Photographs from Bogota's Museo del Oro
By Jack Brummet, Precious Metals Ed.
Bogota's Museo del Oro contains more gold than all the other museums I've seen across the world put together. Gold is so interlinked with the history and destiny of Colombia that it's inevitable they have this museum. It ranges from fascinating to amusing.
My love of museums most often focuses on those that contain paintings (portraits in particular, and sculptures), but this was a glorious exception. Naturally, I was most fascinated with the faces and masks, but I also include some other pieces here. Even a couple that are not made of gold, like the carved stone diorama immediately below:

Music History: The Small Faces
By Jack Brummet, Music History Editor
Small Faces were leaders of the Mod (and later psychedelic) movement '65-'69, and were heroes of the Britpop movement in the '90s. There are a lot of interesting tendrils in and out of the band. After they busted up, three of them joined Ronnie Wood and Rod Stewart (both from the Jeff Beck band) to form Faces. Lead singer Steve Marriott--an amazing vocalist--formed formed Humble Pie with Peter Frampton (who, after Humble Pie, went solo and released one of the best selling rock albums of all time). After Faces, Ronnie Wood joined the Rolling Stones, and Rod Stewart left serious rock behind to become, well, whatever you call what he does now.
