Adolf Hitler
I preferred it when he made heavier metal albums. more
Jennifer Lopez
Nice ass, yes! But just a one-night stand! In theory, one shouldn't procreate with mixed-race people. Anyway, musically (hahaha) it really sucks. more
Burzum
I hate him and his thoughts. I disgust his music. more
Premiata Forneria Marconi -The World Became the World
Along the lines of Photos but with a more powerful sound (thanks to Djivas's virtuosic bass) and a greater flourishing of thematic variations, the music of PFM now runs the risk of elephantiasis in the imposing The Mountain (Sinfield's new ecological allegory), with an unwieldy choir, and in the mighty metaphysical Title Track. Less cerebral are the melancholic acoustic sketch Just Look Away and Four Holes, which marries the vitality of folk dance with jazz rock. more
Country Joe and the Fish
Their depth is truly unmatched. more
Premiata Forneria Marconi -Photos of ghosts
The first "export" album by PFM for the ELP label, it gathers the best of their first two LPs (plus the impressionistic Old Rain) with a clearer and more dynamic sound quality. New English lyrics by an inspired Sinfield (who reaches the peak of his surreal vein with Promenade The Puzzle). The River of constant change is the hallmark of their ever-changing music, featuring elegant baroque counterpoints, symphonic crescendos, romantic preludes, frantic violins, and dazzling sound carousels. more
Steven Spielberg
It would be better if he didn't try so hard to make himself understood by everyone (especially at the box office). The Empire of the Sun is his best proof, but the first Indiana Jones is a classic. more
CCCP Fedeli alla linea
A bit too pro-Soviet for my tastes (at least back then!) but great rock poets. <<Praise be to Mishima and Mayakovsky!>> more
Death in June
The Death of the West! more
Joy Division
"Did you forget Rudolf Hess??" GREAT IAN! RIP! more
Burzum
A great musician who has created a "European" way of doing metal. I don't share ALL his ideas...but some are right. more
David Bowie -Lodger
Built thanks to Brian Eno's Planned Accidents, it’s a Fantastic Voyage from Berlin to NYC (via Istanbul) more wavering than Low and Heroes but with some obscure new wave gems, like African Night Flight (a little ethno-funk jewel), JapRock Red Sails, and the pair Look Back In Anger-DJ that flirt with disco. There’s room for Belew’s incursions (especially in Boys Keep Swingin, with the others swapping instruments) and House (Byzantine violin in the reggae Yassassin). more
Europe
A group of rather hysterical screeching queens. more
Otto Strasser
Very great! more
David Bowie -Station To Station
From L.A. to Berlin. In a paranoid trance state from cocaine, Bowie (now a gaunt Thin White Duke with a new unhealthy crooner voice) records (without even remembering how) one of his best albums. If the torrid Stay (featuring two monsters like Alomar and Slick) is the apotheosis of his white funk, and Wild is the Wind a tribute to Nina Simone, it's with the title track that Bowie begins to hybridize R&B with electronics, embarking on the Kraftwerkian Autobahn towards new occult sound magics. more
Peter Sellers
Actor with balls of steel. more
King Crimson -The Nightwatch: Live at the Amsterdam Concertgebouw November 23rd 1973
One of the best live shows of the Wetton era. Unmissable. more
King Crimson -Vrooom Vrooom
A double live that features two complete concerts, one from 1995 and the other from 1996. The lineup is at its peak, it's the fourth phase of the band, always aimed at sound experimentation. Powerful, furious. They play with the energy of kids, but with the usual complete control of their instruments. Absolute talent. A must-have. more
King Crimson -Larks' Tongues in Aspic
The album that opens the second phase of King Crimson. After inventing progressive rock, they set the rules to propel themselves into the future. The improvisations become increasingly complex, supported by an incredible rhythm section. Absolutely a must-have. It's impossible not to love it. more
