And to think I gave them three stars out of respect because they are Pink Floyd... they'll remain in music history, but certainly not thanks to Ummagumma. I respond to aniel that another thing I don’t like about their discography is the excessive number of compilations, The Best, etc... I’ve counted 8. I have Pulse but I’ve never listened to it, can you believe it...

I don’t know anything about the sticker. As for "Careful With That Axe Eugene," the adjective was "passionate." When I copied it, I wrote "whispered," which was intended for "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun," to which I later preferred "melodic."

I apologize for the mistakes in The Piper... and A Saucerful... perhaps I wasted too much energy writing Several Species...

I know very well that criticizing Ummagumma is like putting a hand into a sack full of snakes, but I did it anyway because I'm curious to see if anyone thinks like me.

When I answered Zarathustra, I was referring to Muddy Waters.

I respond to Zarathustra. Winter has collaborated very successfully with black bluesmen, contributing significantly to their success, or to their return to success. Of course, even though he has a fairly "black" voice, he will never have a voice like that of Muddy Waters or Otis Redding; it’s a matter of physical structure. Black people have something extra in their voices for singing the Blues. Conversely, white people are more suited to sing, for example, opera. I don’t believe a black person could ever sing, for instance, Granada like Placido Domingo knew how to do, and still does. There’s nothing racist in what I’ve written; it’s obvious to everyone that whites, blacks, and Asians have different physical structures.

I reply to your comment about Johnny Winter on Eastwood, a director I really like. Winter collaborated very successfully with black bluesmen, contributing significantly to their success or their comeback to success. Of course, even though he has a somewhat black voice, he will never have a voice like that of Muddy Waters or Otis Redding; it’s a matter of physical structure—blacks have something extra in their voice to sing the Blues. In contrast, whites are more suited to sing, for example, opera. I don’t believe a black person could ever sing, for instance, Granada as Placido Domingo could, and still can. There’s nothing racist in what I’ve written; it’s evident to everyone that whites, blacks, and Asians have different physical structures.

I agree that he was great, the best compositions of CSN&Y are his. He did good things with Manassas too; back then I was so taken by him that I grew my sideburns just like he had on the cover of one of his albums. Then love ended, and listening to some of his records again, I realized that I might have idealized him a bit at the time. But his beautiful things remain.

It appears to me that "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" is not by Sonny Boy Williamson, but rather by Level/Love. This is how it is written on the CDs Johnny Winter, The Collection, Johnny Winter-Johnny Winter, and also on the record you reviewed (the vinyl one).

Great review, I agree with everything. My favorite songs are Anselma, Will The Wolf Survive? La Pistola y el Corazon, and generally all the ballads with a Mexican flavor. The album I own has a different cover than the one depicted.
