Thank you. Bowie isn't among my "favorites," but I understand the comparison ;-)

Marcel Duchamp Nu Descendant Un Escalier

Mmm, Sensual Ajax, I did my research based on the information you provided in your review, and it leads to the conclusion that what you saw is an oil on canvas (@fedee: common sense also involves considering the reviewer's references, and in this case, it's exhibited in Rome on the 2nd... then it's up to you, with friendliness and obviously not in a polemical way): maybe one day I'll see it. And from what pulpit comes the accusation of "internet mythomania" ;-)

It's always nice to find another EWF ;-) (I'll see her in Milan) Moving on to your questions: in "Dragon" she uses the classic Bösendorfer, the Mellotron, but also, and I believe you're referring to this part, a Rhodes (which is an electric piano). In "Curtain Call" only the use of the Bösendorfer is credited, but I too had my doubts... Cheers!

I wouldn't want to intrude, but this discussion about the "type" of painting (which I only knew by reputation) has captivated me, and I've done some research: Marcel Duchamp. Nude Descending a Staircase (No.2)/Nu descendant un Escalier. No.2 - Olga's Gallery Momina - Marcel Duchamp, Nu descendant un Escalier No.2, 1912 zumbazone.com Nu descendant un escalier — Wikipédia Marcel Duchamp - Nu descendant un escalier nº2 - masterworks of painting link rotto

In all these links, it is referred to as "oil on canvas," and I haven't found any that mention "watercolor, ink, pencil, and pastel on photographic paper."

Finally, a review that doesn't get lost in chatter and makes you want to listen to the record ;-)

The last one of hers that I appreciate.

I grew up with the comics edited by Gaudenzio Capelli (subscribing to both the weekly and monthly "I Classici" to recover the stories I had missed for age-related reasons), so I have a fondness for the "short story" format you mention (and I must say it's not easy to be creative within that type of format, but those at Mondadori have done it at a high level for many years). This doesn't take away from the merits that you acknowledge in this project, but from my perspective, these have also become flaws, transforming the character (Paperinik) into something he had never been (in my opinion, distorting him...). Honestly, I've never really seen so much originality (and the Disney trademark) in this project, but rather a series of genre citations (sci-fi), skillfully and well-balanced. But we were in the '90s, and that also influences my memory (I own all the pilot comics you mentioned and I might try to revisit them).

So, first of all, thank you for the comment. Then I have to say that, thanks to you, I realized that there is a small inaccuracy in the review, specifically regarding the harpsichord: in reality, Amos uses a clavichord precisely in the piece "Smokey Joe." If you're interested, I can tell you song by song what type of instrument she uses (I'm not doing it directly because I already have a reputation for being "overzealous" about the Rossa, and I wouldn't want to contribute to that growing further ;-) )

Um, Puni, I believe Franci meant that "you can only give Mafalda a 5" and there were no allusions to your review...
