hjhhjij, I'd like to give you some tips on the two guitarists, Mike Bloomfield (my favorite), a compilation or live adventures... or the lost concert tapes... of Stills, without a doubt Manassas. Then I’ll mention some others that seem unmissable: Johnny Winter, the first, worth it just for "Be Careful with a Fool" - Gov't Mule, "Live... with a Little Help..." - Allman Brothers, "Live at Fillmore East" - Paul Butterfield, "East West," - George Thorogood, one of the first - Rory Gallagher, "Irish Tour" - Eric Clapton and John Mayall, "Bluesbreakers" - Fleetwood Mac, "Live in Boston"... these should be enough to give you an idea...

For the series the classics of rock history. I prefer the first part of the album, with Bloomfield at his peak, especially Albert's Shuffle. The second part with Stills is good too, but I prefer him as a songwriter. The review is well written, perhaps a bit too educational.

I recently saw an interview with Pete Townshend that ended with the statement that he probably wasn't even aware of what he was doing (the great things he was). I consider him one of the most inspired songwriters of all time. I could listen endlessly to Behind Blue Eyes, I Can See For Miles... and others.

surely one of the greatest musicians I know.

Reading your review made me want to listen to them again. In the 70s, I liked them quite a bit, but today, not as much. I feel the same way about Blackfoot and Molly Hatchet. However, I still enjoy Lynyrd Skynyrd (Street Survivors).

I liked the ending. I'm not familiar with the book, but I believe Dick is a writer who is finally receiving the recognition he deserves.

I know it because I like Caetano Veloso; I hadn't gotten to this album yet, but to songs like "Coracao Vagabundo," which is one of the most famous. So I went to listen to it, just once for now... "Tuareg" is, as you say, a fusion of bossa nova and Arabic music; it feels like seeing a caravan of camels. The psychedelia can be felt in tracks like "The Empty Boat" and "Meu Nome E' Gal," distorted by spirited arrangements and frenetic vocalizations. "Paìs tropical" is recognizable even though it’s very manipulated too. On first listen, it seems interesting, worth recommending to those who enjoy dissonance and contrast.

I only know Right Down The Line, Baker Street, and City to City, which is enough to consider it a great album. I would say that you wrote what I think about Rafferty as well.

It was a time when I was reading poets and writers of the Beat Generation, "On the Road," "Hydrogen Jukebox"... someone recommended Bukowski to me, so I read "Stories of Ordinary Madness." The book disappointed me; I don't like his prose, and I don't like the stories either (with a couple of exceptions). To me, he is overrated; I looked on Wikipedia to see which literary movement he belonged to, because he certainly wasn't part of the Beat Generation. It said dirty realism, a movement influenced by J.D. Salinger that also includes Raymond Carver. That being said, there's no comparison between these two and Bukowski; for me, it remains a mystery how he became successful.

the review is too long for my tastes, I haven't seen The Kingdom, but Von Trier has never convinced me.
