		Their task is a difficult one: convincing unfriendly city officials to make the mega-retailer abide by the law.
		In Hartford--an economically depressed city with a 73 percent Puerto Rican and African-American population--the retailer plans to break ground by the end of July on a 165,000 square-foot store; without a supermarket, at first, but with enough room to build one in the future.
		As a backup, city lawyers argue that the ordinance doesn't apply to the corporation, because it only covers city land, not city housing authority land.

	Big City by Merle Haggard CD
		As a result, Haggard's best Epic albums--of which BIG CITY is one--are more diverse and more interesting, if less instantly familiar, than his hits packages of the era.
		The underlying themes of BIG CITY are regret, loss, and a yearning for an idealized past.
		BIG CITY also looks toward the past with a tribute to Western swing ("Texas Fiddle Song"), a reworking of an early Haggard composition ("You Don't Have Very Far To Go"), and a cover of Johnnie and Jack's 1957 hit "Stop The World (And Let Me Off)."

		Big City Blues is a superhero anthology that owes a pretty fair debt to Kurt Busiek’s Astro City, as it looks at superheroes with a slice-of-life approach.
		Naraghi writes all the stories here, and the book ran about ﬁfty-ﬁfty with me. Each story is about the conﬂuence of events of several characters, and while it’s a clever sequence the ﬁrst time around, I found it got a little tired by the time we got to the end.
		Naraghi has also put together a pretty interesting little offering for Big City Blues, something that is becoming more common in the indy circles of comics: a soundtrack.

		The first thing a person realises when he enters a big city is the gradual increase in crowd, both of the human as well as the automobile varieties.
		Those who don’t know what to do out on the streets any longer, or at least are unable to keep up the pretence further, migrate to the parks and outer greenery, the couples to gaze into each other’s eyes and the single elements to gaze at the couples.
		When these folks are tired of remaining unnoticed, they thrust themselves back onto the city and are immediately swept along in the tide that waits for no one and carries everyone with it.

	Honky Tonks, Hymns & the Blues: American Music From Back Roads To Big City
		Their music reflected the diverse population of the Southwest -- with German polkas, and waltzes, Spanish guitar and violins, and bits of blues and jazz from the fl sharecroppers that they had worked beside in the fields.
		As young workers left the farms and ranches for the more lucrative oilfields a new music was heard from the raucous roadhouses where they spent their pay.
		This final segment of Honky Tonks Hymns and the Blues explores the crossovers of style and content, the “race records” that brought fl music to all of America, and the racial divisions that remain in the music industry today.

		But in return, Texas cities could wield unusually broad home-rule powers to manage not only their own affairs, but those of the regions that surrounded them.
		But now the Lege is starting to see what the cities have long been aware of -- that big-city issues, and conflicts between cities and suburbs and countryside, are natural consequences of growth and are arising everywhere.
		And around Texas' big cities, the counties have even less power, because the cities control their extraterritorial jurisdictions (ETJs) and can, or could, annex almost completely at will.

		“Elmo’s Blues:’ cut two, is a 1992 studio version of a Catfish classic, recorded at Big Mo Studios and featuring Pete Ragusa of Nighthawks fame on drums, Johnny Castle on bass, Dan Hovey on guitar, Mitch Collins on keyboards and Fish on vocals and guitar.
		“Six O’Clock News,” cut seven, (live from the Big Mo sessions of 1992) and “To the Left:’ cut eight, (1994) revisit the music from Catfish’s Eyewitness Blues period when he was a fixture on the D.C. scene in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s.
		The solo acoustic side of Fish’s life is represented by “Twenty Years,” “My Father:’ and “New Dust Bowl Blues!’ The first was recorded in a small studio in the hills of Virginia, and has the feel of a cleaner version of something you’d find in an old Library of Congress field recording by Alan Lomax.
