'Next up on True Romance is a beautifully bright single from long term label friend Dan Corco. 'Hard To Pretend' follows up releases for Robsoul, Too Many Rules and Downtown Underground and mines right down to the core of the True Romance sound as it marries together amorous chimes, bittersweet vocals and giddy, ecstatic piano chords. In true Corco style, the production feels unchained and expressive and the result is entirely magnetic. Propelled with characterful lo-fi drums that provide added warmth, depth and power, the track gleefully gathers momentum while synth sweeps and flourishes add a deliciously sun-drenched seasoning to a track with summer anthem written all over it.'

Join Ray and Deb in exploring the past life phenomenon. The Romance of Missionary Heroism John C Lambert The title page gives this book the subtitle, “True stories of the intrepid bravery and stirring adventures of missionaries with uncivilized man, wild beasts, and the forces of nature in all parts of the world.” The thrilling accounts in this collection include stories of Jacob Chamberlain’s medical ministry in India, the dangers faced by Alexander Mackay in Uganda, James Chalmers’ work among the headhunters of New Guinea, John Paton’s mission to the South Sea cannibals, and the Hawaiian queen Kapiolani’s challenge to the gods of the volcano. “Romantic” in the sense that these brave missionaries faced the unknown, but never “romanticized” – all sacrificed home and luxury, and many suffered the loss of family, fortune, and even their lives. (Summary by D. Leeson) Blithedale Romance, The by Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804 - 1864) LibriVox The Blithedale Romance is the story of four principal characters who work with -- and sometimes against -- each other on Blithedale, a communal farm antecedent to those that sprang up later in the 1960s, and similar to one on which Hawthorne himself lived in 1841. These communes arose out of the pressures on society and the individual brought by the Industrial Revolution. Some were organized around religious philosophies, some were secular. Among the secularists, the Transcendental movement mentioned in the novel espoused the idea that the individual's intuition, rather than religious dogma, was the true path to spiritual enlightenment. Our four characters, like so many who fled to these communes, struggle to free mankind from bondage as they struggle with the unaccustomed day-to-day tasks of farm life. But they are plagued by a mystery that follows them from the world, and ultimately leads to tragedy. (Summary by Christine Dufour)
