Shop Around: Growing Up with Motown in a Sinatra HouseholdBruce Jenkins was twelve years old, living in Malibu with his parents, when he heard the original "Shop Around" single, by "The Miracles featuring Bill 'Smokey' Robinson," the first Billboard No. 1 R&B single for Motown's Tamla label.

Bruce Jenkins was twelve years old, living in Malibu with his parents, when he heard the original "Shop Around" single, by "The Miracles featuring Bill 'Smokey' Robinson," the first Billboard No. 1 R&B single for Motown's Tamla label. Released nationally in October 1960, the single would ultimately make it into the Grammy Hall of Fame, but for young Bruce, the first times he heard the song were a revelation. Jenkins grew up surrounded by music. His father, Gordon Jenkins, was a composer and arranger who worked with artists from Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday to Louis Armstrong and Johnny Cash, but was best known for his close collaboration with Frank Sinatra. His mother, Beverly, was a singer. For Bruce, "Shop Around" ushered him into a new world of loving Motown. In Shop Around, he brings to life the first thrill of having the music claim him, provides the back story of the recording (and rerecording) of the hit single, shares sketches from his life with his father and mother, and traces how his love of music has grown and evolved over the years and how he still loves driving around San Francisco with Motown cranked up on his car stereo.Binding Type: Paperback

Like to snuggle up in soft warm blankets? This one's for you
Color: Grey, Size: King (108" x 90")
I purchased this after the one I had previously received as a gift was ruined. That's how much I love this blanket. It doesn't get that weird rougher texture after washing that some of these fleece blankets get. It's ridiculously soft and so warm and comforrtable. The sizing is totally accurate and I slept like a toasty warm baby using this product. It's a blanket so use is self explanatory. Put it on your bed or couch or wherever you want and snuggle in for warmth and comfort. It's a very high quality product for a very reasonable, even affordable price. If you like high quality products that everyone can afford then this is the blanket for you. This even improved the quality of my sleep. It does have some stretch, but it's not overly stretchy. Believe me, this blanket would be a welcome addition to your home.

Very good but not amazing
Color: Bright Gold, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
Not the most amazing blanket possible but pretty close.
The only negative I can think of is that it's a bit thinner than I expected, besides that it is quite comfortable, smooth, soft and visually appealing.

SO SOFT & cozy without being super heavy
Color: Grey, Size: California King (102" X 96")
I’m picky about blankets because some fleece ones either feel cheap or make you way too hot, but this one is actually really nice.
It’s really soft, washes well, and has that cozy feel without feeling overly thick or heavy. I got the California King size and it’s actually big enough to fully cover the bed without constantly fighting for blanket.

My perfect summer blanket
Color: Grey, Size: King (108" x 90")
I had 0 expectations for this blanket and I was pleasantly surprised.
This blanket is very lightweight, much like the novelty throw blankets you find in the kids section. It's very soft, compared to chinchilla fur. Incredibly soft and it didn't make me hot. Nor did it keep me cool. For me, it's the perfect blanket for summer weather. So far, the quality seems really nice and it fits my needs as a king size.

Soft, lightweight, warm and long blanket
Color: 04 - Cream, Size: Throw XL (50" X 70")
Very nice blanket. It's soft and long enough to cover you when laying on the sofa and warm. It also washes and dries well on warm water normal dry. I highly recommend this blanket
