Of C. A. I had "Waiting For A Miracle", maybe the first, maybe the best. I don't even know if I still have it... I liked it.

I have it too, I agree too. Well, the Danse were the ones behind the cover of Rolling, 2000 Light Years From Home, not bad at all..... What a lineup of young lads today!

I had never read this little page, but I found a comment that I fully agree with, that of Swanz. I would give the record something like a 3.5; the little page is frankly quite ugly, no matter how you look at it. A nice 2 as encouragement.

Have you heard Beck's remix of this album, done together with Wilco? Read the mail, then if you're up for it, let me know what you think... I haven't listened to it yet, but I'm quite curious. Bye

Great record, awesome musician, wonderful person. I met him in the seventies, at the end of a concert, and I saw him again a long time later, on the ā€œMultikultiā€ tour, and he still seemed very much like his music—open, receptive to exchange, driven by the joy of creation and the desire for travel, as the reviewer aptly puts it in the conclusion. And then he also produced a gem of a daughter, the lovely Nenè... - For those who want to delve deeper, here’s a page that’s really rich in... tips: papaluchi

Good idea to point out the book, which is now available in a re-edition (Robert Crumb - Kafka - Bollati Boringhieri 2008, € 14.00). I recently gifted a copy to a friend's son, and it was actually appreciated more by the father, who is an illustrator... - I find that Crumb's fat and dark, obsessive line offers an additional visual angle of the world from which I come...

Well, Johannsson is a great recommendation, and not only for Fordlandia; his previous works are interesting too, particularly the somewhat ā€œconceptualā€ one, IBM 1401, A User's Manual, which came out a few years ago. But perhaps the most fitting for the approach is one of his early works, Englabörn. The latest one, which has a long title "And In The Endless..." I need to listen to it again; I've somewhat overlooked it, but it's still at a good level. – I’ll also venture a suggestion to the reviewer, in case they aren’t familiar with it: it’s the debut album of a very young (at the time twenty-year-old) Icelander, Ólafur Arnalds - Eulogy for Evolution - There's also a nice page on DeB: Eulogy for Evolution - Ólafur Arnalds - Recensione di Addison

Here, another one I had completely forgotten about. I only have an old vinyl, in that case the band's name was Come To The Edge, the album title "Floating Music," early '70s. And I liked it too. A little music-sentimental archaeology, thanks Jargonking.

Fosca, sorry for the intrusion, but there's probably a space forming between the letters in the link: remove it and you'll see that the link takes you straight to a perfectly working multiupload. The album, as I mentioned, is very good, even though I don't find many connections with XTC (of which I have all the albums, purchased back in the day...)
