It's Time to Get Down: Eccentric Soul Revue

After their wild show last April at Park West, Numero is reviving their Eccentric Soul Revue for another performance on Saturday, Nov. 7 at Lincoln Hall (2424 N. Lincoln Ave.)

The Eccentric Soul Revue is a chance for the long-forgotten soul and funk artists who have been unearthed, polished, and reissued by Numero to shine onstage. Expect a rousing evening of late '60s and '70s awesomeness: Renaldo Domino returns, as does The Notations and Syl Johnson. Added to this round of the revue is Sharon Clark and Chicago native Linda Balentine, who was only 16 when she began recording soul and funk tracks in 1969. Pastor TL Barrett and his choir will open the show with a track from Numero's upcoming collection, Good God! Born Again Funk.

The show is 18 and up, and tickets are $30. The show kicks off at 9 p.m. Find out more at the Lincoln Hall website.

She's Money

By Kara Luger

When talking musical influences with Helen Money, it's easy to forget her instrument of choice: cello. She references Bob Mould's Beaster, with its wall of sound and intense, thought-obliterating guitar work. She speaks of The Who and all the crazy rock bands she was exposed to in the '80s. "The stuff I like sounds like life or death," she reasons. And this coming from a woman with a picture of Jimi Hendrix taped to her cello case like he's a saint.
