Synopsis

I launched HeadButler.com in 2004 as a cultural concierge site that would recommend the best in books, music and movies. And I do mean "best." Because everything ever published, recorded or filmed is available online, I don't have to do what magazines and most web sites do: focus on the new releases (you know, the ones you pick up six months later and wonder why you bought them.) On the site, I guide you not only to the truly great stuff out now but also to terrific old books, music and movies you may not know. Over a decade, I've published more than 1,500 reviews. It seemed like a good time to pick the 100 "essentials" that I believe will give you pleasure for decades.
