Ah, thank you Josi, I agree with everything. Keep in mind that in this case Lola mixes her roots with the French culture where she grew up, and this has created a truly unique sound result.

I don't remember seeing it, Wanderer, but if you say it's worth it, I'll rent it as soon as possible.

same as Wanderer ... but I don’t remember the soundtrack at all ... as for Batman, I would have liked to see a cinematic adaptation of "The Killing Joke" by Moore Bolland, or The Dark Knight Returns by Miller ... it’s unlikely that the first will ever see the light, but the second might be filmed sooner or later ...

Well... I still don't see where the controversy really is, it seems to me we're not saying such different things, hi :)

Because the purpose I usually set with a review is to spark curiosity, learning that I've achieved this goal with someone is comforting regarding my intentions :) Let me know where I can read your stories even through a private message, and thanks again (=thx) bye :))

Beautiful review and a stunning album, in my opinion much better than "The Living Road." I remember struggling a lot to find it back in the day, but in the end, I succeeded and I have never regretted getting it; in fact, years later, it’s still an album that makes its way back to the CD player periodically. Seizing the opportunity to mention beautiful women in music, I would like to recommend two artists I’ve been listening to repeatedly lately: Yasmin Levy (La Judería), a high-level Sephardic singer, and Lila Downs, a Mexican artist with an incredible vocal range. If you enjoyed this album, these two should resonate with you as well... keep in mind that Lila Downs contributed to the soundtrack of the movie Frida (since you mentioned it, it came to mind). Bye!

Thanks Adriano, the adjective "incuriosente" reassures me :)) ; @ Jim: so did you listen to it? Did you like it? Tell me about Paint It Black if you get the chance, bye :)

Thank you, Mullah, but you're exaggerating. You’re a superb reviewer, with a distinctive style, refined taste, and great communication skills. Just think of your review of Jarrett as a prime example, right? Bye :)

Well, now I have more time... let me explain better. I didn't understand the controversy. I maintain that this is a very hard-hitting album, and I believe it's difficult to deny it. Beyond the booklet, I've read numerous statements from Haden that are not exactly soft towards the Republican administration. The very expression of the musicians on the cover is a relevant sign of indignation (connected to the cover of the first LMO album). To say that this is a very hard-hitting album does not equate to a call to arms (I didn't say that). But it remains a hard-hitting album as an invitation to resistance expressed with indignation. Not connecting this album to the previous LMO ones (in its contemporary context, of course) goes against the very statements of Haden and Bley. So I really don't understand what you think I am contradicting, as you say. Bye.
