part they are beautiful and sincere.
The Jazzys have a poetic grasp on
the language.
The only thing misleading
about the group is the name.
Jazzyfatnastees calls to mind a
group oriented in rap music, but to
put the CD in the player provides
an experience altogether different.
If music is a true reflection of
its creators, this record and the en-
tire picture is beautiful and stylish.
If The Once and Future is a good
indicator of the future of the
group, subsequent albums can
only be better, but not by much.

Mercedes Martinez and Tracey Moore make up Jazzyfatnastees, a duo
which recently released The Once and Future. The CD blends jazz,
computer-enhanced backbeat and traditional strings and piano.
The music itself is sparse, not
loaded with many layers of music
that is almost superfluous in that it
distracts from the voices. The
music alternates from seductive
and mellow jazz to energetic, elec-
tronic beats. However, no song has
a fast pace or wanders out of the
realm of jazz.
The lyrics for all songs were
written by the duo or one of the
women collaborating with another
writer. These songs talk about
everything from waning romance
to sisterly love. While lyrics are a
bit simplistic at times, for the most
College students often look for a
place to eat a quick, restaurant-style
lunch that is inexpensive.
Those seeking a Mexican fix
can go to Eduardo’s, a small
Mexican restaurant on Grapevine
Hwy. by NE Campus.
The restaurant is tucked away
from the main flow of traffic in a
strip mall.
Eduardo’s is an open-air family-
style restaurant that reminded me of
a place to hold a family dinner or
study group. The decor has a bright,
festive Hispanic theme that does not

Jazzy uniquely refreshing
by Stephanie Sterie
entertainment editor
A band that can create intrigu-
ing lyrics, original melodies and
deep, rich voices in a harmony
that is uniquely its own would de-
serve credit as one of the few
bands to do so in this decade.
In a musical world where
artists are harshly categorized into
one genre and usually stay there
for the rest of their musical ca-
reers, the Jazzyfatnastees have
created something truly fresh with
its CD, The Once and Future.
The intriguing part about the
CD is the first impression that it
delivers: two beautiful women
with exotic voices sing against a
smooth blend of jazz, computer-
enhanced backbeat and traditional
strings and piano. Can the rest of
the album keep up?
The duo itself is two young
women, Mercedes Martinez and
Tracey Moore, who have been
singing together since 1992. This
project has been under construc-
tion for quite a while, and the
quality of the music reflects the
time spent on it.
As far as music originality goes,
Martinez wanted the group to focus
on healing, changing and growth.
Therefore, the album explores ro-
mantic themes, world ills and the
. unfortunate consequences of love
gone bad.
“There’s such an oversatura-
tion of the same old thing in urban
music. From the time we started
out, we knew we wanted to be dif-
ferent, to offer an option,”
Martinez said in an interview.
Nov. 12-13 Aliss in Wonderland, a mod-
ern-day version of the classic children’s
story, makes its world premier at the
Bass Performance Hall. The ballet fea-
tures a score with songs popularized by
Sammy Davis, Jr., and The
Commodores, among other contempo-
rary pieces by popular singers. The ballet
is accompanied by two premier works by
local companies who combine classical
ballet with jazz style. Call the Fort
Worth/Dallas Ballet at (817) 763-0207 for
tickets and more information.

Good, cheap eats
ready at Eduardo's
compare in quality with Don Pablo’s
or Mi Cocina, but the food was
pleasing and unique.
The salsa and chips were good,
not too greasy or spicy, but I would
suggest that diners request a bowl of
guacamole be sent out as well. I es-
pecially liked the guacamole with its
strong citrus flavor that complement-
ed the taste of avocados, tomatoes
and onions.
I had chicken enchiladas with
a tasty cream sauce and sides of
beans and rice. If I returned, perhaps
I would stick with a cheese burrito,
as meat quality was about on par
with Taco Bell, .which allows the
restaurant to keep food prices down.
The staples of the Mexican menu,
such as tortillas, beans and rice, were
all pleasing..
I saw many original dishes on
the menu that I had never seen be-
fore, and the portions were generous.
My food was ready quickly and
served hot.
The crowd in the restaurant was
sparse, but perhaps that was because
the time I went (1:30 p.m.) was after
the lunchtime rush. I have heard that
the dinner crowd is often heavy.
The radio was tuned to a station
playing some kind of Hispanic tech-
no music, which was strange. The
servers seemed to enjoy it, and it
added to the festive ambiance of the
restaurant.
The food prices were moderate,
with lunch costing around $12 for
two people. Dinner prices were high-
er, but descriptions of the platters
sounded as if they contained more
food.
My date found some particles in
his food which were not part of his
order. In his burrito was what looked
like a com tortilla and a strand of a
corn husk. I did not find anything out
of the ordinary in my food. Then
again, I was not looking.
