywood's Pantages Theater.

Stop Making Sense could very well be one of the greatest live concert films to date. Everything in this film is flawless: the most important element - the music, the performances from David Byrne and the entire band/background singers, the energy level, the lighting, the angles of the shots, the staging. Although Byrne came up with much of the staging concept (and the funding) for this film, director Jonathan Demme (Silence of the Lambs, The Manchurian Candidate, Neil Young: Heart of Gold), put it all together the way a concert film should be presented. If you're a Talking Heads fan, or you just appreciate good music, you won't be disappointed.

We at Grant's have the stereo on 24/7/365 listening to all genres of music. From Dylan to Devo, Stevie to Strummer ~ one thing remains constant: we love good music. Who has time for sub par tunes these days?

On that note, we received an email from Jim Gaudette a master guitarist and a loyal customer of Grant's. He introduced us to his music and gave us a little insight into his life. We love discovering new great music, thanks Jim.

Jim has been a staple in the New England music scene for over 20 years. He is an accomplished guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, and music instructor, who has also been taught first-hand from many of the original music legends of the genres he specializes in. Praised by and received words of wisdom from: Johnny Cash, Brian Setzer, Carl Perkins, Scotty Moore, Billy Lee Riley, Reverend Horton Heat and legendary drummer Buddy Rich. Jim notes his favorite genres to play are: gypsy jazz, rockabilly, surf and classic country style. What more can we say, the guy has talent!

If you want to catch an uplifting show or learn from one of the best contact Jim.

Cole Foster the “fabricator of all fabricators” for Grant's. The Salinas Boy staple produces (for those who don’t know) some of the highest styled vintage cars & motorcycles. You want to talk about having the eye for aesthetics, Cole’s inner~vision is unmatched. Keeping true to classic tradition he artfully blends in dashes of modern techy gadgets. Kudos to Cole and his crew.

Like Cole says about Grant’s- “Grease that’s not Greasy.”
