Restlessness is the first step towards pleasure. We make comfort out of discomfort, pleasure out of pain. That journey isn't always a straight line, but at least we're going somewhere real. "I had to move, Lord I couldn't be still" is the unsettled way that Video Age's new album and title track, Pleasure Line, begins. But as the song unfolds, it uplifts us into a romantic space of possibility and love. Just as "love" is both a noun and a verb, Pleasure Line is both a road to be traveled and the act of crossing that road. Singer and multi-instrumentalist Ross Farbe says, "Once you cross that threshold and become vulnerable in love, there's a whole new challenge. There's a reason that song comes first on the album, because the rest of the songs exist in that place." These catchy, memorable songs radiate big "glass half-full" energy. Video Age's third album, due out from Winspear on August 7, 2020, pairs neon-bright 80s pop melodies with a vast range of influences (including Janet Jackson, David Bowie, and Paul McCartney) to create an optimistic sound all their own. The influences vary song to song, but they're all tinted with the same rosy hue, and Ross says, "I'm often trying to create a more idealized version of the world I'm in." Video Age's first two albums were about loneliness and discovering oneself, but Pleasure Line takes on a whole new attitude, considering both Ross and songwriting partner Ray Micarelli are getting married this year (just a few weeks apart from each other, too). "We're feeling the love, " Ray says, laughing. But these aren't expressions of one-dimensional puppy love-this is euphoria with depth, ecstasy with complications. In the twinkling "Comic Relief, " Ross sings, "I know the world is killing me / I love you baby, can't you see / Ain't nothing but a comedy." And in the funk-inspired "Shadow on the Wall, " Ross sings, "I got the gloom, baby, covering me / Cuz you're a cruel silhouette as could be." Darkness is always lurking somewhere beneath happiness, but in the Video Age, even melancholy sounds like something you can dance to. The songwriting duo has been playing music together for the past ten years after meeting in college-Ray says he was initially drawn to Ross' "old school cadence" and their shared love for dancefloor hits. Experimentation and play is crucial to their approach, as is collaboration. Joined by band members and multi-instrumentalists Nick Corson and Duncan Troast, Video Age recorded the album together in Ross' New Orleans home studio. Pleasure Line is a salve that protects against cynicism-listening to this album, you can't help but feel the world around you is full of romantic potential. In the hands of Video Age, even the mundanities of touring are transformed into a mood-lifting ode to their 1995 white "Aerostar." When asked how he manages to stay so positive on the road, Ray says, "Playing music is a joy and a privilege." That kind of sincerity bleeds from every song on this album, creating not only nostalgia for good times past, but also hope for a better future. On the last song, "Good to Be Back, " Ross sings, "I've made my mistakes / I live and I learn / That people can change." The song is meant to sound like a theme song to a 70s sitcom, and you can almost see Ross and Ray opening the door and smiling at the camera: "What can I say, it's good to be back."

Fantastic Author!
Format: Kindle
I love this Tessa Cason’s work. EFT is such a wonderful technique to work through difficult things. Tessa is so clear in her writing about what this technique is about and how it works. She gives great explanations of EFT and how it works. Makes it easy to understand and use EFT for yourself. I highly recommend her books to people who are both new and those who are experienced with EFT.

Basic
Pros - very short and basic. Cons - a little disjointed. I was hoping to know what I needed to know to start tapping after reading this book, but it left me somewhat confused. Luckily it was so inexpensive that I still feel like I got my money's worth.

WOW.
Format: Kindle
I’ve read several books on EFT tapping and have tapped along with various led tapping sessions and recordings. Not one thing ever changed AT ALL. I was very skeptical and couldn’t understand why so many people were so sold on EFT and raves how amazingly it had worked for them and I was getting NOTHING out of it at all. Recently after I experienced several tremendous losses within a short time period and was not able to deal with the overwhelming and debilitating grief, I hit the wall and was incapacitated physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. My doctor raved to me about it again and strongly recommended that I learn more about energy work, EFT, and DO IT...IMMEDIATELY. Somehow browsing on Amazon, I found this GEM. This little book has made ALL the difference. Now I understand what it is, why it works and best of all HOW to make it work for me. The author gives an issue that everyone needs to tap on before anything else...and darned if she wasn’t right. That cleared and opened a lot for me. I am absolutely going to be purchasing more of her work on specific issues and I really feel that I am finally going to heal these issues on a deep and profound level. The overwhelming sense of grief and loss goes much further back than I had thought. I had thought it all centered around quite recent extreme losses but there was actually so much more I hadn’t addressed that happened way before that that deeply impacted me in ways that I never realized before this book. I wish I had found this book years ago and will be forever grateful to the author. Tapping looks weird, seems weird, feels weird and it’s hard to believe that it really works...but yes...it works. I am just getting started with EFT and am very hopeful and anticipatory of receiving great benefits from it. One of the very best (and incredibly affordable!) purchases I have EVER made.

Grammer and spelling errors were distracting; some info was helpful, but overall I found better (and free) material via Gary Craig's website, emofreedotcom.
