Two talented songwriters lay their pens down for a cover album that's one of the best folk records in recent memory. Gretchen Peters with Tom Russell One to the Heart, One to the Head (Scarlet Letter/Frontera) You may have never heard of Gretchen Peters, but if you ve flipped on a country radio station sometime in the past decade, you ve surely heard her work. In addition to writing Independence Day, the song that catapulted Martina McBride into country superstardom, Peters has also written for Patty Loveless, George Strait and numerous other Nashville giants. In addition to this day job, Peters has a singing career of her own, releasing seven solo-folk/country albums over the past 13 years. But before moving to Nashville in the late 1980s, Peters lived in Boulder, Colorado; it seems even after all these years, Peters mind and heart is still set on her old stomping grounds. On One to the Heart, One to the Head, she turns her gaze back to the American West with a collection of songs celebrating it's land, it's mythology and it's inhabitants. Texas country singer Tom Russell joins her on the journey. Russell, no songwriting slouch himself, has been recorded by Johnny Cash, Dave Alvin and Nanci Griffith, to name just a few. Their two voices Peters pure-and-clear soprano, Russell's whiskey-soaked rasp somehow manage to mesh wonderfully, creating a sound as raw and beautiful as a desert landscape, and the songs they ve chosen for the album bring to mind Marty Robbins, John Steinbeck and the cowboy songs collected by John Lomax. Largely a cover album, One to the Heart, One to the Head has only two original songs on the record (one penned by Russell and an instrumental track composed by Barry Walsh). However, it manages to sound like an album full of new material, thanks to the fresh take Peters and Russell have on the songs. The supporting musicians, including accordionist Joel Guzman and Walsh, former keyboardist for Waylon Jennings, create an atmosphere so lifelike it almost seems like you re listening to them performing in some dusty New Mexico cantina. Though the material Peters and Russell chose for this project ranges from Bob Dylan ("Billy 4") to Townes Van Zandt ("Snowin on Raton") to Mary McCaslin ("Prairie in the Sky") to Bonnie Raitt ("Sweet and Shiny Eyes"), surprisingly, the best song on the album is their version of Tom Dundee's These Cowboys Born Out of Their Time. It's been recorded by various folkies through the years, but Peters and Russell deliver the best version by far. The song itself epitomizes the theme of the entire album, thanks to lyrics such as, the range has been settled for years now / the old wranglers passed on with their kind / But every now and again, you run into these men / These cowboys born out of their time. It's simultaneously a stunning eulogy to a lost world and a tribute to those modern-day men struggling to hold on to a past rapidly becoming obsolete. The frontier may be long dead, but Peters and Russell sure do an excellent job of making it come alive again, however briefly, in song.

If you want to be super productive then start here
Format: Paperback
I have been coding and implementing productivity processes for thirty years and I still found "The Art of Clean Code" engaging and valuable. I've done almost everything in the book, yet like many who have been in the field for a while, the refresher was timely. My work now is vastly different from my work in the '90's, and even what I was doing in the '80's. While the book uses Python examples the code is easy to read and applicable anywhere. Most of the guidelines given even benefit daily life, not just coding. Highly recommended!

Unimpressive
Format: Paperback
This book is very much part of hustle culture. Each chapter contains a shallow dip into a programming principle followed by a metaphorical application of the principle to your career. "10x your income by maximizing your productivity and earning while you learn through a Python side hustle! Here is one anecdotal example of someone who got rich after two months! Sign up for my course and you can do it too!" I don't doubt Dr. Mayer's own expertise, but this is not really a book about coding; it's a book about hustling, and its main purpose seems to be to sell Dr. Mayer's course. What disappoints me is that this book seems to be offered in bad faith. Dr. Mayer may be a true believer, but he probably knows that the vast majority of side hustlers won't make much money, and he probably knows the the tech bro culture around programming is a separate thing from software design per se. I'm equally disappointed in No Starch. I have loved their books up till now; they let us down with this one.

Not only a book about coding, excellent philosophy of life
Format: Paperback
Basically a guide for software engineers of all skill levels on best practices in coding and how to maximize success in your professional life. Straight to the point with great examples. I’ve been a professional engineer for over 10 years and worked at top companies and I wish I read it sooner. This is a must read for anyone wanting to level up.
