Scott Henderson Well To The Bone

Boh.... I don't see what all this fuss is about. Mr_Iko, if you don't like the blues, don't listen to it. I liked this album at the time. It certainly wasn't a masterpiece, but among all the crap out there, it still holds up quite well today. About Scott Henderson: not only is he an excellent guitarist, but also a fantastic teacher. He teaches at GIT in Los Angeles if I remember correctly. From what some of his students have told me, I've come to the opinion that someone like him doesn't play just for himself.

I, on the other hand, had a great time during the movie. I also liked the mix of all those different genres (from martial arts films, to manga, to Sergio Leone's duels, to Charlie's Angels, to fighting video games, etc.). I really enjoyed many of the shots, such as those taken from above through the walls. The plot seems a bit naïve and lacking in consistency, but I'm waiting for the second chapter because you never know if there might be some surprises.
I haven't found anything on Miles Davis, Kurz. The recording I have is very recent, but a friend of mine might have the vinyl. Unfortunately, he hasn't answered his phone since last Saturday... As soon as I hear from him, I'll suggest a comparison between the CD and the vinyl.

x kurz: I don't know if it can be defined as the most beautiful album in the history of jazz. I am always a bit hesitant to make rankings like this. Kind of Blue, 'Round About Midnight, Impressions, A Love Supreme are certainly no less and are just the first ones that come to mind. However, among those I know, it’s one of the most beautiful, also for the almost legendary story of its birth. In fact, you should be a little ashamed ;). This story about the speed I wasn't familiar with, and although similar to a delirium, deserves further exploration. I'll look into it a bit, kurz, if I find any news I'll let you know. Regards.

No kosmo, we don't see eye to eye (it was bound to happen sooner or later, :)). In this case, it wasn't merely about putting together a compilation for the film, something any decent DJ could do, as you claim, but about marrying music and image, with the former becoming the inspiring element for the latter. I read an interview where Tarantino stated that he already had certain music in mind before conceiving the scenes. If I remember correctly, the decision to open the film with Bang Bang came before the storyboard. If this is true (it's always good to keep a little doubt!), then the music becomes not just a supporting element, but a fundamental part of the filmmaking process. Balls or no balls, it's certainly not a job for a DJ. That’s why I said that in this case, the soundtrack will struggle to emancipate itself from the image. In any case, this happens rarely. I'm particularly thinking of Ascenseur pour l'échafaud by Luis Malle (music by Miles Davis). Alright, now I'm digressing... I'll stop :) Best regards.
