The iguana of your steps / your groin of live orchid / where my eyes drown / and time becomes ambiguous. I won’t move from here anymore / even if you were to leave / on this grass that looks up / and seems to pray! If this is not a poet

Oh sorry easycure, I hadn't read your comment. Well, even in Turin a touch to the family jewels is a must.

When it comes to Masini, a hand on the balls is always a must, you never know.

Now we just need someone to say that once there was Frank Zappa and then we're all set. As for Masmas' comment, I really didn't understand it, but it's a very '80s comment—plenty of appearance, little substance. Even Hetzer saying that once there were King Crimson and now we have Wham sounds like a forced comparison, no pun intended. Alright.

The Clapton "God" is the one up until 1970, where he didn't miss a beat, releasing only masterpieces rated 4 stars and above, constantly changing groups: from the Yardbirds to John Mayall & The Blues Breakers, from Cream to Blind Faith and finally to Derek & The Dominoes (the album featuring the cover of "Little Wing" that ZannaB mentions, made together with Duane Allman, but which Hendrix will never hear because he will die just days before the album's release), along with a few collaborations here and there like "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" with The Beatles. After 1970, it was almost exclusively heroin and mediocre albums, with a few flashes of brilliance here and there, but not much else. A great musician, perhaps the greatest blues guitarist, but a mediocre songwriter. Those 2 or 3 filler tracks, as you say, would take on another value if you said that for example "Steady Rollin' Man" is a cover of Robert Johnson, truly a fixation for Slowhand.

By the way, I read somewhere that in one of their live albums you can hear the audience not enjoying it and booing them off stage, and out of spite, Elvis Costello, for whom the Suicide were opening at the time, did a pretty short and very rushed set, and the audience staged a sort of half-riot. Of course, the live album doesn’t include Elvis Costello, but that should be the story. I’m not familiar with that album, but I’ve worn out their debut; it's one of my favorite horror records :D

what a bad punchline this last one is

"And some songs by Ferro"?????? from Tiziano Ferro????? I really hope you’re referring to Popeye, honestly.

The nice thing is that Ian Anderson doesn't even want the money; he just wants it to be recognized that it was copied when the Eagles were on tour with Jethro Tull.

Beautiful, especially the initial part, even though to be honest it feels more like an editorial than a review. The thing about guitars/samplers is an interesting point, even if it might not be entirely true since it’s much cooler to buy used electric guitars rather than new ones.
