Marshall Crenshaw hops on a time machine with new collection

Clocking in at 73 by the time his birthday hits on Nov. 11, Marshall Crenshaw is at a point in his life where self-reflection comes in many forms. One way is a reissue campaign via Yep Roc Records that’s not only found his first two albums, the self-titled 1982 debut and 1983’s sophomore bow Field Day, getting the deluxe treatment, but also seeing a new collection of home recordings from that time period get unleashed on the public called The Bootleg Sounds of Marshall Crenshaw: 1984-87. A week-long project that was conducted at drummer Jerry Marotta’s Dreamland Studios, Bootleg Sounds was a labor of love that involved baking the tapes to preserve them within the confines of this cozy space packed with analog equipment that was formerly a church. This walk down memory lane proved to be a rewarding experience for the Detroit native.

Lynbrook Says Ciao to New Italian Café, Affogato

Atlantic Avenue recently welcomed a “sweet” addition to its already existing stores, Affogato Café. Located next to The Bowl, Affogato Café has been the talk of LHS ever since its opening in early September. Affogato Café is an authentic Italian café prioritizing fresh and simple ingredients in its delicious treats. This café makes for an exciting, new place students can go to during off periods. Rather than the usual bagel or slice of pizza from neighboring businesses, at Affogato, students can buy a fresh-baked pistachio croissant or a ham and cheese sandwich served on imported Italian focaccia, all for a reasonable price.
