Damn good, I've been wanting to do this for a while. Unjustly underrated in the discography of Can, soundtracks perfectly captures the moment of transition, remaining less avant-garde than Tago Mago but that's not a flaw, quite the opposite. As usual, it features rhythms and refrains that many current bands have taken inspiration from. Tango Whiskyman in the chorus sounds insanely like something from Blonde Redhead; the first time I heard it I was blown away. It's worth re-evaluating alongside delay 1968, which hides a lot of other interesting tracks.

Damn Lewis, I was a bit too small for that concert, but damn was it worth it.

Kid, my standard for new releases never goes above 4/5, which for me is the maximum score possible on an absolute scale. If you go read my recent review of My Morning Jacket, I gave it a 4 (but it would be a 4.5), even though it's my personal album of the year. @Cleo: my dear, if you were wrong, why the shared blame? A shitty financier left me dry in the street 10 years ago. And even if it was his fault, I got screwed over with shared blame. And I've never seen any money. But he left us with four tires from a 164 afterwards... @zaireekA: dear, maybe you’ll like it; I repeat, it loses a bit, but some tracks are really beautiful.

No, the third one waits otherwise no one will read it... @surfer: you said it right, Z is an album that I hastily dismissed at the beginning of the year. Instead, I took it along with this double album. Let’s say the record is quite monumental, but if you also liked the previous "It Still Moves," you won't be disappointed, aside from the country ballads that can be a bit sappy at times... but they remind me of a beautiful yet tough period, and perhaps it’s the only band in the last three years that I associate with a moment in my life almost independently of the music. Something that, as I mentioned, happens less and less frequently... Were things better when they were worse?

Well, damn, how can you compare with the complete discography of Cosmic Jokers, Wegmuller's Tarot, Sergius Golowin, Guru Guru, and so on for months? I thought I was going to end up in therapy; my girlfriend wouldn’t let me play records at home anymore... Meanwhile, I’m all about the pointless releases of today, and especially paying close attention to the immense amount of stuff bought and streamed this year. Year-end cleaning.

Beautiful, Dave, your best. I have a strange relationship with Zappa's production; I'm terrified by its vastness, and I hide away in a couple of albums and not much else. Absolutely Free, though, I should get. I gifted this one years ago to my brother-in-law, and I need to listen to it again. Honestly, the part presaperilculopop was a bit boring for me, but I’ll make amends. Speaking of bands that took their names from some songs contained within, I would also mention Monster Magnet; the good Wyndorf is a Zappa enthusiast.

So I will answer the question above. The singer of Jeeg Robot d'Acciaio is.......is......is......none other than.............the old and dear...........FRED BONGUSTO! I could hardly believe it, but it seems the source is reliable, or at least it’s written in the treatise I mentioned above, "Mazinga Nostalgia" by Marco Pellitteri. Of course, I have never consulted Fred for confirmation.

Hi Lewis. Nice proposal as usual, lately I've been feeling and buying little old stuff, I've been overdosed on kraut rock for 6 months and I need to take some bicarbonate to digest its acidity. I think I've developed a gastritis from psychedelia! I have the other half of Radioactive that deserves a little review... Anyway, Radioactive stuff has both small gems, but often totally worthless crap. Do you agree?
