Good the report, good the product (3.5-4) a bit like a press office the little page. At least the note that the miniseries is based on an autobiography should have been included. But you're the one from Harold & Maude, so you have a super bonus: you must have had your good reasons for such dry frugality. P.S. There's no relation, but if you haven't seen it, I recommend (I'm not even sure why) the series "This is Us."
Sam & Dave SAM & DAVE - Greatest Hits

You get 5 stars just for generating this quantity and quality of comments from pale blacks who have thrown themselves upon you and for the nonchalance with which you’ve taken this "nice haircut." As for me, I'm with @[IlConte]: it's easy for those Bolshevik magnates to hoard all the vinyl records of all the important blacks, but a nice collection is like a crusty loaf of bread for those who are hungry. But what do they know?

Do you believe me if I tell you that I know I saw them live (maybe in '75 or '76) but I don't remember anything? This says something about my adolescence, probably, but regarding the G.G., I can say that they’re not my cup of mate, but I’ll try to listen to this album again, thanks to your passionate defense.

I couldn't really define Sharkey's truly unique voice, which I liked. But I would never have thought of it as asthmatic, and now that you've made me think about it, I'll have to do some research, curses upon you. - Nice little fresh page. As far as I remember, the album brought home 3.5/4 stars.
Roxy Music For Your Pleasure

I love how you said what you said and that what you said needed to be said. And it makes me smile a little that many, for obvious age-related reasons, arrive at those Roxy by retracing the path of the dandy, with the wonder that follows. But it makes me smile a little more to think that this concentration of style and allure, so impeccable that one might hypothesize aristocratic origins, is the son of a miner. Occasionally, over the years, while listening to the sinuous, glamorous alcove songs of his solo period, due to a mind that enjoys playing tricks on me, I have found myself thinking, instead of the usual lewd fantasies, about his father. - The album in question is fundamental (a term I believe I have used very rarely in comments on DeB).

Thank you, Lector.
I was sure that the story would be handled with care in your hands. That footnote made me smile: I imagined that the gray-bearded, decorated Odradek concealed an aged lady, and her story...
You perfectly captured the darkest side of Doroty/Billy's journey, evoking a movement of empathetic compassion in the literal sense of the term. And you did it with a scope and richness of references that I would not have been able to bring forth.
I confess that as I read you, I realized that when I first learned about the events, I was struck by another aspect of the story: I was amazed by Dorothy's tenacity and the incredible strength that allowed her to impose upon reality an incarnation of desire so irreducible. A sort of bright vision of the same tale, where the final revelation marked the victory of Dorothy/Billy by technical knock-out over the world.
A strangely "optimistic" vision for a perplexed pessimist like myself, but there you have it...
As I may have told you, I discovered the incredible story 23-24 years ago while attending a concert at the piers of the murazzi of The Billy Tipton Memorial Saxophone Quartet, a powerful American female quartet, and after buying the CD, I learned about Billy Tipton and her life.
Thank you once again, on behalf of all the "strange creatures" in this world, for gifting us such a passionate and captivating page.

The description seems perfect to me, the words precise and effective, even though I have never listened to this album. Is it the final chapter?

I'm a pain in the ass, it's well known: enthusiasm shines through, passionate commitment is evident, but five stars for that little page? No, that's just not happening. I won't play the teacher, but quite a few corrections should be made... P.S. when you use the term "mediazione," what exactly are you referring to?
