  If, like me, you're still short on gifts for those picky men (and women) in your life, don't panic and resort to infomercial-acquired gadgets. Instead, check out these new-ish releases for the music- and DVD-lovers in your life -- all available online or at your local Best Buy.

For the Guy's Guy

While he may not have been alive when the Johnny Cash Show aired, he can relive every rare and wonderful performance with this DVD, The Johnny Cash Show: The Best of Johnny Cash 1969-1971. Only here can you find early performances by Johnny, plus guests like Neil Young, Derek and the Dominoes (that's Eric Clapton to us), Lorretta Lynn, Louis Armstrong, CCR, and Bob Dylan, among others.

 

For the Dad or Uncle

Give your guys a refresher course in cool with one of these comprehensive DVDs filled with rare footage: Dreams To Remember: The Legacy of Otis Redding, a fitting tribute to the great singer, or, if he's more of a soul man try Smokey Robinson and the Miracles Definitive Performances 1963-1987.

 

 

For the Nephew (or Niece) Obsessed with High School Musical

U2's Joshua Tree was a landmark album for the Irish megaband and it captured a special moment in their history: right after they stopped looking like punk kids from the Dublin streets and just before they embarked on their massive do-gooding missions. To commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the album's release, they've compiled The Joshua Tree [Deluxe Edition], featuring remastered and expanded material, a bonus DVD, and a hardback book with rare Anton Corbijn photos, Bono's handwritten lyrics, and an essay by the Edge.

Johnny Cash is great for everyone who likes the music of the 60s and 70s (it's also fun to see the unbelievable fashion!)

So sorry to see the magazine is going away...
